[QUOTE="Blackhorse, post: 434005, member: 1365"] Personal interpretation of finishes: Smooth: the natural surface of the wood in all its glory...related to superior grain...shows and enhances grain...from naked to multiple stains. Sandblasted: a "machine process" wherein an artfully controlled stream of abrasiveness eats away at softer portions of the surface leaving harder portions higher, thusly exposing the natural grain hidden within the block. Leaves a very organic surface. Rusticated: a showcase for torturing wood into a beautiful surface design through cutting, gouging, hacking, carving, and the like...gorgousness via physical abuse. Leaves a totally artificial surface. I love 'em all. [/QUOTE]
