Stain: amzn.to/2DYHLFX
Here is an example of using this technique :
• Make New Wood Look Old... - Навчання та стиль
Going to try this to make a "reclaimed wood" case ceiling in a hallway! Builder wanted $1800 for this upgrade. Thanks for the great tips!
the best video i've seen on wood distress. straightforward, no music!! and a great effect. thank you. subscribed
Awesome video. I use 550 cord with nuts and bolts and swing it. The type of wood determines how hard I'm striking the wood. Thank you for making this video. I learned some new techniques.
Excellent video! Thank you for taking the time to make it, I’ll be doing the black paint technique for the entryway beam!
Thank you! I hope it turns out great!
thank you for making this video!!! Its the best I've seen for distressed wood.
+Unstoppable Morgan thank you so much for the kind words!
Great job!
Thank you for sharing👍
Made a sign today with this style(orange). Used sheet metal letters, turned out amazing.
I did the one with the black paint and it turned out so awesome I also used gray latex paint on a rubber roller and went across it hear and there also on some of the other boards I went across the whole board and it just colored the tips of the grains and the distress lines it came out so amazing. I thought of another tool to distress the wood. just a regular brick with very rough lines like some houses have by running it across the wood it worked perfectly. On some of the boards I dipped the brick in some of the gray paint that I poured on a paper plate (small amount) like if I where going to use to stamp it but instead of stamping it on the board i ran it down the board either pushing it down hard and light alternating. Very unique look but on all the boards I still used the black paint technique. Thank you so much for making this viedo. keep up the beautiful work.
Thanks for this. I used these same tricks to distress the fresh cut edge on my mantle build on my channel.
Thank you so much for this! God bless the interwebs. My search brought me right to your video - and it's EXACTLY what I needed for my wife's birthday present I'm working on! Thank you!!
I’m glad my video has helped you! That is my ultimate goal!
Dude!! Thanks. Well made video. To the point and we’ll explained. Keep up the nice work!
Awesome just what I needed! Thanks for the video!
Cool video, I'm definitely need to try this.
Nice work. Like the black paint technique.
Thanks for the great video. Would LOVE to see your kitchen when the cabinets are done. Going to be beautiful! BTW....your pace and voice modulation make your videos very easy to listen to.
Nice job. I will try it this weekend.
+Whiskey Runner great! I hope it turns out good for you!
great job i loved the look with the brush on paint really cool you shared this i feel like i might have a project i can try your ideas on thank you so much for sharing
looks great! many thanks. am inspired
Very useful video, thank you.
Awesome! Thanks for the lesson.
one way I learned from an old school finisher, if you don't want such a dramatic change but still want the distressing to show, stain the piece, let it dry, then spray on sanding sealer. let that dry, sand lightly and then stain with ebony stain or something very very dark. when you wipe off the stain, it will stay in the holes and crevices you have created, accenting these while leaving the rest of the area with the regular stain. let dry and then top coat. I have used this many times to great effect, including on a huge mirror frame that was 10" wide. I beat on that thing for a week until I was satisfied it was distressed enough.
Very cool, I prefer the stain! Great video 👍🏻
The walnut on its own looked great
Brilliant tips, thank you.
Nice easy technique! Thanks!
+Alan Rifkin thank you!
I bought a pinch roller for applying laminate to a substrate off Craigslist for $40 , it's 50" wide and had no motor, the rollers were beat to hell but I had a purpose in mind. I drove horseshoe nails, finish nails, screws and wire coils into the rubber on the rollers and attached a crank to the drive spindle. The lower roller is adjustable for thickness so I can run anything from half to four and a half inches through it and it only repeats the pattern every 22", almost undetectable. By varying the pinch pressure I'm able to go from a mild distress to heavy distress at the turn of a spring loaded knob. This cobbled together piece of crap has saved me hundreds of hours of labor making my line of rustic old west furniture. Along with the good ol' vinegar and steel wool trick I can use lumber fresh off the greenchain and make it appear 100 years old in less than a week.
I like the black paint ideal , good tutorial thanks.
