I'm a 70 year old grandma and am going to give this a try. I love working with natural materials...from pine needle baskets to woodworking. Your videos are very well done and have given me inspiration to give this a try! I think it's going to be great fun! I'm thinking about a coffee-style table for my back patio! I can hardly wait to get started! Thanks for the great videos!
Oh my gosh, you're a badass! Do you have any pics of what you made?
Good luck! My experience is two or three electric guitars, even a pitch black neck turned out fantastic. First time!
That's awesome! Nice to hear.
I've watched to many basic woodworking videos that put me to sleep or lead me to walk away because they're monotonous or uninteresting. I wouldn't say that I'm new or that i lack experience in woodworking but I've been searching for techniques, concepts and finishes that are new to me to add more quality and beauty to what I've been doing from the beginning. I started off making signs with Lichtenberg patterns as a background and finished each piece with various stains. After watching your videos, I've been able to incorporate those techniques into the pieces I've been making. Thank you for creating and posting videos that hold my attention and are truly informative. Keep up the good work buddy, your killin it!!!
Your explaining the process very clearly. Don't worry about a little rambling here and there, its nice to see your personality and sense of humor coming through. Keep it up.
It's hard to remember sometimes that things don't have to be perfect and to just "be yourself". I appreciate the feedback!
This comment means so much to me . I wish all the people would think that way .
@@InspireWoodcraft - I know this is an old video, but I’m enjoying what you’re putting out. Every UA-cam’er has their forte, and explaining and “rambling” is part of that art. Keep doing you brother!!! I’m going to attempt this on a pine picnic table tomorrow. My biggest fear is the spots that I filled with filler, I know it’s going to show up like a purple rose in a field of white daisy’s. Thank you again, I hope you know even 3 years later, your video is getting hits.
Love this process! Thanks for clear & precise explanations of the different burn processes. Cant wait to try this. Thank you!
Incredible video, this is exactly what I need for my table top! I will definately be looking forward to other videos!
Thanks so much for making this video! Our company recently did a major renovation and wanted the three letter company logo in the front entrance lobby. They wanted it done is shou sugi ban and I had never heard of that before. The letters were 8'-7" tall and even though the logo is only three letters, it is a large project. With your video, I was able to accomplish the shou sugi ban technique quickly and produce a product identical to what they were planning to purchase. I did each letter in 5" wide, ship lapped boards and stained them red after burning and cleaning. Gave me the opportunity to use my own sawed wood from my sawmill to do a major project.
The rambling is where the most important secret tips come out man!!! Don't sweat it, you're still the best when it comes to this stuff (on the Tube) and I'm finally doing my floating bed frame with all burned wood. Dark grey stain and light whitewash on some spots afterwards. You definitely inspired my friend and I to attempt this project. Keep up the awesome work. Semper Fi!
Thank you for your time! Came across you video and started burning. I ha a board of curly maple..Whoa, brushed, unbrushed I love it...thanks again for taking the time to share.
Wow, insanely bad ass. Amazing work and outcome. Seriously excited to try.
Your videos are so personal. It’s like we’re there with you. Love it! Don’t change it! Great info BTW! Thank you!
What a exceptionally inspiring video! I love how detailed the wood looks too😱 Thanks man for taking time out to demonstrate and explain things so well you rock! 🤘😎
Your channel is so educational, it's almost scientific. You sir, are the Bob Ross of carpentry.
Thank you man!
I really appreciate you putting the information you’ve gathered out there.
Smart, easy to watch, and clear.
Looks great. Totally interesting!
Awesome feedback! Thanks so much!
I'm really interested in what your doing here. I've always loved woodworking and building things with your hands in general. I've never seen anything quite like what you are doing here and its amazing! Keep up the good work!
Thanks so much! Hopefully I can provide a little education and entertainment at the same time.
this dude casually showing us his techniques. thats very rare for an artist. like and subscribe to the guy he deserves it
I'm in the process of redoing my own kitchen ..the stuff is average at any handyman store ..I love the ideas and gives me a wider creative pallet while dealing with the average stuff ..totally awesome, thank-you!
Just love it. And "rambling on" is part of the charm. I've always been experimenting with scrap wood, painted driftwood from old boats etc. It's just a whole world of possibilities out there. I have a pile of scrap woods that I'm going to get stuck into as soon as I'm back in the shop (in Italy) This has been most informative and engaging thank you.
