Looks like you stained or dyed your cherry, unless, of course these pictures a a year or so after the fact.

Re: UPDATE: Deadline extended again for tablesaw safety comments to the CPSC

I went on the government site to leave my comments but was unsuccessful at the task. After 2 attempts for which I received an error message that the gov site was having problems while both times totally wiping out about 10 minutes of work, I moved on.

They don't really want comments do they?

Re: Ryobi Recalls 300,000 Sheet Sanders

I have sworn off Ryobi tools based on my experiences over the past year.

Their Lithium Ion battery technology failed on my portable drill and THEY FAILED to own-up and support it after admitting in their correspondence that it was defective!

I'll be buying from other manufacturers in the future, which starts now as I need to replace Their drill after 2 years and 3 months.

Re: Having Trouble Finishing? Here's a Great Product

I agree with your endorsement of this product. I have been using it as my Poly finish for 3.5 years now with wonderful results. One does not always need to sand but when I do I use 320 wet/dry paper.

If you want an even smoother high quality finish, try drying under an Infrared heater (mine is on the ceiling about 5 feet from the top of my work bench. It seems to smooth out the product even more and reduce slightly drying times. I never attempt to recoat in less than 3.5-4 hours, though.
