This whole series is a home run brother! New/interesting ✅ hasn’t been overdone on YT ✅ does a deep enough dive that someone doesn’t have to go searching/wading through a bunch of other videos/channels ✅ clear enough that there’s no ambiguity ✅ doesn’t go so dang basic that you’re fighting the urge to FF/skip ✅. Thank brother!

@-8_8- 5 лет назад

Not only is it better because it takes less time to watch, but since you link everything, you have chapters of instruction here and made it easy to get to the section you need help with. Good job. Also, you said it right. A little more clear might be that you want to see the radius on the outside edge of the block in order to know you're going to get some nice ring pattern on the face of the block.

@zach4744 Год назад

Thank you for relaxing and helpful video! I appreciate your narrative heavy videos as I can't look at my phone while driving. I just was picking up more shopvac bags for my first shou sugi ban job. 300 square feet and used a brush torch. So far so good thanks to you!

I burnt a 1x4"x 8' piece of KD Fir today, it was straight when I started but by the time it was all burnt it was bent like a recurve bow.. so, I burnt the other side and it straightened right back out. Just a tip for if you're starting this and you want a straight piece. I am doing this for baseboards in my bathroom and it's really looking awesome.. you also definitely want to use transparent stain if you're intending to stain the wood and to try to wipe it off the darkened raised grain first and you want to stay with the lightest stain color you can to give that extra contrast

@arronhg1 5 лет назад

So I just really started my wood working journey. I have gravitated towards the wood burning, but had several questions that your series addressed. Thank you. I wondered about how to select the wood, what would happen if I stained the burnt wood, and I thought what I was doing was great, but I know know that all I was doing was just a surface burn. Now I have a better idea of what I need to be doing to make my projects better. Thank you again for putting together these videos. I have subscribed and will be following your videos.

I really appreciate the time you take to explain this technique. You get right to the point, without a ton of romance. I've absolutely fallen head over heart for this Japanese inspired technique and i plan on doing much more of this in the future. What is the most effective and efficient tool to use, for heating the wood? Besides a basic torch. Thank you and I hope you will continue sharing.

@InspireWoodcraft 5 лет назад

Thanks! I use the small torch and a large weed torch. The large torch is much hotter and burns faster but also can be too hot and fast for certain things. For small pieces the smaller torch really does the trick.

The whole series is a great tutorial on Shou Sugi Ban. Always love your to-the-point videos. One quick question - For shou sugi ban do I need to start with fine sanded smooth surfaces or rough sanded is good enough? My understanding is rough sanding might be good enough as anyway I am going to burn and brush away the wood. Would love to hear your opinion. Thanks in advance.

Any advice for working with assembled, sanded, wood? This is a great series. We will be applying this technique to an unfinished, assembled, (eastern?) white pine aquarium stand. I'm thinking sealing the alligator skin on the trim and coloring the sides like you've done here.

@H2Dwoat 4 года назад

Hi, I was considering using some heat treated pallet wood for some garden projects and was considering shou Sugi ban to protect the wood. I want to avoid paints or stains that might have an effect on any vegetables I might be growing. Do you think the pallet wood might be too thin?

@T0tenkampf 5 лет назад

Great series of vids, I use Sho Sugi Ban more traditionally as fire, water, and weatherproofing. I think you are missing out by not using it on cypress (sugi) and cedar. Both take the process well and have a great natural color similar to cocobolo when completed. There are Japanese temples that are thousands of years old made this way and only require periodic application of tung oil.

@lifedogtraining Год назад

When you do cedar, do both white and red cedar work well? Also, have you tried using stain on cedar after? How did it take? I want to create some grey shou sugi ban cedar shutters, trying to figure out if the cedar will take the burn well. Whether I should do surface burn to pop grain or deep and dig out - if it digs out alright being harder, AND if I can stain the light sections grey to make the entire piece a black charred/silver type wood look in the end. Thanks!!

@MohammedHassan-nm2fr Год назад

You recommend using a soft wood but would this work on a piece of magnolia and if so what extra steps/precautions would be required ?

Hi, just discovered you and saw in a comment that you recommend cedar or redwood for outdoor projects (which I understand cedar was the ancient choice of the Japanese). But for us east coast folks is pressure treated pine not an option? Too toxic to burn?

@teekaheadmofo8997 4 года назад

I would like to build a farmhouse style table with a Shou Sugi Ban finish using 2x6 doug fir. My question is that typically when gluing the top pieces together you will want to alternate end grains to avoid cupping or warpage over time. Is there a way around this? Will the opposite pieces that are turned grain down still turn out okay? Or is there a way to have all outside grain facing upward, while avoiding any eventual warping?

@beardznbratz7874 Год назад

This is great! I am gonna try this. I have a question though. I have a piece of wood that my papaw made for my parents with their last name on it and it was like a light colored wood but I sanded it down and it turned orangish-red. I was wondering if you jad any idea what kind of wood it is? Maybe if I showed you a pic? It’s cool if not. Great videos! Thank you!

@InspireWoodcraft 6 лет назад

Well thanks! Yeah I don’t see why not. I personally haven’t had the opportunity to try. I would only be concerned with cupping, but if you burned both sides of the board, it should flatten back out just fine.

Thanks for asking. I have, and I couldn't get very good results with either. Might not be aggressive enough brushing.

@GOLDVIOLINbowofdeath 2 года назад

I think Papa would be a big waste of time and money but I would recommend you try the maple. The advantage of Poplar is essentially the lack of grain so it makes for good wood if you want to paint it which is the opposite of what you want here
