  • Just a quick video explaining my method for eliminating end grain tear out, when it seems nothing else is working. Sharp tools, higher speed, etc. This does take some time, patience, and sandpaper, but it does work, and is very effective at removing tear out! To be honest I found out this little hack by accident!

      Just make sure to sand until there’s nothing but dust coming off!

    How does the wax affect your choice of finish?

    • @Brads-Woodshed
      @Brads-Woodshed  Před 4 měsíci +1

      Generally this wax is my finish, but if I were to use a different type, as long as it’s all sanded out and maybe wiped with denatured alcohol, then no issues!

    if this works (will try) then this is worth ten thumbs and two subscribes.

      I found it out by accident! I’d thought all my tear out was gone, added wax then realized it wasn’t, started sanding again and worked like a charm!

    Good idea, but curious why after you added the wax polish to soften the fibers you just didn’t go over it with a sheer cut.

      Honestly never thought of going across the wax with a tool. I suppose I just didn’t wanna dirty up the tool!

      @@Brads-Woodshed It would be much faster and you can easily wipe the wax off. I have some diy wax polishing compound and I will try it out.

      @@Brads-Woodshed well like all good projects where you think, “just one more pass and it will be better”, I got a catch and the Cherry bowl broke in half and broke off the tenon. Up to that point though I couldn’t tell much improvement, possibly with sand paper it would have been OK, but it was out of round and would have taken a lot of hand sanding. I’ll try again. Usually with tear out though I like to stiffen the fibers with shellac and that seems to be most effective for me.

      @@trurex007lee7 ouch on the bowl! Hey whatever works on the end grain. As I said I actually found this out by accident kinda. I was waxing one I thought I had all the tear out gone and time for polish, but when I added the wax and looked under a light I could still see it, so I started to sand and it worked out! I’ve been using it ever since if nothing else seems to work

    could you not simply use a base like shellac , then use any finish....

    • @Brads-Woodshed
      @Brads-Woodshed  Před 8 dny

      You could! This is just a version that I found that works great for me!
