DIY Wood Burning Technique - That's not Shou Sugi Ban! Or is it??
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 เม.ย. 2019
- I use this burnt wood finish technique on most (if not all) of my builds. This is a How To get that burnt wood finish or How To stain wood with fire...and stain! There's always an argument over if this technique is true Shou Sugi Ban or not. So, I'll just call it a Torched Wood Finish!!
I get asked a lot how I achieve this look, so I figured I'd make a video showing my process.
Anybody else like to light projects on fire?

What was the name of the last stain you used?
Ryan R the Sunbleached (white) or the Simple Finish (Black can)?
@@BuildDadBuild sunbleached is what I was looking for. Thank you!
Ryan R sure thing. amzn.to/2WddZoe
You are so cool.just found you.watching you from Portugal.just having trouble in finding the products for the finishes.
That’s how you smoke your liver dude!!! :)
You can't find too many videos with someone who not only has mastered their craft, but can explain in an efficient and coherent manner so everyone can understand what your doing. Keep up the good work, I'm subscribing.
Thank you. 👍🏻👍🏻
I recently finished a coffee table with doors to work on puzzles. I was inspired to use the Sunbleached stain from this video. I also torched the whole thing and it turned out great. Already sold! Thank you for your videos man! Wouldn't have known of the stain otherwise!
That's awesome!

My favorite part of this video is where he scrapes the burnt wood onto the driveway, just like most dad's would do.
love the grey finish ! I have been a painter most of my life . I got into stripping old houses early on in my career and stayed with that as much as possible.i have worked on houses through out the south and have done houses from 80 - 100 + years old and some with slave quarters still on site . I have striped and restain using all kinds of methods . never have i done any wood burning like this , but always wanting to try new things to improve my skills and this is it . Thanks for the video
Your welcome! 👍🏻👍🏻
Absolutely loved that last "sun-bleached" stain. I live on the coast of BC, Canada and I just love finding pieces of sun-bleached driftwood for my art pieces. I'll definitely be looking into getting some of that stuff!
Thanks for the video!
Thanks for watching!
Had to subscribe , I enjoyed the amount of detail put into your craft.
Thank you! 👍🏻👍🏻
Yep. You've earned my sub.
I burn nearly all of my projects. One of the recent videos I'm working on has some major cupping... Using water before and between burns? Absolute genius. Thank you so much for that tip.
Sure thing. Thanks for the sub!
Ive watched 2 minutes of this and I just found it trying to build a vise and already I love you haha
Sweet! Welcome to the fray...
Cheers!
👍🥃👍🥃👍🥃
This dude is not only informative but also naturally cool & fun to watch ! chuckles & a smile on my face THATS worth SUB Thanks bro.
Thanks for the sub!
Cheers!
Sugi (Japanese cypress), the su part is like soo, as opposed to shoe. You'll see this burnt sugi siding on traditional homes because of its excellent resistance to rot. Sugi is a great building material because even prior to burning it resists both pests and water. I've built with both pine and sugi and while pine is a heavier material, it doesn't hold up over time unless pressure treated, when exposed to the elements for years on end. Keep your stick on the ice.
Thanks for the info!
I am learning awesome things from you and I am so grateful! You are funny, fun, and your videos are packed with great info. Hopefully one day I can have a studio with all the cool and useful things you have but for now, I am happy with my mini blow torch experimenting and learning from you! God bless and thank you again for sharing your knowledge and know-how!
You are welcome!
Cheers
I'm doing a wood burn ceiling in our house! This video helped out so much! Thank you
You're welcome!
Ok, this REALLY has me wanting to try this...ESPECIALLY the last technique haha.
Ethan Carter that was is the best! 😜😜🥃🥃
I love ur work... I’m learning tons from u... and u r freaking hilarious!! Thank u for your videos!!
Thanks, Brandi!
Cheers
Thanks. You just gave me an awesome idea for a project I’m doing. Love the sun bleach stain.
