Rob, how foolish of me to forget that particular thread about Australian
tool folks named Peter, but there you go again----mixing threads.  It sets a
dangerous precedent. 

We now have natural finishes, heat guns, Australian men named Peter or Jeff
with exception of Mr. Manners, with old tool proclivities as well as the
dangerous nature of Kerosene and odd clothing with mismatched patterns all
in one message. How will this ever be archived properly?

Just to bring this back to some semblance of order, I will tell you that I
love Gorilla Glue when it is appropriate. But, since I see that this message
began a long time ago with the problem of Pine Blotch I see no way to
combine all of these threads even with the appropriate CA glue and a coat of
natural paint or rusty vinegar.

Perhaps instead of rusty vinegar we could use balsamic vinegar.  Due to its
high natural sugar content, it should brown nicely with a heat gun I think.
There it goes again--the voices in my head are telling me to begin supper.
