    My first published article ...

    My first published article is in the newest American Woodworker (Dec/Jan 2012) magazine... pg 47-49. Got my copy in the mail today! They only changed about 5% of my words...

    Finishing is an 'Art & a Science'. Actually, it is a process. You must understand the properties and tendencies of the finish you are using. You must know the proper steps and techniques, then you must execute them properly.

    Well done Scott!! You've helped more people than you'll ever know, and I count myself as one of them. I personally, thank you for all you've contributed to this forum and the hobby/business of woodworking.

    Thanks, Ken

    In the actual article (or the sources part of the issue), do you give a shopping list for what brushes meet your criteria? I trust your judgement and a shopping list is easier than doing my own research <g>.

    Nice job, Obi-Wan.

    Keep 'em coming, Sir.
    When I started woodworking, I didn't know squat. I have progressed in 30 years - now I do know squat.

    That's surprising; I woulda thought you'd have been published often before. Congrats. Thanks for all the lessons here.

    Great article! And many thanks for taking the time to share your expertise, here - I often search a finishing question and find that you've previously written exactly the answer I was looking for, in response to someone else's questions!
