I live in the middle of the city I have never made anything out of wood except putting together Ikea furniture why am I here why can't i stop watching omg this is just enchanting.
Neala Ernswa Thanks for watching!
God, if you weren't so attractive you would put me to sleep. How tedious. Just get to the gist and explain the technique. I don't care about the historical process. If I want to study history I would study Japanese wood craftsmanship. They make Americans look like butchers. OK, 1:46, I'm done with you. Pretty, intelligent or not. You're putting me to sleep.
elan really you read my mind.. ZZZZZZZZ
Paul Bennett then why did you watch it?! what use is this comment? I like learning through history you weeb.
Neala Ernswa. The point of my comment is to be honest with how I saw the video, the content IS interesting but in MY opinion was delivered in a very odd, tedious fashion.
Oh well, I guess I'm just a weeb, what ever that may be.
I enjoyed this video. You are not just finishing a chair, you are creating a family member. Thank you for sharing with us.
came for the wood finish, stayed for the philosophical pondering. :p great video
kavkazip I sometimes wonder what people will make of things that are not totally expected. Thanks for your comment.
+Darbin Orvar I think you said it best when you said "time adds value." When making a piece I expect it to age and show wear which adds character (value). Well said Lynn.
༼ຈل͜ຈ༽ノ l: too bad. I love the "hipster."
Her philosophical pondering sounds kind of like the game getting over it
@@darbinorvar Love linseed oil, I always use it on pine prior to varnishing & smells nice too.
WOW ! gonna have to try it ! This resembles a finish that I have begun using this year (2016) Tung Oil and Cinnamon . The Cinnamon does not dissolve in the oil but acts like a sediment filling in the low spots . I pour oil over the wood then add Cinnamon and use a sanding block with 400 grit or 600 grit . Allow to dry and repeat with or without the Cinnamon . The Cinnamon will be course at first but will grind to a fine powder quickly and with repeated oil only coats . I searched the Internet for instructions on a Cinnamon Finish but found none , so I tried it and love the results . I am an amateur woodworker , actually a "Below Amateur" woodworker and I would like to see Cinnamon or Brick Dust become more common , it adds to the specialness of your project . I may try other spices as well , maybe Chili Powder , cumin , etc . Someday I would like to make a Coffee Table , stained with real Coffee . - Really !
It's strange - I'm watching Linn finish this project and my mind keeps saying "Oh no! Make sure you catch those drips or they'll stain the finish!". And then I recall that raw linseed oil has a very long drying time compared to other finishes.
Wonderful video, Linn! Your narration was downright poetic.
Yep that OCD part of my personality kicked in when I saw the oil drops but shes finished the job well
I like how clean and organized your work space is...how you put everything in its place while going from one step to the next. And in graceful fashion! Inspiring. Good job!
such a soothing and nostalgic feeling in your voice and music and yet it is a real constructive work
What a lovely gentle voice this lady has. An excellent video. I feel so relaxed. Thank you!
glad to see someone is forwarding the old ways and talents
Your observations from 4:30-5:50 hit the nail right on the head!What a fascinating process.
Nice! I think this video is about Zen! The brick dust is really interesting stuff!
It's nice that you have the luxury of time and patience, you sound very educated from good family, your lucky ...freedom of thought and ease of choice is a precious thing.
This was certainly a passionate and inspiring commentary for quality in the craft of woodworking. Haven't heard anything like it before.
The asmr I needed. I love woodworking and sleeping well.
Poetic and thoughtful commentaries and approach almost on all of your videos, especially on this one.
It shows what a wonderful soul you are. Thank you.
Working with one's hands and with natural materials to create useful, yet well constructed and finished is our closest connection to our earthly life here. As old as antiquity yet as relaxing as listening to good music on a sunny day. Meditative state accompanies detailed work focus. I get it. The time it takes to make the finish along with applying it over weeks makes you think about this instant society we all live in with the lack of patience and concentration showing up in some of our offspring. Protection against burn out, I suppose. In a good way, of course, working the wood and the brick dust is a first. Wondering what the final finish came out as.
problem with method , you need to filter the dust . Otherwise you will scratch it defeating all the perp work done to put the finish on . I'm a Finisher of 30 years . I have had to learn all finishes over the years.Wither it's sprayed, brushed , rolled, French Polished all depends on the customers wants learn everything .P.S. hang drying objects to save floor space .
You really did a great job editing and writing this video. Took the words out of my mouth with the finishing thoughts.
+Yinon Sofer Thanks for watching!
Gostei muito deste projeto, sobretudo por utilizar produtos naturais. Há algum tempo assistir um tio utilizando pigmentos de uma planta brasileira (sementes de urucum) misturadas ao álcool diluído com água e óleo, se não me engano, de coco. O resultado foi um tom vermelho muito lindo, com brilho discreto e uniforme. É pena que na época eu era uma criança e nem imaginava a importância daqueles recursos que ele utilizava. Ele morreu há muito tempo, mas quando assisti ao seu vídeo fiquei muito feliz em saber que uma pessoa tão linda e talentosa como você segue os mesmos princípios de meu tio. Parabéns pelo seu trabalho, gostei muito, realmente você é uma pessoa muito talentosa e caprichosa.
