From NewScientist, two possible habbits that may help protect against Parkinson’s.
A little suggestion I found online about how best to apply linseed oil… no wonder tristan’s projects take so long.
“The old style oil finish was simply boiled linseed oil rubbed onto the furniture. No, you don’t have to boil it, it comes that way. If this is the look you want, you can follow this formula for application, which is not a joke, by the way. Apply once a day for a week, once a week for a month, once a month for a year, and once a year for the rest of your life! Following this method (which can’t be rushed) it takes about 6 months to get a piece looking good. The original oil finish was used as much for a wood preservative as it was for enhancing the looks of the piece. Proper application usually involved all the wooden parts of the furniture, not just those parts that showed.”
