    If the grain is beautiful, wax, wax, wax using an old nylon stocking to buff after every layer.

    I definitely would not paint it. I would take a piece of fine grain sand paper and just lightly go over the edges and surface to smooth it all out. Then, I would go over that with a few coats of tongue oil. And that will do it! I also checked with a good friend on this, who built their own cabin, desks and musical instruments, etc.
