Was that from that special batch of stocks you were offering a bit ago. I knew they would look awesome.

I think this was just stained with iron nitrate.  A little amber transtint dye was probably added to the finish oil as well.  I believe it was largely finished with Permalyn, but the last few coats were Tried and True Varnish Oil. 

This was from some wood we had a year or so ago. 

Thanks guys!
