I seem to be on a roll this week for asking very basic questions. I've decided to sand the top of my bench back slightly, which is made from an old oak desk - it has a dark stain finish, and I want to lighten my work surface a bit. I don't know how best to finish the surface though, not linseed oil as I do my soldering on my workbench and I don't want to set it on fire - varnish, hmm don't know if varnish is suitable for a workbench - perhaps wax it? How is everyone elses workbench surface finished? Perhaps it doesn't matter - I do sometimes get bogged down thinking there is one right answer to everything and I just don't know what it is!
