I started tinkering in woodworking in a middle school shop class. But didn't fully grasp everything but enjoyed the experience. A couple decades later, I am looking to get my hands on woodworking again. Naturally I have many questions. This really helps. Because I wasn't even sure the difference in the "finishes", how to apply them, and if you could use multiple finishes to get a really nice look and durability. I am looking to start small, get a hang of woodworking on smaller project like shelves or small tables or small boxes before I get to one of my ultimate goals of working with epoxy resin to do resin river tables. I definitely subscribed. I will be watching this more an more.

I struggle with the actual definition of "varnish"... I always understood it as generic and broad definition for a topcoat, like Polyurethane is one type of varnish and most varnishes are pretty much poly or variations of it... If not the case, not clear what a varnish is.

A really useful video. As someone who makes furniture from pallet wood I find that Van Dyke crystals make a really good stain which is infinitely changeable based upon the dilution rate with water. Denibbing after with steel wool then using a couple of coats of dilute varnish then wax produces a really nice finish if applying the wax with 0000 steel wool. Almost idiot proof (useful for me!).

I dont make may things , but when i do i use the method i learned from you when you did your older table. Danish oil with wax over it. Never fails me . Sure its not has hard wearing as varnish , but its good enough for me and i love the feel of it. Never did like the feel of varnish. I sometimes sand the oil in , this can fill in any tiny scratches on the surface of the wood and makes it feel amazing! But you have given me an idea! Danish oil mixed with brixwax !!!!

What finish would be best for a desktop that comes in contact with skin (forearms) for extended periods of time? My current desk has a very hard, white, paint-like finish.. This sticks to the skin on warm days and can be very uncomfortable. What kind of finish might be breathable and not irritate skin? I plan to stain before finishing. I am not really concerned about toughness of the finish.

I obviously didn't sand it enough prior and would like to use acetone to remove the oil before i go back to the sander and start again. Would acetone do the trick and break the linseed oil down so i can wipe it off?

Great video and channel. So happy I found you. I am currently building a new kitchen with my woodworker-friend, and we are looking for the right finishes for my kitchen counter. It's plywood of the type "far eastern", and it has slightly red tint. Therefore we've applied black powdered stain mixed in water to make the counter look solid black, while still keeping the wood texture visible. Now we're looking for the right finish to seal the stain, and we're keen on using danish oil or tonkin lacquer, but we are not sure if we'll be able to mix the water based stain (even though it's completely dried out) with oil based finishes. We also are not sure if they are food safe, and if they will seal the stain properly. Do you have any suggestions for us?

Great stuff, Keith!I've just been experimenting with dye... A wee cabinet with figured Ash doors. Decided to dye some Meranti (I think) for the frame and used some ebony spirit dye and put on two coats of Osmo. It's a brilliant finish! Has a real feel of Ebony - cool to the touch and very smooth, if you see what I mean. I've used Osmo before. It is expensive but a little goes a very long way and it is a fantastic finish.Onwards and upwards! and have a great weekend!

Hi, thanks for your video. I’m trying to re purpose a shelving system to use out doors in my backyard. Besides paint, I’m using vinyl wallpaper, for the sides and back of the shelving system. The wood is some sort particle board. What should I use to seal it, and protect it from the Florida sun and rain? Will sealers adhere to the vinyl? Should I use a water based polyurethane first over the paint to seal the wood, and then apply the vinyl wallpaper? Will the wallpaper stick to the sealer? I also would rather have a matte finish, but don’t even know if any of this is possible. This is my first project.....so I am a bit lost. Any help would be appreciated.

Brilliant and informative video Keith, I have recently completed a small project that I wish I had taken the time to record on my phone as I'm looking forwards to creating You tube content. The project was made from recycled wood and i discovered upon adding boiled linseed oil that the wood although sourced from the same derelict Jack and Jill seat was infact two very different types of wood one of I think for this content is beech and the other i'm unsure of the result being that when I added the boiled Linseed oil the wood I now suspect is Beech took on the same sheen and wood grain as the beech in your video whilst the other was totally different and held no bright sheen at all obviously had I know it was two very different types of wood i would if like the manufacturer of it as Jack and Jill chair would of given it a painted coat of wood colouring and varnish

Not used the Osmosis yet, but keen to give it a go on a project soon. They are expensive in comparison to other finishes, but what I would say is they do go along way (same 750ml pot did 2 coats on a door and my window ledge project).

I've recently found a nice piece of what i think is dead standing cherry which i've turned into a mug shape. The wood is bordering on punky but its got lovely spalted effect running through it. I've stained it with a strong coffee mix and when it dries i'd like to apply some sort of finish that will protect it but not ruin the natural pitted feel. Any suggestions on what i should use? thanks

Would boiled linseed deepen the colour? Also it will be getting a lot of footfall. Did you try any of the hard wax oils? There are so many choices to choose from. I would like the end result to be hard wearing, with a matt or satin finish, warm and golden. Sorry for all the questions. I'm decorating my hall next week, so need to decide on a product asap.

Any oil will darken and change the colour of the wood, there’s not much difference between how different oils look in my experience. If you want to retain the natural look I would go with clear wax like Briwax or water based varnish or polyurethane

The everbuild varnish that you use is the same stuff I have. But is it actually a varnish or a polyurethane? It's water based so isn't technically a varnish? I only ask as I often get confused with finishing terms, and was drawn to this video after buying a water based 'lacquer' for use to seal chalk paint! (Which in my mind is a poly???!) Anyway, love your videos and in particular your use of recycled/repurposed materials. Keep up the great work!

I don’t know but to be honest I don’t think it matters, they’re both really hardwearing! I don’t think polyurethane is easy to come by in the UK for some reason but maybe you’re right and they just call it varnish

Very helpful, thanks! Do you have any experience combining dye and wax in terms of colour? Nearly finished a reclaimed pine bench but want it to fit my living room so needs to be a medium/dark oak tone. Don’t know whether to try and do half the colour “work” with dye and half with Briwax, or to try and get it dyed just right and use a lighter/neutral wax, or if it’ll need dark versions of both!

Thank you for your video!! What oil would you recommend for a speaker made with birch plywood? I want to darken the color a bit.

Hi. I can't find dark walnut quality internal doors so I came up with idea to buy oak veneer doors and change color to dark. Is it good idea? Possible? I wish to have dark chocolate colour of doors and I don't know what to use. What would you recommend? Can you help?