This video is in depth and very informational! I look forward to more videos! Not rambling at all. Keep 'em coming!! 🖤🖤
Love your videos! Very helpful and you explain things in a no nonsense practical way. I can't wait to try this. Keep up the good work.
Very good video. The different techniques are just exactly what I was looking for to burn a birch subwoofer enclosure.
After watching this, I'm most definitely going to finish it this way, and leave it raw.
Best video by far on the subject, thanks for posting this!
I'm really pleased at your video's! they are informative, clean so kid friendly and your bits of humor puts it over the top. I'm very interested in making a few things.
Thank you. Tis a great video. You've "re-kindled" my wood burning spirits. I first learned this in shop class long, long ago. i plan on making some furniture using Shou Sugi Ban
I am a membrane roofer in Sweden and and making tables for my customers. The finish is fantastic 👏
I come across you channel the other day and I really appreciate what you are doing as it will help me fine tune what I am about to explode onto the swedish market 🙏
Just watched your second video. You are saving me a whole lot of trial and error. Thanks for putting the video series together! Off to the third video.
Thank you for your Video's on Shou Sugi Ban . I used the method on barn doors we made for our front bedroom. They look amazing .
I was in the process of finishing a table and was looking up some DIY and came across you video. I wanted to just say thanks! I used some of your process and have been gettiing alot of remarks on it. I will definitely subscribed and will be watching.
That first torch is amazing, and a beast, at removing snow from my driveway and sidewalks. I call it “snow eater” and is a god sent item for keeping my back from being in pain shoveling heavy wet snow.
Thanks so much. A light burn for me is so pretty but you explained so well. Look forward to seeing you brush out and colour. Great teacher.
Brilliant, I tried this yesterday for the fun of it . Literally just popped into my head to try. So happy to find out it is a thing . I find it amazing and you have clarified so much . Thank you.
A year ago I made this technique plus brushing the furniture on the entire kitchen with a drill. I did the burning with a deep burnout, thanks to which the texture of the wood was phenomenal and unique. I recommend experimenting with this technique in different ways, you will always discover something new.
Jodi, when burning wood, maybe you can get 2 pieces of 1/8" steel set up with a back and bottom or a metal box with the front removed with an angle grinder. Set then place the box on four pcs of metal or a stack of washers at each corner underneath the box to keep it off the wood surface. This will give you a surface that won't get burned. Just a thought. I love this idea and the charring really makes the paint pop. Also, my Dad was a welder and I believe they sell a tip for the benzo bottle that is fan-like. That may cover more area, speeding things up for you. Great tutorial!
Dude, great videos. Instant sub here. Keep it up. Good luck with full time tubing.
Hey man - you do a great job! I'm working on a coffee-table and am going to give this a try.
Thanks so much!! Shou Sugi Ban has a minimum 400 sqft order and this video helps soooo much!!
So glad I found your videos before I actually start making proper experiments with the technique, very informative and the way they're filmed shows up enough details to really understand what you're doing. High quality content brother, thank you so much, cheeers from Brazil!
Cheers! Thanks so much. Hopefully more soon!
Thank you for your awesome videos! I successfully did a burn on a test piece of Douglas Fir and it came out great!
Awesome bro, I've been in love with this technique for about a year now, thank you for explaining a few more things I have observed but wasn't 100% on what was actually happening ;)
I know these are old videos, but im just now getting into burning. Your vids are by far the most informative, and practical application of "how to" . So thank you for taking the time to make them, i look forward to learning more from you as i get experienced.
Thank you for your detailed video. THANK you for not talking more than 15 minutes and more then show us a five minutes of act. THANK you for your effort and time for teaching in a direct clear way. Best wishes.
Thanks brother! Another well done video! Looking forward to watching you grow.
Thanks a ton!!
I build custom made tiki bars with the light surface burn. The best way to finish the wood and make sure the grain burn doesn't disappear is bar resin after blowing off any debris or char with compressed air.
Great video. Can't wait for pt 2. I'm converting an old wine box into a smoking box for cocktails. I did one that I painted, but this should be next level.
Thank you for explaining this for beginners. I enjoyed the video and learned a lot!
I just started burning today thanks for sharing didn’t now you could really Charwood and make it come out beautiful thank you. Look forward to your other videos.
I have gotten more good information from your few video's than the last 20 random video's I've watched. Well done, keep up the good work and I'm looking forward to the next.
That's a win in my book! Should be more soon!
