Good topic.  Finishing is one of my weaker skills in woodworking.  Right now, I'm working on my first dulcimer and I'm using tung oil as the finish.  So far, I've got three coats on and plan to do some light sanding with 320 or 400 grit and apply one or two more coats depending on how the fourth coat looks.  Then, I'll go over it with a couple coats of Trewax paste wax.  I'm going for a satin finish.  Right now it looks pretty nice and going in the direction I want.

I really like the idea of the "possum box" doubling as a case for your dulcimer and accessories.  May give that a try myself.