Awesome. Let me know how it turns out!
I just recently decided to start getting into woodworking and this technique has definitely got my interest! Thanks for the info. You've got my subscription.
Awesome!
Welcome to the Fray, Penelope!
Cheers
Good info! I have to set more of my projects on fire I think, haha!
+John the Schreiner haha! It's my therapy!!
That 'sun bleached' stain looked really good, may have to try that myself.
It was a total shock to me how well that turned out.
They were all good but that one was something else.
And I just found how I'm gonna finish my camper van. Just bought a torch and sunbleached stain. Thanks Pops!
Absolutely welcome! Let me know how it turns out!!
Great video! Im not new to finish work, as I run a finish dept for a millwork company. I know of this technique but never really looked into it until I saw your video! Now I'm hooked! I will definately be doing my own research on burning coloration on different species of wood. I see an entire wood frame living room set in my future using this technique!
That's awesome. And sounds super cool. Let me know how it turns out!
Cheers
I’ve watched many shou sugi ban videos and this is the first I’ve seen anyone use water before and between burns to avoid cupping. Nice tip !!!
And the smoked bourbon at the end!!!
First of all, thank you. And second...smoked whiskey is the BEST!!
@@BuildDadBuild Now i need to go get Some Johnny Walker Black
@@BuildDadBuild How was the white walker by the way?
“.....and that’s how you smoke a cocktail 😜
@@joeylacivita2650 Its a Bit Lite it is not aged it was special for Game of Toothpicks
The reaction of when I do something to do and it looks fantastic. I identified with this guy.
That is awesome!
👍🥃👍🥃👍🥃
*I'm discovering that a bunch of comments that I previously responded to never posted. Sorry about the delay.
I love his enthusiasm, I’ll have to check out your other videos!
Thank you!
Loved this! I'm completely new to wood working, I think my 1st project is going to be making a simple top on my tool box, and guess who has a torch!?
Noice!
*TopFineWoodworking. Com* is a fantastic website about wood working. I took various classes as well as finished a one year diploma in carpentry at a local tech college; this is much better than any book I worked out of during those lessons. It explains everything regarding woodworking as well as complements it with helpful photos.?
Thanks dad, now that its legal in my state, I can totally buy a weed torch.
LOL!
Hey mate, I've been in the 2pac kitchen/timber refinishing/french polishing industry (mostly as a painter) since I was 16 (now 29) Your burning technique is very good, I just wanted to let you know with the burning then sanding like you do its closer to a "Patina" technique than anything else I believe (burn, sand, stain, sand, seal, sand, top coat would be the 100% correct way but your way is fine. Also patina can of course be done no burning just mixing different stains to create an older look. Its also a technique done on some old school hot rods) Either way, I'd just like to say that you do a top notch job! Keep up the good work!
Thank you for the info and the kind words!
@@BuildDadBuild You're welcome!
Patina only aplies to steel in the sense your talking about
@@Thecarverman no it doesn't
Great video!! Thanks for sharing, I’m currently restoring an old table and will definitely be looking into that grey finish!!
Hey JP!
Sounds sweet! Good luck.
Cheers
Love this! Going to be trying some of these myself. Thanks
Awesome! Let me know how they turn out!
Think I'm gonna try this on an old gun stock
Looks amazing
Thank you! Let me know how it turns out...Another sub on this channel was inquiring about how this would look on a gun stuck.
Cheers!🥃🔥🥃🔥
I LOVE your wall!
Just subscribed, so I’m gonna stalk your vids now! Lol
Thanks for the warning. 🤣🤣
I’m not new to burning wood but you took it up a notch 👍🏻👍🏻
Sandblasting is awesome too.
I've heard sandblasting is good!
And Thanks!
👍🥃👍🥃👍🥃
*I'm discovering that a bunch of comments that I previously responded to never posted. Sorry about the delay.
