I have a general question for all our bluenose fan. I'm debating about the color schema for the outside hull. I love wood color and would rather finish with natural; I'm considering the following:
Accurate reproduction
a) reproduce the final color schema of the bluenose, i.e. Upper black and lower oxide red. Would be staining using keda dyes.
Wood Finish - artistic (edging here)
b) no dye, Upper part in pear wood as provided with the kit (finish with lindseed oil/wax) - a relatively dark color. MY QUESTION: what should I use for the lower portion? pearwood (kit supplied) OR the much lighter boxwood?
