Excellent advice Tom. One step further, Luthiers take scraps of the various woods they use and make sawdust and store it in envelopes. Knowing that the color always darkens when adding the various liquids, they pick a lighter colored sawdust that will match the work piece. A rasp or course file gets you there in a hurry. Also a fine line magic marker (.05 mm or less) in the right color can make convincing grain pattern across a small defect. Ed Minch |
