Here is the 1st coat of oil. It's still wet. Cool hand I took your advise and had to play some more and got some Fiebing's leather dye to even the color out between all the pieces. That stuff is awesome! Just wipe lightly on with a paper towel to tone up what you want. If I ever do another birch stock that will be the method from the get go. Camera's jacking with the true color again.

True color is just about half way between these two shots. Should deepen and darken just a bit as the oil dries.
