Can you download the pic to your computer? Once it is on the hard drive, it's a snap.

I did everything and it finally worked. I put 4 coats of Tru-Oil on it to get an idea of the color. It's just been run through a thickness sander. Not sanded or anything. I do like the color. A golden hue. It does have some nice figuring in it but it's not that spot I Oiled.

I have made several guitars out of African Mahogany. My first one was. Here is a sound clip off it on my web page:
