Really nice transformation on that, there was some pretty nice wood under all the gunk.

I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman "Were is the Self Help Section?" She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.

Thanks guys, I've always been kind of handy with a belt sander(that is all I used, that and a couple of sanding sponges.) about an hr and a half, is all it took. I was very pleased with the way the finger grooves turned out.

rwsem, that's the bbl I got from you, by the way.
