Hi Amanda thanks for the tip...going to give it a try ...I don't like to remove good wood just because of a few flaws...thanks again... such a waste
Hi Donna, so many ideas for you to try, hope this helps you out, have you though of just painting them? Or you can apply a peel and stick to them, that way the wood still stays the same.
