Marvin,

The Graham walnut/alkyd medium sounds like exactly what I've been looking for.

My only reservation is that an Old Holland tech letter put walnut oil in the same category as poppyseed, in that it's a lighter oil - less subject to yellowing than linseed but more prone to cracking. Intuitively, though, I'd expect this to be offset by the added toughness of the alkyd.

Any problem so far with cracking?

Thanks for all of your generous posts!
Tom
