<p>[QUOTE=&quot;James Conrad, post: 293543, member: 5066&quot;]Yeah, &amp; that&#039;s only half the story! Took the board along with the piece to restorer, about a month later he calls and says, IT AIN&#039;T GONNA HAPPEN!</p><p>What&#039;s the problem i ask. The problem is, that board while air drying had turned a deep nut brown in color and, no matter what he did to color it to try and approximate the reddish color on walnut case, it&#039;s still a DEEP BROWN! and sticks out like a sore thumb.</p><p>What should we do i asked? How about waiting 2 hundred years till the board turns red he thundered!!! and he was pretty serious! lol. I suggested he just set it aside for now, move on to other projects &amp; come back to it later.</p><p>A few weeks later he calls back, It&#039;s ready! It is? what happened? Since he had tried everything else &amp; failed, he decided to bleach the board white and, it WORKED!</p><p>It&#039;s not a perfect match but it&#039;s very close, i am happy with it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
