I have a project that I need to butt two pieces of stock together but want to stain the end product. Is there anything I can do to eliminate the visibility of the seam?
Thanks,
Scott

You might be able to "fake it" by trying to use a combination of glaze and stain. If you are really good with a glaze and a dry brush you might be able to create some fake grain. This works OK on darker finishes, but if you're talking about a light stain, I'm not sure you can do much more than try to match the grain in alignment.

Don't know if it'll work in your case, but I have taken a router bit, possibly a v shaped bit(chamfer bit) and run along a seam to make it look like part of the design.