I know this a little older of a video, but it is awesome. I have been waiting for a project to do this with. It wasn't about burning the wood, but more about the finishing steps. Thanks great step by step video.
Sure thing
Cheers!
OMG so gorgeous! And the wood pieces look pretty good too. I'm so inspired! ;-)
Thank you! And...thank you...😂😂
I think I would've gone creme brulee with the third torch, but I'm fat and I like creme brulee. Subbed.
🤣🤣🤣 and thanks for the sub!
I had only seen burned wood table built once and I decided to do it on the siding I am going to do for my new house. Now I have more ideas!
Thank you for the information.
You're welcome! Thanks for watching.
Thank you for the information.
I have seen many videos like this, but this was far the most useful one! Sprinkling between burning to prevent cupping, sanding after the wirebrush for richer color etc etc. Nice job! 🎉😊
Great video! Thanks for the tips, and they look amazing. One question, though. What kind of brush did you use to brush the char off of the planks?
That is a nylon brush (like one you'd clean a bathroom with). In the past I've used a metal brush, but it leaves more tool marks.
Dig it...thanks, I have a lot of pine laying around. Now I can tell my wife I’m going to burn it. She’ll be thrilled.
Awesome! Thank you!!
Thats pretty cool, t strange part is a few weeks ago I found a weed burning torch and the tank on the side of the road now I know what I can use it for. Thanks
Awesome. 👍🏻👍🏻
paul west nah man I'm not buying the I found it at the side of the road excuse there was a guy burning his weeds had to nip in the house for a shit or something meanwhile you come along and steal his property lmfao
Wow! That’s Incredible Beautiful! Thank you for Sharing! Excellent technique for my bench....
Thank you!
Are there any alternative stains you would use to achieve a look comparable to the finish with the simple finish? I really like it, but it seems like an expensive product
Possibly Shellac? I think that would be the closest.
I've never found anything that works like Simple Finish so I think the price tag is totally worth it. For what it's worth a little goes a long way. I used it on my workbench project and used less than a 1/4 of a pint!
Boiled linseed oil?
The best part is the whisky. i loveit.
The best part is always the whiskey! 👍🏻👍🏻🥃🥃
As an amateur with woodworker, I typically feel overpowered with the entire arrangement. Be that as it may, this arrangements drove me through with much clarity and effortlessness [Link Here== *TopFineWoodworking. Com* . I now work like a genius. That is great!?
Found you thanks to this video! I'm going to have to break out my torches now! Got a huge one (like your big one) and a smaller can torch (also like yours)! Great video man! Thanks for putting it up!
Awesome! Thank you.
It's definitely got the 3D kinda look with the old weathered wood look . Its absolutely stunning. Keep the vids coming. I think i feel a new hobby coming on THANKS
Sure thing!
Cheers
So, I got bored of writing my Dungeons and Dragons campaign, so I came to TH-cam and started watching my usual creepy material. I then got a recommendation for this video. I don’t normally click on stray videos that don’t pertain to what I’m currently watching, but lately I’ve been letting things slide. I gotta say, whatever information TH-cam has on me through my cookies on the net that caused them to recommend this to me, thank you. This is some badassery here. You’ve got some sick creative skill sir, and now I want to attempt to do this, too! You’ve got my subscription!
Awesome! Glad I could be of assistance.
And thanks for the sub.
Cheers!
👍🥃👍🥃
As soon as you finished the boards, I said “well I thought he would mention the 3rd torch!” When you came back to talk about it, before you did anything else other than say “oh yeah!” as a avid watcher, I KNEW it had something to do with alcohol. 🤣
Gotta smoke that whiskey!
Cheers
So glad you came up in my suggestions. Very cool.
Thank you!
Love the gray look...and the smoked coctail!
Thank you!
"I dont want HOT SAP on my eye balls". LOL. Very informative and funny channel. Nice work.
Thank you!
