More Side Work..

I had an hour or so to spare today, so I decided to take the grab rails and tiller handle that Pops had sanded down and do some finish up work with them.  Some .300 grit sandpaper and the West Marine Premium Gold teak oil would do the trick.  I have to say, all this wood looked about five million times better once a little oil was applied.


Even though there are some light cracks along the edges, I think some more sanding and another coat should do just fine.  I guess we will wait and see once the Spar Varnish is applied as to what the end result will yield.  For now, the first coat of oil will set in overnight as the rails and tiller dry in the storage room.  I will check up on them tomorrow morning.
