Hi all, I've now applied around 6 or 7 coats of oil to my neck and head, and have decided I'd just like to squiggle my signature on the headstock. What options do I have? Could I just use a marker pen/sharpie and write straight on? Or is it worth ordering a transfer/decal? I planned to add the signature now, then coat the final layers of oil to finish. Any suggestions would be most helpful |

Use a paint pen found at you local art supplier. Sharpie will dissolve into a runny mess under a coat of finish. |

There's this option: Attachment: IMGP3146.JPG Attachment: IMGP3240.JPG Incidentally, that's also an oil varnish finish. |

that looks really nice, but I think with my skill I'd probably carve a line down the entire neck and into my hand! |
