Popular Post Insane Dust Maker Posted April 18, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted April 18, 2022 Made a frame from pine, burnt it with a blow torch and then brushed it with a wire brush until I achieved the desired effect. Then applied sanding sealer and a clear coat of Matt varnish. ChelCass, Dan, bobscroll and 17 others 20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
preprius Posted April 18, 2022 Report Share Posted April 18, 2022 Thanks for the picyure. I thought about maybe the wood burning might not look good.. But with you picture it turned out better than I thought. scrollingforsanity and OCtoolguy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spirithorse Posted April 18, 2022 Report Share Posted April 18, 2022 Hi, @Don Bedggood As preprius said, I also wondered about the amount of wood burning and the results. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder so, as long as you are pleased, that is what matters, I am not particularly fond of the dark nature of the frame. Just my opinion which has lost a lot of value due to the cost of living inflation. God Bless!

Gene Howe Posted January 7, 2023 Report Share Posted January 7, 2023 So sugi ban will yield some interesting , sometimes unexpectedly dramatic results. I like to use it on heavily grained lumber like fir. Wire bush it, then dye it, usually blue, red or, green. scrollingforsanity and OCtoolguy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
