I made a tofu press and have some Howard butcher block conditioner on hand. Is that enough for a finish or do I need something more?

I would think butcher block oil (mineral oil) would do

Dont buy "butcher block oil", though, because it's weirdly upcharged for just plain mineral oil. The pharmacy sells food grade mineral oil for way cheaper as a laxative, but it's literally the same.

That's a pro tip I never expected. I'll pick some up when I get toothpaste