I want to see that big sword 🗡 mounted on your wall!! And I’m a new subscriber 👍
That's a scythe I made for last Halloween.
th-cam.com/video/51m38-WYMoA/w-d-xo.html
great video.....really clear, concise, informative, covers alot of ground for the novice like me who appreciates wood building techniques and the culture behind it, good sound and picture qualty makes alot of difference here....had i known about shou sugi ban prior, i might have used this wood preservation technique instead of using steel..........read my next post how to add another wood preservation technique to shou sugi ban treated wood and the wood may last for an extremely extremely long time
Thanks, brother!
Glad you enjoyed it.
Amazing outcomes there! Your videos have helped me a lot, now I would love to see you do a piece out of spruce wood
Thank you!
I have a "field trip" coming up to hit some of the local wood dealers...I'll keep an eye out for Spruce!
Sun bleach stain, huh? Sounds like my next purchase!
It's great stuff!
What brand?
impossible not to picture in my mind Beavis and Butthead. Fire, fire, fire is cool.
I'll allow it. LOL
Cheers!
Thanks for breaking this down so well! Re-upped our TV stand and love it! Added bonus of re-igniting my inner pyro, plus weeds no longer stand a chance!
Sweet! Glad I could help!!
You had me at Shou Sugi Ban! Lol...You gave me more instruction and detail in the first few seconds that some of the show-boating burners and woodworkers have in a 30 min. vid...totally worth my time: Education+Entertainment. Double E Ride! Thx BDB.
Sure thing, Kristy!
Cheers
Let’s talk about your law and order transition sounds 😂
🤣
YES!! If I didn't see this comment I was gonna make it 🤣
very cool! I'm planning on building a shadow box for my wife and now I know how what i'll make it out of. Thank you
Awesome! Let me know how it turns out.
I really like those last two. I'm about to start on an accent wall in my living room and either of those last two finishes would look awesome.
Sweet!
Good luck
Cheers!
1:38 When the police ask about your dab torch
🤣
Great info. I love the gray. I am now inspired to stain my kitchen island that color with the burnt wood
Awesome!
Cheers
Pretty cool man! Thanks for sharing
You're welcome!
Thanks for the video I needed a turtorial just like this for a project coming up!
Awesome!
Cheers
I got it!!!
Now it worked perfectly!!
I got the sunbleach stain (took a month 😆😆) and I applied it on a burned wood just as you showed us. Really amazing results!!!
Thank you so much Nick!!
Awesome! Great to hear!! Send me a pic at: nick@builddadbuild.com
Build Dad Build I sent you. Hope it looks clear and not twisted.
renepulido96 to my opinion it depends in the thickness of the wood. The thicker the wood the deeper you burn
I subscribed because you ask so nicely in a non-commercial way...thanks!
Thank you!
I dig the video, bro! I think i just found the finish to my pallet furniture! 1 Texan to another, thanks bud!
Absolutely! Glad to help!!🥃🥃🥃
Excellent video. And thanks so much for the brief safety tips. That is sorely lacking in a lot of DIY videos. It's all fun n games till you burn the garage down.
Yeah. I get a little worried that folks don't see the precautions I go to. In my older videos I was always trying to keep the safety equipment out for "the shot"...but the dad in me is like "you gotta leave that in"! 👍🏻👍🏻
And thanks for the kind words. 🥃👍🏻🥃👍🏻
I am totally doing this for my flooring this summer. Dude, Thank you for sharing this method!
Subscribed indeed.
+LibertyHand thank you!
I had to try it out so I just did one side of a board of approximate size and got "cupping"(?) I had a different experience brushing but the appearance is the same. Thank you for the knowledge sir.
You’re welcome! Hard to completely stop cupping, but try to keep the wood damp. It helps!
Also (depending on the project) if you can put supports across the back you can keep the surface flatter.
Dude... you give EXCELLENT info! Most videos from others don’t give the little details you do... and the light humor..👍
Glad you dug the video!