I love this method! It is quick and easy as opposed to some others I have heard of. Thank you . Just subscribed!
Thank you so much. I’ll be making a video soon on how to make that distressing tool I used to pound against the board. Stay tuned
I like the second stain method. I have heard of guys using a chain to add a distress look, Very cool.
We actually used the chain method on my grandmothers brand new floors then sanded them down very lightly - they turned out beautiful. We dragged the chain around with some weight on top then took it and just randomly slapped and beat around.
Great video. Thank you!
Great idea thanks from Texas
I learned something new today great job!!!
Great!
I like the look on the last board
+Woodified Thank you for your comment. I just put up one of the doors in my kitchen and it looks great. I did a more heavier distressing to that board.
B&O Craftsman did you use the same combination stain/method as used in the second example in the video? Walnut stain with black paint and water mix?
Great video.
Amazing! Thank you so much!
I went backwards for shutters for sun porch light Grey with rag really scrubbed then sanded then wiped on Walnut stain. looked great going to try your method never to late to learn looks great try my method you will love it
The position of the cameras is just awesome, plus the looks are great, ty sir
Thank you!
Made my wife a picture frame using this paint technique and it looks amazing. I spent about $2 on the pine since there is a lumber yard on my street and $1 on glass from a cheap from at the dollar store. Thanks for the video!
+brodie659 that's awesome!!
brodie659 Hi kind sir. Great idea. My wifey would love when I surprise her with something like that..
Jj Benz lol my wife has mentioned she wants some romantic art frame old looking wood, so im searching for ideas, what he presented here does help me
This is an outstanding DIY tutorial. My wife pulled the "while we're here..." move when shopping this weekend. Walked into a joint that had all sorts of furniture with this same application, $300 later we now have a table that I could have easily distressed myself with your method.
That’s a great story . I know the feeling . Haha
thank you!!
Nice tips although to be honest I don’t fancy the angle grinder trick. What I have done previously is run a chisel down the sides and vary the pitch to create some uneven scallops. It creates an effect that looks almost like it’s been hand hewn with an axe. It is a bit strange I think that we all love wood that looks like it’s been beaten up after spending thousands of years (and dollars!!) developing and buying tools and machines that create perfect surfaces. Humans are funny creatures for sure!! That said, the piece turned out lovely so thanks for sharing 👍🏻🍻
awesome thanks for this DIY distressing technique
+Enrico de DIOS your welcome.
Enrico de DIOS Daru Daru wale ki video
I really like the look of the second one too! thanks very much mate, im doing a rope fence with a used jetty feel, this should do nicely but ill use more dark grey paint than black i think. cheers.
Awesome. Thank you . I am glad the video helps you.
Thanks for the info
Love it!!
nice work 👍 thanks for sharing
Thank you!
Thank you sir.
Very nice! I've ordered myself an angle grinder! :)
8:25 This one is awesome, man.
big THUMB UP....LOVED UR VDO..KEEP GOING
Great ideas! Found your channel via Life in Farmland. Subscribed!
+FatherAndSonFun 2015 Thank you so much!
Never occurred to me to water down the paint a little. That, and the rest of what you've done are great ideas--thanks cutie!
Nice video, Thank You for sharing.
Thank you!
Very clever. Very easy.
Thanks
Damn that orange paint style would be a sneaky way to get a bunch of light into a room!
Thanks mate
Nice !
Thank you for your time and video I would love to see how your kitchen cabinets turned out I hope you do a video on that you have great talent!
+Christine Razo thank you! Your not the first to ask... I might need to do a video soon
Would be great if you were a carpenter working like this in your workshop when the customer walks in and you're just randomly knocking your tools into planks
+Espen Løken that would be hilarious
B&O Craftsman I imagined some kind of mystical chanting to go with it.
People would be like. “Ahhhh... Carpenters in their natural habitat”
Wife: "what the hell are you doing in here?"
