How can I best apply Danish oil on walnut to achieve a beautiful and durable finish?

To apply Danish oil on walnut for a beautiful and durable finish, follow these steps:

1. Sand the walnut surface to remove any imperfections and create a smooth finish.
2. Apply a liberal amount of Danish oil using a clean cloth or brush, working in the direction of the wood grain.
3. Allow the oil to penetrate the wood for about 15-20 minutes, then wipe off any excess oil with a clean cloth.
4. Let the first coat dry completely, then lightly sand the surface with fine-grit sandpaper before applying additional coats.
5. Repeat the process of applying, allowing to penetrate, wiping off excess, and drying for 2-3 coats for a deep, rich finish.
6. Allow the final coat to dry for at least 24 hours before using the walnut piece.