Fascinating, can't wait to nee how they turn out. Thanks for the info.
Great video, thank you for the information and sharing it. Look forward to your future videos..
Awesome video, really helpful. Thank you!
Just wanted to say thank you! Our greenhouse burned the frame is salvageable but charred. It was pressure washed, which kind of ruined the charred look in some spots. But over all the wood grain now has a very unique look.Your video gave me excellent ideas on how to preserve the look. Wish me luck!
Thanks so much for all of the tips. I plan on doing the shou sugi ban technique on pine pallet board for my camper walls. It's rough wood, so we shall see.
I've just rewatched your series. It's really good. I laughed so much at your fire safety talk. I've burnt a few guitars - the house and family are still intact...so far.
Interesting video and great editing (special thanks for keeping the music vol down) >>Subscribed! Looking forward to more great stuff.
Your videos are fine, I'm going to try this today. Thank you
Great tips ! you have now a subscriber from Belgium !
Thanks for the video, learned a lot from it. Will be great to see how each of the pieces turn out at the end after brushing and painting them. Keep the good work!
Thank you!
This is fascinating. When I saw the burning on a table top I wanted to share an idea that I use for hot items. My wife gives me her old teflon oven pans that perfect when dealing with hot items such as a soldering iron.
I believe I saw your first video and for sure you can tell the difference from this video. I enjoy these videos and the technique keep them coming.
Stumbled across one of your vids ~20min back and am sooooo glad I did - great job of breaking down the basics.
I'm looking forward to seeing how the burn-technique translates to reclaimed pallets and misc staples/nails :)
SWEET! Thanks for watching these. Pallet wood is super hit and miss. Just because pallets are made of so many different types of wood. Hardwoods don’t work real well in my experience. I found a whole pallet made of curly Maple and though I had hit a gold mine for this technique. I was wrong. Ha!
Fantastic information, I really enjoy your detailed instructions and diligent work. Your channel is one of my favorite once. Thank you and - Go Giants!
Superb videos, very personal and enjoyable! Keep it up!
Very nice wish I would have seen this sooner I made my fence using these techniques could have made some changes to my project
I've yet to do a fence but ti's on my to-do list for sure.
Very cool! And you do a great job on camera👍🏼 Enjoying your videos.
Thanks so much for the positive words! That means a ton!
This video saved a 2x4 bar I built. I built the bar not thinking about the finish, just the shape and look. Stain on a regular 2x4 from the hardware store does not look great. Add a light to medium burn to it and the stain turned out great! Thanks for this video!
OOOOHHHH fire and wood. great things... May need to try this. getting inspired.
This is very fun. I appreciate your videos. I'm using your techniques.
These videos are amazing - thank you so much. I'm learning a lot. Probably going to start experimenting later today. Quick question: Do you ever use a moisture meter to determine if your wood is dry enough? I know you have advised us to look for kiln dried, but sometimes wood isn't marked consistently. I'm wondering if you have a sense of the moisture threshold that will allow the wood to burn properly without cupping or twisting. Thanks again, and keep up the good work. Your stuff looks incredible!
Thank you for these videos. Very informative and interesting to watch. Appreciate all your tips! Well done!!!!!
Stop apologizing for rambling - screw the haters. LOVE your videos and greatly appreciate your sharing of knowledge on the subject of shousugiban in particular. I mill my on lumber from standing trees for various projects here in western Canada and I have had a lot of interest in shousugiban recently. (I also have property in Japan so people assume I know all about it!😆) I'm going to spend a couple of months playing with it and see if I can add it to my repertoire.
I really like your approach and delivery in your videos. Looking forward to watching them all - thanks for making them!
I just used this method with a map gas tank instead of propane. It saves a bunch of time. I went for the full gator skin technique. With that said it still took me 10 hours to burn and brush enough lumber for a 60”x36”x11” bookshelf.
Yeah I haven't had a chance to try MAP gas yet. I assume with the higher heat it could provide a different result or at least just make it go quicker. And yes it takes FOREVER!! I hope the bookshelf turned out awesome though!
What is a MAP Gas Tank,? May I ask,? As I am new to any Wood Burning stuff etc.
This is the best video I have seen on technique so far. I will be watching any others you have on this so far.
Side note: I am a professional photographer (not a videographer) and would be happy to point out some techniques on camera angle, focus points, etc., if you want them.
Thank you so much! And I might just have to take you up on that in the future!!
