    DNA Source

    Well, here I am again. I'm going to have to get to turning so I won't feel out of place if I post something here. Which I will start in a few months....retirement coming up.

    Anyway..... I was in my local ACE Hardware today to pick up some Danish oil. I turned around and right behind me was DNA. I had bought a gallon in HD for use with shellac for about $12 if I recall correctly. The price per gallon at my ACE was $8.97. And below it was a five gallon can for $31.76, which, when I got home and did the math, is $6.35 a gallon. So by the five gallon can it's close to half the price per gallon at the Borg. I know that ACE is pretty widespread and that DNA is widely used in turning so I thought I would post this and maybe save someone a buck or two - I haven't a clue if the DNA prices are uniform across the stores.
    And now for something completely different....

    Richard I found the same thing. I got mine for I think $32.95. Still pretty cheap.

    Never put off until tomorrow what you can do the day after tomorrow.

    Richard,

    Sometimes you might want to check paint stores too. They carry it and depending on the local situation, they might be cheaper.
