Hi guys,
just joined the forum so hello to you all, I recently bought myself a lathe and have been playing about with it I started to produce honey dippers they look easy to do and soon managed to make something that was usable for its purpose.
I used a piece of Beech all was good I then used a food safe finishing oil to give it a nice finish, let it dry and got out the honey pot. The dipper worked well but then when I washed it under cold water the finish was terrible the wood went all bitty or fury for want of a better word.
Can anyone give me some advice on what finish I should use on my next project that will come into mild contact with water?
