    I've got tons of respect for how you guys keep setbacks in your videos to show beginner woodworkers that it's okay to have flaws in your work and that you can fix them. My grandfather, who was a carpenter and woodworker, used to say that the skill of a craftsman can be measured by how well he can fix problems, and you guys would definitely have earned his respect.

  • @NotARealDuck
    @NotARealDuck Před 11 měsíci +54

    With oak you can blacken it by soaking a wad of steel wool in vinegar in a sealed jar overnight and then painting that vinegar onto the wood. It soaks in deep and has been used for hundreds of years to "ebonize" oak.

      I went to a rubio instructional day to see its functionality on furniture and feel its only really for floors.

A traditional stain and clear matt lacquer has never failed me so that's the way I'll be sticking to in future
