    Why stain good wood?

    Just a hypothetical question for all of you folks. I'm a big fan of not staining wood, preferring to let the natural appearance of the color/grain/figure be the showcase, but sometimes you want to stain it in order to accent those characteristics. Here's an example. A piece of fir from a...

    Hello I have not posted for a while but had a question. I have access to some black walnut trees I have been gathering to crack this winter. I was wondering if anyone had any use for the hulls to make stain. Any thoughts or inquiries are welcome.

    Applying oil-based stain

    I'm getting to the finishing part of my project and could use some input. The project is a writing table made from QSWO. The finish is going to be Varathane Early American (see here). So, two questions: Is there an advantage to wiping on vs. brushing on? I read the label and it says either...

    darkening stain

    I've got a small can of Minwax's Dark Walnut, staining red oak. After two coats, it's still not as dark as we want it. What can I mix with it to darken it a little more. It's oil based stain.

    Dilemma: Finishing over Gel Stain

    Here's my problem: Sanded SPF trestle table to 120 grit and applied 2 coats of GF gel stain followed by 2 coats of Waterlox. Well, it still feels like about 120 grit. Fortunately, I haven't committed to the table top itself except for the initial 2 coats of gel stain. I'm now reading that gel...

    ink as a wood stain

    My wife does scrapbooking and she recently got a little spray bottle of "walnut ink" that is darker than she had hoped so she gave it to me in case I could use it. Then she showed me that she has a few others that I might try because she rarely uses them fast enough to keep them from drying out...

    HELP!! - Spots on stain

    Can anyone offer ideas as to what these are and how can they be fixed or better yet, how can I assure I don't have them on the rest of this chair? These are the seat slats for the Morris chair I'm working on and you can see spots on it. Being it'll be covered with a cushion, it's not too bad...

    stain or glue first

    I have a question for all you wood guru's. I'm building some baby cribs and including all the slats, there are a bunch of separate peices that go together. Should I glue up the larger sections first then stain and finish them or should I stain the individual peices, then glue them up? What do...

    Rust for stain

    Has anyone here used (purposefully) rust as a stain? Ive done some searching and only come up with a few very brief comments about it. I noticed it in my kitchen floor as i was refinishing it, that the face nailed boards had beautiful dark streaks that seemed to follow the grain like a...
