So a nail or engraving tool is nothing to be embarrassed about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandtrap Posted November 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2016 Yes a dull 6" nail would work no problem , I might try it on a scrap piece of wood to test , my mate now wants his done but I'll encourage him to do it himself as it's not difficult.. removing the lacquer and oiling has made a nice difference too just looks and feels better than std Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
