Grumpily cynical political geek, would-be carpenter, bad guitarist. Politically left of centre by some distance. Like rugby, judo, rock, atrocious puns and my cat.
I've had some good results from Osmo Polyx hard waxes. They take a long while to fully dry, but they're designed for floor use so wear is not much of an issue. Example: a desk I made last year
Another day, more maths and measurements. Table stretchers are nice and square with a fit that needs a mallet to get in and out. Lovely. Now to add the corner stretcher with turntable.
Oh, for sure, they'll come in handy. I have loads, including recently some really chunky ones from Lidl that I'm really pleased with, they're absolutely rock solid
Just image searched and this came up, it doesn't surprise me because they LOVE making tools here. They also do it well, but I can't get on with German style hand planes so I stick to Stanley type.
