Yakisugi Wood finish on furniture

A quick video to explain just how much I enjoy Scorching timber. It's such a quick process, but you really have to concentrate on the speed and the depth of the burn. (Well I have too) 


Just a minute and a half of me burning the stool at 10x speed with my thoughts on the process. You can watch the short video here

This finish on furniture is so good. It actually feels so natural, especially on more rustic, unusual pieces.


Will I be doing this again.. Oh yes. The first pieces I did were 6-7 years ago.


You will see more of the Yakisugi process as I get to grips with how I finish it with different Oil finishes.

And an invite to you. 


If you would like to watch the process as it happens, in normal speed, I have made a 14 minute video of scorching the Beech block and the Ash Legs. 

Full video here

Thank you

Jamie
