The first step to a good finish is to make sure the surface the finish will be applied to is

defects that may have gone unnoticed. What appears to be a minor defect on raw wood will

stand out like a sore thumb when a stain or finish is applied.


Surface preparation should begin before the project is assembled. A fair amount of common

sense should be used during construction. For example: any surface that can't be easily

reached after assembly should be sanded before assembly. In general attention to detail such

as tight joint lines and excess glue squeeze out should be addressed during construction.

Excess stain will accumulate between poorly fitted joints and will appear as unsightly dark

lines when the finish has been applied. The glue squeeze out should be left to dry and then

removed by using a scraper. During construction I am constantly asking myself, "How will

this affect the surface when I apply a stain or finish"? Ask yourself this while you work