I used the surface technique on a stand for one of my projects. I wish I had looked more into it. I have to say moving forward I will have to keep your videos in a playlist that way I can make sure if I am to do another wood craft project I know where to turn. Thank you for your video I learn quite allot.
Thanks so much man! There doesn't seem to be a lot of good info on it to begin with. I know when I started doing it I had to actually search to see if anyone else even knew about it! Ha!
well that is the first step. find something you want to learn. then find out who knows more then you.
very cool man, thank you. ive watched all of your videos. i'm soon to Shou Sugi Ban a telecaster...i'll send you a photo when done
I'm going to use all theese info for my new custom telecaster project. Thanks a lot, bro! Greetings from Italy!
I hope that telecaster turned out because that is an amazing idea! Good call!
Absolutely incredible! Thank you for all the advice. Any ideas on how we can manage longer pieces bowing, twisting, or cupping because of the burn?
I’m considering using welding clamps to clamp the workpiece to a straight piece and burn the one side. Then leave it clamped for a few days after the burn. Just wondering if anyone has any other ideas
Stop Drop and Roll works great as long as you don't have a floor covered in sawdust.
Always wear non-flammable clothing when you're doing this.
Great video!
Wow. I gotta try this on my ceramic egg cook station that I just built!!!! Thanks.
Great video bud!! Really interesting especially useful for potential furniture making projects, Thanks for sharing .
Hella ADHD and I did not get distracted one time watching this, and some of your other vids. Well done!!!
I really enjoyed your video and suscribed! Looking forward to the next one! Great work!
Thank you!
sugar burn on the knot. the sugars are coming out. amazing.
great job! Burning a guitar again and this helps! thx!
I agree with the ADD maker comment below mine I think you’re explaining it very thoroughly, Love your work love to see more videos 👍👍
Thanks so much!
Your videos are really easy to learn from, thank you for that.
Thanks so much for the kind words! Means a lot!
*Coffee, haaa* LOL.
Me too tho.
Hey, thanks for your video. And for you taking the time to teach this technique to others and for explaining everything in such depth. You do beautiful work and it should be recognized. Really cool. I do have to mention your safety disclaimer as well. So sweet and sincere. Quite refreshing to see. I enjoyed your video very much.
Thanks again
Thanks for the video. I appreciate the time and effort you took to make it. Very cool effect! Quick question: I'm starting to learn how to do wood grain ink printing using a stump or log. As you probably know, an important part of this process is burning the end of the log, then scraping away what was charred, which should burn away "spring" (?) growth, leaving a slight raised area. So my question... is there a right and wrong way to do this? Can the end grain be burned too much? Or should I simply burn it until it is entirely charred? (okay, maybe more than one question). Thank you for any insight and advice you offer.
This is awesome! Thanks for the video.
I am going to try to do this over this weekend. Wish me luck.
Awesome video man. Going to make my first shot at this for a bbq table and hope it turns our good. Thanks for the pointers dude
Best safety notice ever :-) Thanks for this video man, best one!
The second to the last side you charred, the exposed it in 3D. That. May sound crazy, but I could actually see it depth. It was amazing looking.
Thanks for your inspiration, i will try this 👍
Well done especially how you link all the products you use.
Great videos man, you have taught me a lot! I'm in the process of building a Tongue & Groove Cypress Dining Room table. The boards are attached together with Titebond wood glue so I wanted to know does this burning/charring technique affect the glue that is holding the boards together?
Great video brother thank you!! Learned a lot about wood burning 🔥
I use a weeder flame, works brilliantly
I love this technique, it brings out beautiful characteristics of the wood. I have a wine rack that I have not stained yet. I’m going to try this out instead. Any fixes if any areas become blotchy?
Me and my two boys (old enough to caused trouble) are going to tackle our picnic table, wish us luck, we have torches, propane, glasses for safety, the fire department on Speed dial!!! Wish us luck, and I have faith this will ALL turn out!!!!
Brilliant simply brilliant....Your a funny guy too....Thanks I will try this and hopefully i will not set anybody on fire
Very helpful and a well made video... Thanks.
Thank you SO MUCH for sharing your knowledge!!! I love burning wood!! Pyrography is also a passion! You share some fantastic tips on how to to do this sweet hobby!! Burn Baby Burn!!!😁
Hi! Great videos, strong delivery! Did you ever do the follow on video you mention about comparing outcome of surface burn Vs brushed Vs full on char!? Thanks!!
