      why every time I burn pine I get broken vein lines and dark spots instead of how yours come out with nice solid vein lines etc ? You should put links in this video that you mention so we don't have to try and search for those particular videos.

      I found these videos after surface burning some cypress counter tops & cabinets my husband built. The client had purchased Unicorn Spit to color said projects. I talked them into letting me burn the wood for more contrast than just blending the colors, going along grain lines as many other people did. The result was nice, but with your detailed instructions, future projects should be even better. Thanks for explaining the whys in all that you do.

    You are single handedly the one who has taught me all that I know and love in this beautiful art! From the very first name holding snippet video to now, I have watched and learned more than any little chick should know. It's not uncommon to hear my 11 year old son say "Mom, could ya maybe put the blow torch down, take off your safety glasses, and come fix supper already?" So from the bottom of my heart, thank you for all the time, dedication, and effort you put forth, and for not to taking the cruel words of others slow you down. Like I always say, don't accept the criticism from someone you wouldn't go to for advice. You stay you, and Shine Bright!

I made an electric blue table with copper legs using this way and it looked cracking. Defo a top finish in my book.

    For those that don't know... Steel wool has a very light oil or other rust preventative on it when it in the pack. It's a good idea to rinse it a bit in acetone of brake cleaner if your project might be affected by a trace of oil.

I’ve just started doing woodworking and want to make things that are different for friends and family gifts, you’ve really inspired to dive into this technique.
    I was wondering have you ever tried to seal the wood without brushing, so you have the fully charred look, if so what would you suggest for sealing it and keeping a matte look? I’ve seen you use spray polyurethane before, would that seal it enough to stop it from flaking and breaking apart? That is if I’ve not missed that in another video.

    Steel wool trick I learned. For a really fine finish. Take a bun of 0000 and unroll it. Go outside (this is a little smokey) and hang it on something that wont burn. (wire coat hanger, screw driver, etc) Light the bottom and let it burn all the way up. It now is dark gray and has some shiny threads that didn't burn. Pull those out. Re-roll or fold to a new bun. What you have, I call wool ash. It is very soft and fine, has no shiny bits to get stuck in the wood grain or finish. Try a couple tests to compare the different grades of steel wool to see.

    Thank you for doing this video Jodie. Last night I had a brain fart with the white. I was looking for all sorts of ways to speed things up. I ended up grabbing a rubber block I used when wet sanding my car. Anyway l kept it at about a 45 degree angle and pulled. Kind of like a squeegee action. Pull and wipe each time. I did it right after i applied the paint. If you screw up just add paint and squeegee away. It was actually pretty quick. I experimented with all different types but the first was by far the best

    All that work that a guy puts in together that grain blackened was the poin lt to begin with . Get that black back out guys! Cheers

One question though, once the steel will process is done, would that be when you poly it to finish? Again I’m doing mine in a bathroom so it’ll need to be moisture protected.

    I am using this technique and the white stain for my saltwater aquarium. What protective coating do you recommend that won't yellow? During water charges water gets spilled on the stand often. Btw ty for these videos🥰🤩😍

    For the antique white what do you recommend to seal the wood for exterior use?

    Sorry if you’ve already been asked this, but do you put any protective coats over the finished product?
    Looks amazing btw and thank you. I can’t wait to do my wooden bed frame 🙂

    You made shou-Sugi-ban much easier for me to understand, thank you! Note to self....grab some steel wool. Do you have a list of needed items for woodworking? I’m just now getting my “shop” set up and would love some pointers

    I thoroughly enjoyed all of your shou sugi ban videos. Have you tried using a dust hood to catch the dust when using the Nyalox brushes. When I am using the Nyalox brushes, I have the drill going in reverse, so to project the dust away from me, which works, but the dust just ends up going up in the air. I am going to try a dust hood attached to a 4" hose to from my dust collection. I though maybe you might have tried something.

    I'm making a interior door with charred pine. If I want to char to a deep gator finish -- what's the best way to seal that finish without losing the gator effect? I assume once it's burnt to a gator finish, I don't brush it or sand it. How should I best remove the dust and then seal it so it looks awesome? Thanks SO much. I have truly enjoyed your videos!

    For a burn & brush piece what would be better a solid color stain or transparent stain? Would like to know before I do this for a fence

    Last year I bought 6 2-3 ft lengths of 6x6 beam. Decided to make some centerpiece candle holders using this method. Did the red and blue and everyone seems to love it.
    After doing the burning, went over it with a wire brush. Then went over it completely with a soft bristled bench brush. I applied the stain with a foam brush and let it sit a while. Wiped off the stain with a clean cloth rag. After drying. I used spray shellac or polyurethane. I've found the spray is easier to use. The other colors I want to try is orange, green, and now white after watching this video.
    Inspire Woodcraft, do you have an email so I can send you pictures after these are done?

    What's your take on finishing individual pieces before assembly? I'm sure it depends on the specifics but do you have a loose guide ya follow. AND, lol...have you had problems with warping and cupping?
    Thanks for all the vids... Learned a lot 👍👍

    great instructional video as always - I love the white finish - looks like zebra stripes! thanks for the effort you put into making these - wondering if using a scotchbrite burr in a dremel/drill might avoid scuffing off some of the blackened ridges on top whilst keeping the white stain intact?

      I don't think I've experimented much with ScothBrite but I don't see why it wouldn't work.
