I am turning a pepper mill from highly figured claro walnut. The pores seem huge. Over the last two days, I have read lots of threads here on finishing walnut, especially with regard to filling the pores. What a great wealth of knowledge on this site. It seems two techniques are favored: grain filler/paste and applying BLO and wet sanding so the slurry fills the pores. I am planning to finish with as light a shellac as I can find around here and then spray lacquer. What would work best when there are finer details like beads, fillets, and other "nooks and crannies" where scraping out filler would be hard or sanding in small spaces could change details? Any advice or other suggestions is greatly appreciated to get the grain to really "pop".