I really enjoyed this project, mainly by using natural products. For some time watching an uncle using a Brazilian plant pigments (annatto seeds) mixed with alcohol diluted with water and oil, if I'm not mistaken, coconut. The result was a very lovely red tone, with discrete and uniform brightness. It is unfortunate that at the time I was a child and had no idea the importance of those resources he used. He died long ago, but when I watched your video I was very happy to know that such a beautiful and talented person as you follow the same principles of my uncle. Congratulations for your work, really liked, you really are a very talented person and capricious.
Something about listening to this is very calming. It's almost poetic. I bet you would make a great hypnotherapist.
I found myself quite captivated and transported to another age with your combination of philosophy and method.
Will you read a book to me? You have such a soothing voice and way. Another awesome video. Thanks
best short movie in a while!
I just became mesmerised... absolutely wonderful commentary. I loved it. Thank you.
Adrian Grantham Thank you!
It's the zen of oil finish videos. Now I need to shave my head and trek to the Himalayas.
One of the best finishing videos I've seen. Glad I found your channel.
Michael Meara Thank you. I really appreciate that :)
Love this. It reminded me of the value of not rushing - of taking time. It made me feel very peaceful.
Poetic. I'm glad someone can put into words what I feel when I use a plane and not a planer, or a card scraper over sand paper. Thank you so much.
Wow , I love the commentary, it's kind of like a documentry for woodworking. Amazing
By your words and care for your work I know you are a master of your trade.
that was very relaxing - the video, Darins' voice, the whole process...marvellous - almost a meditation.
Beej H what am I saying -it was a meditation :-}
WOW. This is one of those thoughtful, reflective pieces that speak directly to the natural artistic sense. It's not just about woodworking. Well done, you!
That was cool and so were you. Thanks for posting this.
It's important to learn something everyday.
Wow! I never though that watching woodworking video I will feel like on some psychidelic drug listening to your voice as magnet. ;)
Wood is living, even after it has been cut. The love put into a piece will give that energy off. The world is angry. Fake furniture has that role. Thank you, for your Love. An Artist is one that work with their hands, brain AND Heart. (See Louis Nizer) Cheers.
Well that is the most relaxing and enjoyable oil videos i have and probably will ever watch. 😌🙏. Thank you
I think this is now my new favourite channel.
Never thought I could be mesmerized by an oil refinishing video-part philosophy, part old world craftsmanship. Thank you Darbin for the journey.
I would loathe chiseling a brick like that and soon resort to a sledge hammer lol
Wow, you really touch my life with your wisdom. Thank you!
What a great idea Linn! Keep the good videos coming!
What a great video! The spontaneous narration is wonderful. I love applying oil. It's so pleasantly sensual. It feels like breathing life back into an inanimate object.
You have the most relaxing voice...i nearly fell asleep watching this
+fds First ASMR for woodworkers :)
Hypnotic. Good stuff!
Never seen this method been done before, heard about. Interesting to see how the final result turns out after several coats. Great video.
Man I have never seen a shop so clean. Mine is usually covered in sawdust and all my work benches have chips and holes in them from screw-ups.
+Darbin Orvar i really love how you deepen in your thoughts with simple enjoyable things and then you share them with us, i was lost from reality while listening your ideas and voice, very nice, greetings!!
Excellent view of furniture and its aging. I totally agree with you there. I will have to try the brick and linseed finish (although it would not match with anything I currently own).
I'm also a Pentax fan and love that you're looking at old Takumar lenses (on your blackboard at 1:10). They are truly amazing lenses.
BeaconHillFireworks Thank you. I actually shot the video with that Super Takumar lens. The old ones work great for video.
Nicely Done. I'm starting to rethink my excessive use of spray poly from a can.
this channel is Perfect!
hello, great idea.. i have already used it and the final result was a great looking and quite durable finish.. but what is the liquid that you mixed with the dust @ 2:20? is it water??
I'm currently working on a project where I added rust (iron oxide) to linseed oil to give the wood some extra color.
Terrific video.
Curious as to why you didn't keep your workbench protected when applying the oil?
Seems like you had to spend a lot of time after cleaning it - when it might have been easier to leave the paper that was there in the first place?
That was very nearly intoxicating. Beautiful video, cool finish, great food for thought.
That was not only a concept or idea , it was real journey somewhere long time ago ....
WOW
You're a great film maker...An artist! Thank you.
Is it hard to get consistency with the brick dust? Doesn't it sink down through the oil to the bottom of the pot? How do you get a consistent spread of the brick dust through the oil as you put it on the wood?
What a relaxing video to start the morning with, thank you.
Your passion for finishing is amazing. Believing in our efforts than through machines is copying the passion of God who carved everything on earth. Great dedication. Keep it up.
compared to your current videos this is actually awesomely poetic.
I find that this video has a meditative affect, the perfect thing to watch before facing the demons of the day ;-) Thanks Linn!
I haven't read all the comments so I don't know if it was mentioned before - there are so many comments. An easier way to get the brick dust is to use a masonry drill and drill holes in the brick. Then use the fine dust it creates.
