Awadon Posted December 4, 2013 Author Share Posted December 4, 2013 Effects of grinding. By the way, "I patented" a new grinding wheel for polishing and longitudinal grinding machine for this job To be honest I've enough working in a dust mask for x hours a day. And now biiig request for help. Color effect that I wanted to achieve - that is smoked oak, does not go as I would have liked to. So I did some wood samples. Speak up on them. 1 - Oak waxed dark. 2 - Oak stained and waxed white 3 - Oak waxed white 4 - Oak stained white. 5 - Oak stained white and waxed dark.

Awadon Posted December 5, 2013 Author Share Posted December 5, 2013 I'm still making some tests. I will show it, when it will be ready. And waxed oak on the bigger plane looks like this. The sample shows it really badly. I know All the time, however, I would like to "lixiviate" surface. We'll see. PS. I look forward also to any other suggestions. Even the pictures. Maybe I can duplicate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awadon Posted December 8, 2013 Author Share Posted December 8, 2013 how about something like oregon pine? I think it would look a little to yellow. This is how whitening with Perhydrol looks like - concentrated hydrogen peroxide. before and after But I do not I avoid staining. The effect is good. But not sufficiently uniform.

Awadon Posted July 29, 2014 Author Share Posted July 29, 2014 After a long break, a few new pictures. This is the final version. Surface waxed and oiled. Break was caused by the onslaught of work. Then I had lot of problems with bleached surface. In short, I had to clean and sand again everything once again. I was hoping to finish before end of "coolermaster mod contest" but I certainly do not have time to do this. Now I will work faster. I hope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
