Hey guys.
I'm fairly new to woodworking. I refinished the handle on an old early 1900s plane that I came into. After completing it, I notice some lines in the rosewood that are much lighter. I'm wondering what I did wrong. I sanded it down prior to finishing it. Wondering now if I didn't get all the old finish off?
To my eye there are distinct light lines around the base of it, and overall I'm not loving the finish (boiled linseed oil).
