I'm working with a solid wood worktop which was sold to me as dark oak but I think it might be stained beech. Is there an easy well to tell the woods apart from the grain or anything?
I think this will change what oil I should use to protect it - I was going to use Danish oil - will that work?
I would also like to round off some edges, but will need to stain them back to match the rest of the wood. I've been told to put a bit of dye in each coat of oil until it matches, which sounds good.
Thanks,
Chris
