[quote=Anonymous]My DH and I have butcher-block which we purchase from Lumber Liquidators very inexpensively, (less than a $1000). We like the look and figure when we go to sell the house we can have whatever the must have counter of the day is installed. That way we get the look we want and we don't have to worry about resale. We treated ours with food grade mineral oil and bees wax, for the first 2 month it was in we had to oil and wax in every couple of weeks. Since then, its been about once a year. I like the look of the worn wood, so I cut directly on the surface and I don't mind the small stains. I've had a few bigger stains, but they have come out easily when I rubbed mineral oil into them. Also, doing this no stain surface is nice, if you need to you can sand out an imperfection and then just re-oil that area.,[/quote]
