Sooo glad to see you doing wood burning again. You inspired me to make all kinds of things using the technique and it is good to see you exploring it again. AND, your humor ALWAYS gives me a smile!! Cheers!!
I did a wall in my office using knotty pine with this treatment ... sort of looks like the wall behind you, but with a handful of different colors. It's an amazing look ... I also burned the shelves, coffee table and side table I built for my office. I love fire! edit: by the way, doing a full wall with burning, scraping and staining a bunch of different colors was a lot of work, but worth it.
I have a friend who created a ship lap wall using Kool-Aid to dye the boards, and they turned out remarkably well. A bit lighter than the ones you did on here, but they looked wonderful. I really like the way that the deep bun boards have such a remarkable contrast throughout each piece. They are absolutely stunning. I am getting ready to surprise my mom with an accent wall in her living room. Any kind of redecorating I do for her, she is like a little kid peeking and can't wait to see the end result. I just hope that the cedar that I have chosen looks half as good as the boards that you did. Thanks for sharing! Becca
Heyyyy, This was the topic I voted for just a few hours ago. Would like to see a full project done with this method. Any plans for something other than a simple how to style video?
Adding a comment and question to this video which is a year old may not get seen by you, hopefully it will. I am sure others will see it and may be able to help. I love the deeper burn and dyed wood, beautiful (not you, just kidding). Not only are your videos hugely informative, the all also very entertaining. Anyway, i am Harry from the UK and I am a complete novice but i am hell bent on covering an area 3 mtr x 2.5 mtr area using pine, at the back of my bar. I am currently trying out/learning burning, scrubbing and dying using some different products. This is an outdoor project, so my question is, what is the best Oil for exterior use, UV protection on burnt pine dyed with vibrant colours? Thanks in advance
Guess who's back....... Since your early vids I've done so many sugi ban finishes and it's all your fault 😉. From flags to outdoor kitchens to even medieval looking radiator covers. And it's all your fault. Did I say that already?. Still now I learned something new. The "c" bit. Quite important actually. .... with regards to lasers I am going to invest in one maybe soon. So then I have a backlog of vids to watch 😉. Thanks Nick 👍
Thank you sir.. for another entertaining and educational video about this process .. subscribed and watched most of all the S.S.B videos... My question is have you ever tried this on the blue stained Pine.??.. out west the beetles cause this effect on the wood.. Same thing happens here in Georgia if pine sits around in the summer humidity.. Just wondering if have ever tangled with any?. Looking forward to your response to this question and your next video.. . I will definitely use the link on your channel to buy those big torches when I get ready to pull the trigger here in the next few weeks..
Back to your roots! THIS is what made me subscribe to you originally. Now have to bookmark and keep this video for reference for burning. P.S. Someone else claimed spraying a mist of water n board before applying dye makes it much more appealing. Maybe a quick follow up with that method.
Commenting on this video from a year ago may not get seen by BDB. I hope it does or at least someone may be able to help. Your videos are great, not only entertaining but hugely informative. I love the deep burn and vibrantly dyed/stained woods, beautiful (not you, just kidding). Anyway, my name is Harry from the UK, this is the first time I have commented/questioned on any video, its also the first time I have tried this Shou Sugi Ban. I am hell bent on doing a large piece (3x2.5mtrs) at the back of my bar using pine floor boards. This will be external. So far I have practiced burning and dying with different products, results ok so far. My question is what type/Make of Oil should I use for burnt, dyed pine in external use, something that does not spoil the colours? Any advice would be useful, thanks.
Excellent Video! Have you ever worked with Blue Stain Pine (Beetle Kill Pine) doing Sho Sugi Ban? I am doing an accent wall and looking to pick up some of the red's, blues, and darker colors with a medium grey stain to get richer colors and more contrast than a barn wood. Have any ideas?
Great vid! I'm trying out a similar project using Shou Sugi Ban. Since this is my first time, I'm using pieces of scrap wood taken from the wood that I plan on using for the project and practicing with them. I can get a pretty consistent burn (light burn and a little heavier burn) but I've noticed that I'm getting yellow (sap?) spots developing after the burn. Does this mean that the "kiln dried" wood that I bought isn't really kiln dried. I've watched numerous videos on this technique and none of them show or mention yellow spots developing after the burn. Maybe I should try some wood from another store.
Hey I noticed that guitar body hanging on the back wall. Did you burn that one? If so can you show a bit about it? That's what I'm planning to do and would love to hear any tips.
I would like to see how you would do fire color I made a desk and I so suji ban it I would like to bring out all the yellows reds and oranges and browns I'd like to see you would do that maybe to help get an idea on how
If you had a piece say 1x8 and you were cutting out the bulk of the center, could you still keep warping to a minimum when burning the inside edges? I know the design wouldn't be the same to the wood grain but maybe a light burn just to keep with the rest of the piece
So Nick, you tried Kool-Aid and good dye with great results What would happen if you were to try both methods and then use a vacuum food sealer with more liquid? I wonder if it would deeply stain or all the way through? Thanks for your amazing videos
Curious about the smell. Especially a gator burn. Is my whole room going to smell like a campfire or does it get sealed in and dissipate w a finish? Thanks
I’m looking to make an American flag with light burnt pine with dyed red stripe and blue for the union stars. I’d like to add vinyl text along some of the stripes and am not sure if they will stick to the wood after a burn and dye? Before or after a topcoat. Any advice? Thanks
Man colors look ok, even green or blue. I use the burning tehnique to over 100 years old houses that i restore. I hawe to burn and treat, abd brush all the pieces. And after i use a coat of protective substance that usualy it is colored in order to restore the aged look
I played around with wood burning and tried making my own dyes. It turned out pretty (peacock colors) and I covered the bench with several coats of varnish. Bad plan on the varnish. It didn't do well. It cracked off and I lost some of the color. What do you use for an outdoor finish coat over the dye?
Your earlier wood burning stuff is what really got me motivated to try woodworking. I love it. So unique. Good to see you back at it and having fun
Yes he is back👍👍👍👍
Glad to see you coming back to this. It's what got me subscribed to you way back when.
Same here, it was the Shou Sugi Ban vids that first brought me to Build Dad Build
Sooo glad to see you doing wood burning again. You inspired me to make all kinds of things using the technique and it is good to see you exploring it again. AND, your humor ALWAYS gives me a smile!! Cheers!!
Unfortunately it doesn’t make me any money.
It's great to see you back at the woodworking material! You got some genuine laughs outta me! Absolutely great tutorial info here as well!
Good vid Nick. Nice job on Shou Sugi Ban finger nails. :)
The Restorer will strip paint, it will strip rust... but will it simply strip... 💃 I couldn't resist.
I did a wall in my office using knotty pine with this treatment ... sort of looks like the wall behind you, but with a handful of different colors. It's an amazing look ... I also burned the shelves, coffee table and side table I built for my office. I love fire!