Me: *"I MAKE A TABUL!"* (commence forcefully bashing my tabletop with a bunch of brass fittings glued to a board)
Thanks dude
The black "stain" process reminds me of using a torch to scorch the wood. Similar look.
very nice
+j2nature thanks
That watered down brush, you can stand back and give it a quick shake towards the board. That will give the effect of worm holes in the wood. I had a grand father clock that had that look.
I like to embed the holes in the wood to give it the texture of worm holes. I like your Idea too. Thanks for Sharing!
Thx bro
A meat tenderizer hammer works well too. Leaves interesting textures and patterns.
That’s a great idea.
wonderful video...clear, simple and easy to follow. Exactly what I was looking for ! Can I ask what colours would I use to do a driftwood look??? I'm doing a beach theme. Would I under stain with grey and then white on top? What would you recommend? Thanks so very much. Thumbs up !
+mishti06 thank you for the kind comments. I would still stay with the dark stain first . The paint / water mixture is what will really determine the final color. Try an a grey or white paint . I would also suggest to try it on a sample piece of wood first just to make sure it's the color you want it. Maybe try with white paint and a grey paint and see what you think. I hope it turns out great!!
wow cant hear ya too good had to turn my pc up all the way.. but great Idea I will try this!! love this!! ! !
great tutorial, as others have mentioned. simple, straight forward, and most useful I've seen so far. the multiple camera angles are great. can't wait to try your technique. One question: what tool would you recommend as an alternative to the angle grinder? I couldn't justify purchasing one just for one project.
+Ruthie Torres Thank you for the kind words. Well , you could pick up a angle grinder at Harbor Freight for under 20 bucks. You could also get a similar effect by roughing the edges with a rasp or even a course grit sandpaper like 80 grit.
I bought a wire wheel for my drill and I'm extremely happy with it. It rips off the softer wood and raises the grain. If you leave it in one spot for too long it looks even better. Makes a nice looking gouge
Good video
Thank you
I think I will use your 2nd paint option on my next project with a slightly different color. Thank you for sharing. Would you actually put a protection over to avoid water stains? Thanks
I would put something like a water base poly.
Nice technique. My grandfather use to keep a five gallon bucket with water in it that he put scrap iron in. He would wipe his oak projects down with the water. The Iron in the water reacted with the tannin in the oak that gave it a really nice aged look. Not sure how this would work on woods like pine that has very little tannin.
+eCabinets tips and tricks Sounds interesting. I might give it a try.
A good coat of black tea helps woods with little tannin get the nice aged look!
Try mixing vinegar and steel wool, letting sit a couple weeks then apply and its awesome to gray fresh pine to look like 20 yr old barnwood in minutes. Let dry to make sure color is what you want before putting too many coats

hello, in this video you mentioned that you were putting together some farmhouse kitchen cabinet door. How did they turn out and did you make a video on that? thanks
+smvaldivia Thanks for the comment. I finished the doors for my kitchen cabinet using this technique . You aren't the first to ask about them so I may be making a video soon.
Lol... Ear protection is the least needed ppe... Love it
Hes tremendous..
cool
You can save a step by going to your local lumber yard and getting a clear stain tint base and having it tinted to any color you want.
+Keith Osborne great idea!
WOW.. THANKS !!
Can I use gray paint and get the grayed exterior barnwood look ?
Most definitely . Just make sure you try your mixture on a scrap piece first. And measure out your ratio of paint to water. Try 1 part paint to 1 part water . Most of all, have fun with it!
Great Video thanks. What kind of wood is that you are holding at the very end of the video? You said it’s something you had been working on. It looks killer!! Thanks
Shit hot. I'm a blaster by trade so this wud take me 20 seconds blasting it. Your way still does a good finish.
Is it possible to order a few wooden planks from you to be delivered to New York? the same one you did in this video, in grey color.
what color paint did you use on cabinet door project , i like it better than the black
Are you talking about the red paint? It was a dark maroon color from valspar
Great video ... my 15-year-old son and I banged out a 6-foot plank in 30 minutes. I am going to resurface some beams in my living room with this technique. I need to lighten it up and will tweak the colors a bit. Quick question ... is the Minwax water-based or oil-based. I used a water-based alternative brand stain on the board that I used. Any thoughts?
