Tom22 your cleanup of this piece turned out very well. Did you ever etch it?
As per oils discussed I have been using heavy coats of almond oil to pre-treat very dry wood because of its low viscosity. Depending on condition I may repeat the almond oil a few times.

I let that dry for a few days to a couple weeks, then repeat the linseed oil.
