I was bored the other day while turnig so got the idea to try amke a piece of spalted maple more interesting so I drill some holes in a blank and poured food coloring in it,,,You are going to laugh hard...All it did was when I turned the lathe on after 1 hour of sitting is throw blue food coloring all over me... the wall...and the ceiling....my wife laughted so hard she fell to her needs and said I looked like a smurf...It took me 3 days to get it off my face and hands,,,,lol:rotflm: So afetr thinking a little longer scrubbing blue of me I git the ide to stand a piece end grain up in a bucket with a little red FC and water.....Guys this turned out crazy...This thing has red and black spalted lines runing all through it...
So my question is has anyone ever heard of this..have you ever tried it? Or how do you spalt woods or add features to it when it is just a little to plain?
