Re: Sticky Weapons

Well, I let my weapons dry for one more week. After this time they are far less gummy then when I made my original post. They are still slightly more sticky then I would prefer, but instead of stripping them I am going to train with them and see if my hands where down the surface a bit. I expected that the oils would dry within 24 hours, but perhaps the humidity where I live slowed this process.
As a side note regarding the mention of boiled versus raw linseed oil, I am not sure what the difference is except that boiled linseed oil supposeduly dries more quickly then the raw form. I read somewhere that this is due to an added chemical, but I am uncertain if that is true or which chemical that may be.
Thank you for all of the advice.
