        You missed your big chance, none of my cherry had any sap wood ;-)  Sorry just had to rub it in..

   frenchy,

   Next time you've got a big load of free wood, let me know.  I'll come up with a dump truck, and take it all off your hands.  LOL

   You'll have to take me fishing, though.

   Jeff

   To expand on Mike's suggestion with an addition resource, check out Jeff Jewitt's site, Homestead Finishing.  I've linked you to his Dye FAQ's but he has a good selection of powder and liquid dies, and an excellent forum in which to ask questions.  Your local library might have a good finishing book that discusses the dye techniqe.

   Let us know how it goes!
