   Magazines seem to work pretty well, as do coasters and books. Spread them out on the table and you'll never notice the sapwood.

   Seriously, aniline dye.

   I have several aniline dye colors and was looking for some help as to which one has worked best for other people.

   I also remember reading aomething about using wild colors like yellow, orange, etc under the finish or stain to blend the sap wood better. Your thoughts...
