I think Stage 5 is ready for blast off.
I like the look too Gary. I was pleased to see the finger joints held up as good as they did with a deep burn.
Doesn't stage 3 with the black char on the surface rub off on everything it touches?, including people?
Otherwise, pretty neat wood treatment.

it's a stage 5 for me also rick.
working with my hands is a joy,it gives me a sense of fulfillment,somthing so many seek and so few find.-SAM MALOOF.
Rick, nice job here. The pics do tell more than a thousand words can get across, it's illuminating to see the stages. Best burn post yet.

Yes Oldtool... it will. Several spray coats of lacquer will go a long way to mitigate it.
Yeah Pottz! Hard to beat stage 5!
Box joints are a great way to avoid any thin areas. Also adds to the rustic look!

Thank you so much for your kindness GeorgeWest! Often I'm not sure how much detail I should do because I fear the reader may fade away.

That's what I was thinking. IMO it seems to hold up better against any gapping when burning. I like the look too!
Good test! The thickness appears to have helped reduce retraction during the burn. 👍🏼
Ryan/// ~sigh~ I blew up another bowl. Moke told me "I made the inside bigger than the outside".
Love the series of stages. The end grain with the texture is awesome in stage 5. I think a repeat of stage 4 and 5 would leave it even better.
I draw my bravery from Bob Ross. He would always get to a point where it would look great, then he'd go farther and I would think he ruined in, then he would go even farther and make it look amazing.

I am not likely to try this technique but I am very impressed with the effort to post an excellent description of the technique. What a great post !!!

Thanks. It actually did help. Much more difficult to do a heavy burn with miters.
Thanks Swirt!
