Man got some dowells bc I found your channel. And for the life of me I can't get it to look like that. I have used this technique before on different things and it worked for me. Even did a 15 by 12 mancave room floor one time. And can't do these dowells for some reason. Think the are poplar and they have great looking grain...I don't know I don't know why...
If it's poplar it won't look like that, the ones I'm burning are pine, believe it or not there's still sap present and it helps with the burning. The best way to handle the poplar is to torch the whole thing evenly then go back and sand it as evenly as possibly to your desired look.

@@timpevey868 ok thanks I was going crazy.. and even though I love working with wood I hate sanding lol.. so Im sure you know how much work ihad to do to remove the char. I gave up and just oiled the hell out of the to bring out the grain. Wish I could get them to look like yours though. Trying pine and oak next time. They were just more expensive.
I don't know what I did wrong but I could not - for the life of me - get my stick to burn like yours. I did everything you said, even went out and bought the same torch as you. The torch seemed to just create a patchy pattern and would not highlight the grain pattern. Any tips?
@@hanz79wvu it definitely takes practice and a smooth flow! I'll try to do another video in the near future that'll show the process a bit better. If you aren't happy with how it looks, torch it black then go back and sand to your liking, you get a beautiful ebony!
Hi, I’ve done this to one of my sticks for aesthetics and to waterproof it, mine is black all over though. I believe charring wood seals it and prevents water getting in. I have seen videos where lengths of wood or wooden shingles are charred before fixing to a roof or the sides of a timber frame building for protection.
I've never tried maple, but I would think it would have a similar effect, but please use a scrap piece to practice, I don't want to be responsible for ruining a good maple stick! 😊 You're welcome!

That's it, not that you can't do it with other woods, but the pine dowels are just perfect for it. What I'd say is if you have a black torched stick, just sand the fire out of it and see if you can get a good look that way.

You'll get it, just takes practice!
Oh that's so cool!!!
Thank you!

Were you using pine dowels?
@@timpevey868 Yup. Sanded them. and then burned them to create a not-so-great patchy pattern.

So cool! Is the main purpose for aesthetics? Or does it toughen the wood in some way?

Will you be showing us how you attach the figure to the stick.
Yes Sir.
Can't wait.
Does this work with hardwood like maple? Nice job; thanks man!

@@timpevey868 will do. Got my buddy doing preliminary tests now. Will let you know how it goes. Thanks again, be well.
You're welcome!
🤩👏bellissimo 👏🤩👍👍👍💪
Grazie
very nice
Thanks Gene!
How long do those canisters last on average. Do you get a few done with one .
Oh they last a good while, I haven't kept count, but many sticks.
When i made one of my sticks i used a candle LoL ha ha ha it looked good
Hey, whatever works! 😄
@@timpevey868 yes LoL ha ha ha.. I'm in Arkansas I've got a handful of sticks
What part of Arkansas?
@@timpevey868 around Cabot Arkansas Ward Arkansas and bebe Arkansas.. it's too dangerous to give out phone number or address.. pretty sad that people are like that now..
Yep, never give that info. out! I've got family all around that area.
I'm sorry what is the reason for this just curious
That's gives it the color that looks like stain, really makes the grain pop.
@@timpevey868 kool do I need to do all my sticks this way?
Nope, that's just for decoration, just an easy way to add character.
There seem to be different sizes of jets for the burners. Is yours a wide one.
No, it's not wide, but yes there's many different tips.
Pine rosin is burning.
@@coolairaz yes, it works well!
I tried this and my stick just got black
You have to stay in constant movement. Was it a pine dowel?
@@timpevey868 Thanks Tim. No, I dont know what kind of wood it was
That's it, not that you can't do it with other woods, but the pine dowels are just perfect for it. What I'd say is if you have a black torched stick, just sand the fire out of it and see if you can get a good look that way.
@@timpevey868 Thanks very much
You're welcome Sir!
