Pretty Cool, Steve!!
Pine always looks better Dark, like a Walnut finish.
Great Idea!

I’m with Bear, a black walnut stain then several layers of tru oil would be really nice.....

I was thinking about a dark stain such as that. And, I think I have a can in the garage already.

Make sure you sand it good----Dark stain on Pine shows every imperfection.
One little speck of sandpaper grit, between the paper & the wood will show up after staining.

Oh yeah. I learned that the hard way long ago! I'll be sanding down to 320 grit.

I didn't have walnut stain on hand. But I had Windsor oak. So, I used that. Looks pretty good.