Hes back doing what he does best playing with fire and colour. Glad youve come bCk to these. Be intrested see u do a table this way!🏴👍🫢
The green looked amazing it looked so busy and vibrant great job!
Nicely done!
Great video. I liked dm all but purple and yellow stood out. Thanks. Trying to get motivated to go home and do something.
Thanks for the link

Awesome video, love the dye colors. Maybe do a deep burn purple dye guitar body?
With plenty of smoke on the water 🤘😎
Now I gotta go watch The Crow again
Threw my switch too
Great video glad to see your back I've always enjoyed your videos rock on dude 🤘

Never come across this.
ok.. thanks again for the info.. you're the first one to talk about not burning the grain from that one side due to cupping.. appreciate you
I have seen it suggested to wet the burned side and the heat up the other side. It was explained that the fibers shrink from drying out.

Hey nick long time lover of the channel just wanted let know i experimented with clothing dye on burnt wood is so cool
Thank for the heart I have aurtisum and wood work helps me mentally and your videos are an inspiration
Excellent Video! Have you ever worked with Blue Stain Pine (Beetle Kill Pine) doing Sho Sugi Ban? I am doing an accent wall and looking to pick up some of the red's, blues, and darker colors with a medium grey stain to get richer colors and more contrast than a barn wood. Have any ideas?
I haven’t ever worked with it. Beautiful stuff. I’d stain something dark and go over it with a light sand and then finish with a lighter color.
Cheers
Great vid! I'm trying out a similar project using Shou Sugi Ban. Since this is my first time, I'm using pieces of scrap wood taken from the wood that I plan on using for the project and practicing with them.

I've watched numerous videos on this technique and none of them show or mention yellow spots developing after the burn. Maybe I should try some wood from another store.
Kiln dried doesn't "dry" or "evaporate" sap. That's normal. You can burn it out if you like. Or it will dry.
I suffer from a severe lack of imagination. What do you make with the burned and dyed wood? I really like the red!
I'm thinking to use the wood as my baseboards in my bedroom blue dyed, to blue painted walls
Hey I noticed that guitar body hanging on the back wall. Did you burn that one? If so can you show a bit about it? That's what I'm planning to do and would love to hear any tips.
I did. Made a video on it too. 👍🏻👍🏻
I would like to see how you would do fire color I made a desk and I so suji ban it I would like to bring out all the yellows reds and oranges and browns I'd like to see you would do that maybe to help get an idea on how

Yes
So Nick, you tried Kool-Aid and good dye with great results
What would happen if you were to try both methods and then use a vacuum food sealer with more liquid? I wonder if it would deeply stain or all the way through?
Thanks for your amazing videos
On the yellow dyed piece, was that a deep burn or surface burn?
Deep
Curious about the smell. Especially a gator burn. Is my whole room going to smell like a campfire or does it get sealed in and dissipate w a finish? Thanks
The smell dissipates. Seal and no smell.
@@BuildDadBuild awesome thanks. Lacquer seal would probably be better than oil I'm guessing enjoying your videos very much.
I’m looking to make an American flag with light burnt pine with dyed red stripe and blue for the union stars. I’d like to add vinyl text along some of the stripes and am not sure if they will stick to the wood after a burn and dye? Before or after a topcoat. Any advice?
Thanks
I think you’ll have a hard time getting it to stick. Ever thought of using a router or CNC.
Yes, I have a coworker that can make any decal I’d like that’s why I’m leaning towards vinyl.
Man colors look ok, even green or blue. I use the burning tehnique to over 100 years old houses that i restore. I hawe to burn and treat, abd brush all the pieces. And after i use a coat of protective substance that usualy it is colored in order to restore the aged look
Was that the Rendevous Purple or Purple Rain??
Rendezvous
I played around with wood burning and tried making my own dyes. It turned out pretty (peacock colors) and I covered the bench with several coats of varnish. Bad plan on the varnish. It didn't do well. It cracked off and I lost some of the color. What do you use for an outdoor finish coat over the dye?
Halcyon
@@BuildDadBuild Sweet thank you!
Is Folkart dye your favorite? How do you mix the colors to make it fire looking? Thx
Depends on the application
*Promo sm* 😓
