Since I don't own a lathe, I've been working with some basswood because it's light and very easy to mold using a sander. My goal is to make a few squid like poppers.
A challenge I'm encountering now is that this wood seems to really soak up the wood sealer (val oil) which really increases it's weight. Has anyone else noticed this?
