I have a workpiece that I want to give an oil finish, but a certain area needs to stay oil-free, because I need to attach a part later on using hide glue. What masking method is safe for oil?

    Couldn’t you use painter’s tape? Unless your glue joint is thin, it won’t matter if some of the oil seeps past the tape. Pre-finishing is way easier than finishing after final assembly.
