Well I finally received my red polyurethane.  I had ordered 1 foot of red originally and they sent me black. They had called me and said it had a few air holes in it.  I didn't ask how much or how big. They sent me 4 foot worth! The tiny holes I can work around.  Now to cut a piece off and put it in the freezer until tomorrow.

To be honest I'm not too sure about the red, but you did make go and order some tru-oil :)

With Tru-Oil just need patience for drying times. Put it on in thin coats.  Whichever wood you choose it may need a sealer 1st to fill in the bigger pores 

I didn't figure most would like the red. Since traditionally they're black. I  have a red truck, red motorcycle...yep I like reds!

Why have one just like everybody else when you’re making it for yourself? The red stands out and that handle is a thing of beauty. Nice job! What weight did you end up at?

That looks gorgeous! The handle is exquisite, really one-of-a-kind. I think you have a lot of talent and skill to be able to fabricate your own maul like that.
