i hate working with wood

I’m curious, did you experiment with how your pitch control was before you started staining?

EDIT, i own page 3

Uh.... no. The "destructions" say to do the wood finish first, so I didn't check it first, just put on my innocent little Danish Oil...

It's a couple of days later now, the theremin isn't tacky feeling and doesn't smell so strongly of Danish OIl, and I seem to have it tuned into playable condition.

I have a hard time keep my hands off of, er, away from, it!
