	The only oils I use for my fifes is mineral oil that you can get
at any dept. or drug store. I use it on both my modern rosewood (Russ Kerby)
and my 200 year old boxwood (Astor London) fifes.

Levin Historical Instruments recommends the use of raw (not boiled!!!)
linseed oil for their recorders and other wooden instruments.
