Snow,

For those here who have soaked a handle, but the metal is still a bit proud, do you file away at the metal? Wrap it with some wrap?
What's the brand there?
Does it much matter?
How much is needed for the Mason Jar Approach?

Yeah the mineral spirits work great for helping the oil to soak in deep, and they evaporate quickly afterwards. If I do use diluted stuff (on really dense or really dry wood) I still always finish with the pure stuff to be sure there's a good seal. 50/50 mix, then 75/25 mix, then 100% is a good starting point.
3 kucks are now Pickling in Tung oil... Now I`ll try to forget about them for a while
