Oil is bare wood.. so once a month or more if needed you'll need to oil the outside to keep moisture from getting into the wood and warping it.

Poly is a coating on the wood that protects it from moisture.. will be glossy and kinda won't feel like wood in the hand. May wear off in spots after years. Can be sanded off if wanted. Though you can clean it with a dang cloth. I use a wood soap. Prob can on either one.. I have no probs


Either one you will need to use mineral oil and a brush to apply on the inside once a month or once every 2 months. Brush everything inside and wait a few mins and then wipe it out.. use a q-tip to get all thr hard to reach areas.

Not needed as often as your not touching the insides like the outside of the wood. I just get it done at the same time when I do the mods once a month.. usually in the beginning of the month.

Number 2 for me.

 

[Papa_Lazarou]

Walnut & maple of this selection, but do pick up the zebra/ebony as well

Because... woodvils.

 

[LarryPer]

flip a coin

You can't go wrong with any of the 3. Put all 3 on separate papers and place in a hat.............(and no peeking).

Truth is that you will be scooping up the others soon enough.....

I have to go with the classic Walnut & Maple combo. I like the birdseye pattern on the combo's door more too.
