Only thing to add is that with the last grit, finish with full length sanding strokes in one direction. This will help with the little "swirls" in the finish that come from sanding back and forth. Using, the edge of the sanding block can help too.

Good point Justin. Thanks.

Glue some stiff felt to your sanding stick. Use it to back the sand paper on your last grit. Gives a very smooth satin finish. I use 800 grit. Brownell sells the felt pads.

Thanks Bob for the tip on using the stiff felt. I can see how that would work.
