This is for some bottle shelving for a local tavern that has recycled
weathered and distressed wood ship-lap interior.
I'll post pics of the project later, but this is how I did the "treatment."
It took some practice on some scraps, but it was pretty fun and easy.

That looks really great. Pops the grain nicely.

Pretty neat.
Preheat the wood, first, before the charring? That makes sense.
I wonder how campfire charring would work, if you don't have a torch? More time needed, I suppose.

That is really neat. I have a bear carving I bought in Alaska which
is treated like that. The colors are reversed--the softer, light
colored wood is darkened the most.
But how did you stand on the wall to do it? ;>)

Hell, Bubba ... that was bunker decor throughout the Vietnam war.
Burnt plywood finish on the wall was the high class cat's ass in the
bunker of every unit that that could steal the plywood for their
firebase ... and the only finish available.
We called it "Special Forces Faux".
Thanks, but I'll pass ... ;)

ROTFL, and above it no less. :)

Looks good. Looks like pine? Seems like a decent method for creating
that effect. Thanks for sharing and hope you share more.
I've been contemplating this technique for projects but have not
really researched or tested yet. You've inspiried me. ;)

Found this a while back and thought I'd share it. A bit of a different
burning technique with nice results.

You caught that, huh?
Yes, I found out that if I preheated the surface that it was easier to
control the burn. It was easier to control and fine tune the amount of
darkening. If I went "all-in" with the torch right away, it would burn
too quickly. Go figure.
Of course, it was different on different grains. Some burned very
quickly and some wouldn't burn until it caught ablaze. Either way, I'm
please with the outcome and encouraged to have another finishing
technique that is very, very easy, all things considered.

And yes, you smart@$$es!, I rotated the video. :-p
It's better than loading it vertical and having a tiny little sliver of
footage on the screen.
Shooting it in that position was the only way I could get close enough
and not burn the toes off my wife's cute little feet.

Hilarious!
Karl, you'll appreciate that my client's dad is a high ranking, career
Army guy and combat veteran. I'll relay your sentiments to him next
time I see him and ask him what he thinks. :-)
Right now, they are both at The Jake in Cleveland for game 7!

Nice, beats trying to find a matching stain.
