sure but you need a bigger container, maybe metal cooking pan). The vacuum doesn't crack the wood, its sucks out air and moisture. Let's say - water boils at 100 degrees Celsius. In mountains where the pressure is lower, it boils and evaporates at a lower temperature may be 90, but depends how high you are. With deep vacuum, with even negative pressure it should boil and evaporate at room temperature
@@michaeldiy1510 well, that's all clear, I'm a refrigeration engineer so I know quite a bit about p-t charts and relations and all that, maybe it's my English... My question was, if I would submerge a wood slice in linseed oil, then pulled it to vacuum, then obviously (or hopefully) the water would be replaced by linseed oil in the wood slice. So after, if I would leave it outside for drying, would I end up with a nice wood slice or would it crack apart like if it was normally dried out? I'm trying to figure if those expensive wood stabilisers could be replaced with something for this purpose...
@@lombragoo try to reserch about cactus juise or something like that. Its polymeryzer used to make wood like plastic. You use that insted of lindseed oil. And after bake it in oven. There is video with that product, one guy stabilizing blanks for knives. You can try to have fun with one piese and see what happend, even with lindseed oil
@@michaeldiy1510 Notice all the questions you have been asked? Might be an idea instead of just making shit content that you address those things IN THE VIDEO.
He's a brainlet and doesn't know what he's doing. Yes it's boiled. Any liquid in a vacuum's boiling temp will approach zero. So the room temp would have brought it to boiling point if he sucked the vac hard enough. Thinning it is pointless unless you let it evap off STILL in situ within the body of the oil (so the thinner will evaporate out of the wood sucking more linseed oil into the wood over time) so it really depends on how long you have to work. Also flaxseed has some amazing unexplored properties when you wet a kilo of the stuff to germinate / grow it, let it soak for 24 hours, then collect that water. It's almost like a hard resin when you soak wood in it. I've been able to turn a piece of tissue into a sharpenable blade by soaking it in it. Linseed oil isn't the only use for flax. Experiment, see what you come up with.
Omg that is what I been thinking and searching on the TH-cam 😂😂😂😂
so what was the result? was it awful, and that's why you're not showing it?
How's the handle doing today? Did it age well?
Nice idea
Vey intersting. If I did this on a wood slice (wood cookie) or whatever they called, would it crack?

i liked the video thanks
How did it go with the handle? Did it dry up nice? How is it now?
The handle got polymerized, right now its water resistant and surface is very hard similar to the plastic

Can I dry it in the oven , 1 week is too long 😫
is it raw or boiled linseed oil? would you thin the oil with turpentine ? nice idea
I don't remember. I didnt thined it

How did you dry it?
It dry out itself. It got polymerised. Reserch about that proces
MICHAEL DIY where did you research it?
MICHAEL DIY how long did it take to dry?
@@deaconfrost1044
I don't remember exactly how long. Maybe around one week
Linseed oil is a drying oil, meaning it can polymerize into a solid form
