I have read an article recently that described a finish schedule to duplicate a fumed finish on Oak. Does anyone know where that article appeared? I have a need to find it and I can’t remember where I saw it.

Thank you. This is it. I was going nuts.

Glad to help out. Let me know how it works. I would like to try my hand at some arts and crafts furniture. Tom"Notice that at no time do my fingers leave my hand"
Tom,
It's actually for a friend of mine. However, Jeff Jewitt posted the article on his website and it has a couple of examples of the finish in terms of color strength. You can see them at http://www.homesteadfinishing.com/htdocs/mission_oak.htm.
I have some finishes you might want to take a look at on his forum at http://www.homesteadfinishing.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=3385. This is an antique maple but there are several others I have posted.
I am attaching something I call Cabernet.
