    quality (and high priced) tung oil based finishes from Sutherland
    Welles, of which some would argue are some of the best finishes out
    there of their kind.

    http://woodworker.com/cgi-bin/home.exe Woodworker's Supply also sells Behlen pure tung oil, and J.B. Moser tung oil finishes (more simialr to varnish). And they sell the Behlen's in a pint can as well as quarts,
    so you cna buy small and see if you like it. I little goes a long way,
    and the Behlen can wll actually suggest you can thin the oil with up to 4-parts mineral spirits if you want to.

    If the product is labeled as "pure" or "100% pure" tung oil, and has a obvious nutty odor, then that is what you are getting, pure tung oil.
    If it smells at all of a solvent/chemical, and is labeled something
    along the lines of "tung oil finish", it MIGHT contain a smidgen of tung oil (maybe!), and is more likely to be nothing more than thinned down varnish that doesn't contain any tung oil at all.

    Good luck.

    The application of psychology is a scientific endeavor. You use empirically valid measures to make any determination.

    Dr. Mangiameli was only interested in the money. Without my consent, he used his state issued license to sell my right to protect my children. He just didn't give a shit about what it means for my kids.

    Please sign my petitions to bar Dr. Lyn Mangiameli from being contracted by the Judicial Council of California to conduct psychological evaluations. He previously made a false determination of competency without ever meeting or speaking with me. Dr.
    Mangiameli didn't even use an assessment.

    He knew that my children were being sexually abused, but all he cared about was pocketing my former attorney's money.

    Dr. Mangiameli's own words:

    "Whether public safety worker or common citizen, the greatest destructive cognition is guilt....Guilt for what your children are experiencing, and perhaps are unable to understand."

    https://ncps.org/newsletter/article/472/unspoken-physical-and-emotional-aftermath-wild-fires-unique-perspective

    Having a conscience is destructive for him because it would mean that he couldn't pocket the money.
