So I did indeed follow it up and tbf the seller messaged me straight away and explained that it had been shipped without fine sanding and wax/varnish finish. He admitted that my order got mixed in with the finished items and offered to remake me another with the same or different wood. I’ve opted for olive wood this time as the walnut is a bit dark. I’ve got 240 grit sandpaper so I’m going to give the finish a go myself. I don’t know what varnish or wax to use if anyone had any suggestions?
Overall I still have a functioning funnel with another on the way. As long as I am happy with the new one, I don’t mind playing around with the other