Cheers
You said subscribe, so I did! I have done 2 burn projects, a door and a desk. Both with a small torch like yours. They turned out well, I just used poly for a finish. I've never thought of more of a finish. Cool video!
Thank you!
Just getting Into workworking at 38. This was really helpful
So sick! I built a bar out of pallets and a sheet of plywood and I'm definitely doing this to the bar top!
Sounds awesome!
Cheers
My dude and fellow dad, great vid! I burn and poly for my projects. You just upped my game.
Also, I own a coffee shop and was just planning out smoked old fashions. Glad to see you rocking that too!
Smoked cocktails rock!
I watched a video where a dude smoked lemons and then used the juice to make a whiskey sour. I'm sooooo trying that!
@@BuildDadBuild holy crap, ya that sounds epic, I'm DEFINITELY going to be looking that up and trying it!
Here it is: th-cam.com/video/Y_LoSB2YSmU/w-d-xo.html
I thought my Videos were goofy!!!! This guy is my competitor now Hahahha.
I just found this channel and you got me as a subscriber. Great stuff. I've used a wire welding brush too with some very awesome effects.
Thanks!
Fantastic video! Loved it, will definitely be giving this a go. Cheers
David Sweney glad you dig it. Cheers! 👍🏻👍🏻🥃
I used this method and used the grey stain for a birdhouse I made - it turned out fantastic!!
Very cool!
Love your video! I just started burning last week.
+Poopy Trooper nice. It gets quite addicting. 👍🏻👍🏻🔥🔥
Love your program brother.....! My wife are utilizing your method on our pergula.....I'm an old Santa Cruz cali surfer, so utilizing your method gets to the core of my belief system!
Thanks, Nick!
That is awesome!
What are you building it out of? Cedar? Let me know how it turns out.
Cheers
I know I’m late to the party and I know the technique started in Japan, but man you are a genius! It’s jaw dropping how beautiful the wood looks. I’m obsessed. Thanks for turning me on to this.
Thanks homie!
Great video, editing, no filler, to the point, subscribed!
Awesome, thank you!
Welcome to the Fray!

Muchísimas gracias ,tu técnica me ha sido excelente para mi ,es ideal para mi mesa de estilo industrial ,de nuevo muchísimas gracias desde Europa -España 😘😘😘😘
Thank you very much, your technique has been super to me, it is ideal for industrial style table, again many thanks from Europe -Spain 😘😘😘
Thank you!
Bad ass man! Love your technique, I do a lot of wood work, mostly coastal art (sea birds, redfish etc.) definitely want to try this with some of my art so thanks brother!
Awesome. Thank you.
Looks great. I digged your video. I used boiled linseed oil on my last burn project. Came out great. I think I need a weed torch now.
+TINGSTARR thank you. And that torch is awesome!
Loved this thankx from NZ- sweet short and to the point.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Cheers!
Fantastic!! The burnishing look is very cool.i do it the hard way by compressing the wood fibers...well i used to..good job.
Thank you! Cheers!
Some cheap large towels or small blanket from the thrift store soaking in a 5 gallon bucket close by will put out a fire pretty quick also .. without having to soak the wood so much .for when you want to restart... I am really learning a lot from your videos.. thank you for putting the channel together and sharing..
Thanks for coming along for the ride. And thanks for the info!
Cheers!
👍🥃👍🥃
Freaking awesome awesome video!!! I’m going to try this! Thanks for sharing!!

Dude. Amazing stuff. Will start trying this method soon.
Awesome! Let me know how it turns out.
I’ve done a lot of Shou Sugi Ban have experimented many times and have gotten good results especially with Pallet wood I’ll have to try some of the stain you use that you can only get on line.
Cheers!
Awesome video. Dude you made my day with this video. Love the info, love the attitude, love the presentation, love your work. I just learned how to customise my expensive knife wood handle :)
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
