Beautiful evergreen, maybe I'll do sparkle angel and a smidge of sparkle on tree. Even I can do this. Thanks for aging tip, Skylar. God bless.

Seen your video on Steve Goods blog today. Great tip on aging cherry, I am going to cut out the tree and try it. Will be watching your videos.

Really nice and good as a gift. I think it might be even better to use 1/2 inch thick wood and different species like (classical) cherry, walnut, maple and maybe some padauk.

Good idea! I wonder if that dye and water combination would work on other types of wood. I know Pine blotches with stain but this make work better.

Love the projects you show and the way you explain them. The thing you do with the Lye mixture will it work with other woods such as pine or popular

nice dimensioning look for your tree, I liked the base shade better than the top,(shows more grain). That would look good on a slow spinning spindel showing off 360! I'm still peeking at that router cart and hoping that laser's laptop is secured a little to that workstation worries me sitting on the edge in your busy shop! I don't know how you get done I can't wait to retire as I can't get through my inbox much work in my shop. I always seemed to give things away before appliying finish, you are inspiration!

You can use the boiled linseed oil on outdoor projects. I use it to preserve the floor boards on my utility trailer.

@billparrish4385 11 ай бұрын

Oils like linseed oil (both raw and boiled) and even tung oil, can be a fire hazard, causing spontaneous combustion within any rags left in a pile, so care must be used with these rags when cleaning up after. These oils dry not by evaporation like paint, but by oxidation, the same process involved in fire. Furniture or wood projects do not combust because their oil is oxidizing in open air. But a rag that's wadded, crunched up or folded just right, can act as an insulator and allow the heat generated from the oil's oxidation to reach BLO's flashpoint of 163C/326F, igniting the rag material. Sometimes a rag can smolder for hours until open flame appears, and this process can speed up when temperatures are higher, such as near a stove, on a hot day, or in the sun. One way to safely dispose of oily rags is to spread them out on concrete or outside, away from anything that can burn, until they dry before discarding. Any rags that are kept for future re-use should first be dried, then stored in a metal can or other fireproof container, and kept away from structures or anything that can burn.

Try mixing the boiled Linseed oil with Naptha or paint thinner 50/50. I’ve had lots better results with it mixed.

@dennishall9260 11 ай бұрын

Great little project and just in time for the holidays! I just recently found your channel and have been enjoying your content. I've never used the lye ageing technique. Does this work as well on other species of wood?

@woodworkingwithSkyler 11 ай бұрын

Welcome aboard! Yes, but I didn’t like the results. Only on cherry

@ericklassen742 11 ай бұрын

I believe the angel would turn out more to your liking if you smooth-finished it with shellac or varnish and then 600 grit sandpaper and then simply applied the gold leaf without glue. It will stick just like it does on the glass front door at your local bank. I think this will be a project that I do with my two little Granddaughters. Thank you so-o much.

I don't like the smell of Boiled Linseed Oil either, I used up what I had and never bought it again. A lot of people like it for Axes, Shovels and other Tool Handles but I prefer plain old Mineral Oil.