Minwax is oil based but they do sell a water based version. The one I used is oil based but the paint was water based. It worked fine.
Nice techniques. I like the black also. Is that last panel you show there done with the black paint technique? And I assume this is being done with something like Home Depot pine boards?
Thanks.
Yes your correct. They are pine boards from The box stores. I went with the black paint method on the final products. All the cabinet doors turned out nice.
Try a weedeater. It is surprising the mix of random/pattern you get!
I'm going to make a dining table using this technique. What would I seal it with after it dries?
Can I ask what stain you used for your cabinets at the end of the video?
+Brittani Clonts sure! It is minwax special walnut .
What did you use on the cabinet doors? I'm trying to get a more cool brown tone like that using pine trim. but every thing brings a golden warm tone out in the pine. Thank !
Great video, you got my subscription! Do you let the stain dry before applying the paint?
Yes.
Thank you for you subscription
Just found this video and I like your method to distress wood. Question: do you distress each piece of a project individually and then assemble afterwards? Or, do you assemble and then distress afterwards? I can see pros and cons for each. Thanks again.
It depends on the project. If your making something that is supposed to look like its been around a while, I would distress it after its assembled . But, if your making something such as a rustic wall, sign or a beam (like I Did in this video:ua-cam.com/video/niyxNkM-XIo/v-deo.html ) Then you would want to distress it before.
@@BOCraftsman Thank you for the reply. One more question: did you wipe the stain off soon after applying it? It is not clear in the video, but in the scenes that following the staining, it looked like it has been wiped. Thanks again.
An umber colored paint would work well, a little less 'black' than black but giving a dark aged effect.
I will try that next time. Thank you!
could you use generic craft store paint for the second method with watered down paint?
+Princess Daniella Sure you can. I have a small craft paint I've used before to do the same thing. It's the paint I used in my DiResta style mirror video . ua-cam.com/video/ucy5J2eJlUg/v-deo.html
+B&O Craftsman thank you! :)
did you use either of these techniques on your cabinet door?
or is it a store bought stain?
i really like the finish in that!
+splash I used the black paint method on all my cabinet doors. I'll be making a video soon to follow up on the results.
B&O Craftsman
Nice! Look forward to seeing that
How did you put your cabinet doors together with the bold joint? I am building a bar and think I would like that for joining the boards. I like to 2nd staining technique, I think I may give that a try. Thanks.
+delsurf71 thank you! Are you talking about the spline joint? I cut a dado into each end of the board and then put a strip of wood the thickness of dado and glued it. Maybe I'll shoot a video about it. It's more like a hidden spline joint .
+B&O Craftsman Thanks for the reply. I have to admit I probably can't do that. After thinking about it some I think I will just hit the edges with a sander and hope for the best. I will try it on a couple scraps first. I will use some of your finishing techniques on my bar though. Thanks.
+delsurf71 I'm glad to be of help. You can always attach boards to the back of the door going the opposite direction to give some strength to it.
did you use any pre stain or wood conditioner? I put the special walnut on and it looks darker then your application here
hello, what kind of painting it is and what color the liquid paint , good video.
+zero cool Just black acrylic paint. Thanks !
thanks
Thank you...making a dining room table and can save hundreds of dollars while having some fun...ever use a hand torch?
+Mark Rigoglioso I never have used on purposely on wood. Sounds like something I would like to try
+Mark Rigoglioso not yet but that is something I'm thinking to try .
Mark Rigoglioso the blow torch sort of is a replacement for the walnut stain step
Do you coat it with anything after the staining?
I usually coat it with a satin spray polyurethane . It’s enough to offer some protection but not change the overall appearance.
B&O Craftsman thank you!!
Have you washed it with brown instead of black paint?
I haven’t tried that .
Chuck Norris only needs to stare to make the wood distressed.
🤣I would get distressed if he stared at me.
Do you let the stain dry first
Yes for the stain. For the watered down paint, I just wipe it off as soon as it’s been applied
What type of wood did you start with.
+Jwh Merica I used pine in this example. This technique will work on all types of wood.
