Re: Down By the Old Mill Stream W.I.P.
When you say 0000 steel wool, is that still like the steel wool you can buy in a kitchen store or is it special stuff for this kind of work? Which is way cool by the way!!!!

Re: Down By the Old Mill Stream W.I.P.
0000 Steel wool is mainly used for fine finishing wood, used between coats of lacquer, or at least that's what I have always used it for.
There are several Grades of steel wool also from 0 - 0000
Thanks everyone glad ya like it. I put the brakes on today cause I am waiting for a more detailed version of the mechanics.