Thank you, Darbin. love the poetic narration on this one.
Wow!!! I feel the same way👍
You just put my feelings into words
Thank you
Adrian Hanson Thanks for watching!
I admire your patience for raw linseed oil. Never heard of brick dust finishing before today. Edit; found the reference in Martin.
It's an organic finish. It's alive, it grows and changes over time. It does not just sit there doing nothing, it progresses. I make silver jewellery, its the same...
Awesome video. Thanks a lot.
What was the first liquid you put in the powdered brick?
Love your video. TY for the surprise trip.
Your voice is so beautiful and calming.
This video really spoke to me. Thank you for making it for us, I'm subscribing immediately.
How much does the oil become pigmented with the brick dust? Does it act like oil paint in any way?
It is like paint, but you would need a much higher concentration of dust than I used. I went with 1/2 cup dust to 2 cups oil. If you used 1/2 cup of dust you might only want a few tablespoons of oil for something more like artist oil paint.
Beautiful technique, great video!
Thanks Darbin. This is awesome!
That's really nice thanks for the commentary
Loved watching this video and seeing your technique. I'm curious why you used raw linseed oil instead of boiled linseed oil?
Wow, that was totally unexpected! Great to see you re-creating the old finishes, though I did think that in Thomas Sheraton's day the brick dust was used as a grain filler for the red mahogany everyone preferred in the 18th century rather than as a pigment. Like the sodium or calcium carbonate used as a grain filler in light colored woods. That was the only use of chalk in finishing I knew of until you posted your chalk paint video. Keep up the adventures in wood finishing!
Love your work :).
I picked up an old rocking chair from the street that needs love and care.
I have been staring at it a few weeks and doing research about how to bring it back to life.
This video helped me a lot, your philosophy fits mine better than the suggestions of the local craftsman.
I do have a question though, should I use Lineseed oil for certain benefits besides the staining ability?
or would I get the same kind positive results with other oils?
What are the brick dust going do to the finish? Is it going to make it darker then just linseed oil? Awsome video :)
I just showed this to my husband, who is finishing with boiled linseed oil right now. He wanted to see the finished product, and I looked on your page, and couldn't find it. Would you post another video of the finished product on this finish? Thank you.
PS. I love your philosophical narrative style!
Thanks. I finished and showed the chair in a video about beeswax polish: DIY Making Beeswax Polish for Furniture
This video is art.
I recent view this video, and I want to know, how does the chair end? Sorry for my english
I wanna get this stoned while working one day. That's a serious goal now.
Renan Ribeiro the work alone is sufficient, no cannabis is required. This reminds me of the psychological phenomenon of flow states, which I definitely experience woodworking, and are totally worth looking into if you aren't familiar with them.
Well done! Thanks for sharing.
Oh man. I think I put the linseed oil on too thick and did a second coat too soon. Great vid. I was just googling linseed oil tutorials and found this.
love this video and the peace you bring in a making video. Brilliant! and making great points:)
Beautiful video. I love your voice overs!
A beautiful video and thought-provoking philosophical discussion. Very interesting.
Nicely done, Linn! I've never even heard of this finish before.
Hey, love your videos. Thanks so much for the content! I'm about to start a kind of modern nightstand that will have black walnut and tulip poplar and a waterfall edge. Anyway, it will have a dog bed on the bottom, and since I do sometimes eat snacks in bed, I wanted to finish it with a food-safe oil (for me and the dogs). Plus, I want a more natural look anyways. Then I was going to use a wax to finish it up. Well, I was going to use tung, but then a buddy of mine said that poplar has a tendency to yellow with age with oils like tung and teak. I wanted to see what you thought, and I wanted to see if maybe the linseed with beeswax polish might be the way to go. Any ideas? Thanks!
+Justin Dimos Thanks Justin, many light colored woods darken or yellow when oil products are applied. Whether it is tung or linseed it will affect the color the same. Unless you first added a water based poly it is hard to find a colorless clear coat when using oils. But you could apply a wax polish over any other type finish. I hope that helps.
Wonderful narration!
I thought this was nothing but wonderful!!
working on a piece of furniture over a peroid of time becomes a class for you. your are learning from it and its teaching You. You have your hammer mortar and pestile but you could go to a brick seller and sweep some dust up from the ground that speed up the process a little bit liks anything process you learn the basics then learn how to do faster or better and how to keep the quality up
Is it possible to use coconut oil instead
Darbin, love the video...your voice-over was kept me interested throughout.
this was just a coincidence but, I was listening to you talk about life and was listening to Michael Jackson's "Heal the World" in the background and it fit so perfectly
Oil is simple to apply, but chemically, what happens is pretty complicated. As it cures, the oil forms polymers (plastic, if you will) with the wood.
Thank you for sharing!
Very interesting video and finish. Excellent presentation.
Thanks so much John. Glad you liked it.
i love you. its so good to see this video ; the bitter truth of the world ; in a way good and bad. loved the idea of bringing time into the light because no hand made wood furniture can be made in a day. your words are mature and beautiful as your liking for wood from within. thank you dear so much.
Nicely done.
