Well Friends and gentleman, I started working on a new set of cross sticks for BPCR competition. These are going to be 12" taller than my old set, so I can shootfrom the trac chair instead of getting out of it to get down on my stool. Stool to trac chairs seat difference is 10" so the 12" increase should give me 2" of extra. I picked up some 1" X 2" hard maple at menards a few weeks ago for this project and some hard wood dowels to pin them together. I'm slowly working on them and haven't decided on finish yet. lispeed oil, Tru oil, poly urethane, or a varnish of some type, am also considering the bar top epoxy finish since its a nice clear hard finish. But it adds almost .060 to thickness do to the coatings thickness. I'm leaning towards the boiled linseed oil to seal and finish. But may go with the tru oil for ease of finish.
