Nothing much to say, except to thank the members who've been posting here about their finishing techniques!

I've been struggling to learn a lot of the basics, getting finishes that just weren't working right, and today I finally managed to get to the point where, firstly, the finished pieces were living up to what I had hoped for, and secondly, I'm not having to hope and pray for luck to make it work out.

So, thanks for making a rank novice's afternoon much, much better.
