Hi I make ukuleles but due to personal/health reasons, I can't use chemicals.
would you have an idea on how to protect the wood ? Any kind of oil ?

I did hear a long time ago that you can use Vaseline as a finish..Never tried it tho.
You try it first Ken. Could work, but might make the uke a little... slippery?.... My idea: Take mineral oil and just rub it on the wood. Zero VOC. Let soak in for a day or two and then buff. It will soak in just like it does on fingerboards. You could also dye the oil with a tiny bit of ink or paint or... Well, you go first.
I have some pure tung oil.
After having sanded, should I apply the oil as it is ?
