List of action items: When deciding between oil-based stains and finishes and water-based stains and finishes, you must consider many factors. Choosing the right stain or finish for your woodworking project is crucial for achieving the desired aesthetic and ensuring long-lasting durability. Two popular options are water-based and oil-based stains and finishes.

People underestimate how much work can go into something that looks so simple when it's complete. Getting this angle correct was incredibly difficult since the stairs were constructed many years ago and it seems like our was done in a rush. Every step was a different height and a different depth, some tiles were hollow underneath them so when we drilled for the new, modern balustrades, they threatened to break. Seeing the finished product, though, too could never tell there were issues. That's how we roll 😉😁 #silkentrapinteriors #balustrade #wroughtiron #cladding #blackcladding #foyer #entrance #foyerdesign #interiordesign #interiordecorators #manufacturer #metal #handrail #modernbalustrade #custommade #custommadeBalustrade

How's your French? Brian explains chatoyance. I have explained the challenge of chatoyance to clients and employees for years. Chatoyance (French) refers to how light reflects in a cat’s eye or other materials that can reflect light differently depending on their fiber orientation. Most figured woods’ grain changes direction in interesting patterns like the waves of curly maple, the hills and valleys of Pomele Sepele, or the feather-like patterns of the Walnut crotch figure. All of these woods tend to have a lovely 3-D effect because of how the light seems to move under the finish as we walk around the piece. The artistry of arranging this material in our surface designs challenges decision-making that some apply rules to. Slip-matching veneers keeps the light reflection in sync from one veneer or solid board to another. Book matching gives the grain patterns priority over light reflection. Great wood matching in furniture requires understanding these challenges and how to read grain direction in the lumber you select for a project. #brianboggs #brianboggsdesign #boggsbench #chairmaker #woodenfurniture #customfurniture #woodartalliance #craftsmen #workshop #woodworker #woodworking #asheville #woodworkingtips #veneers #finewoodworking #popularwoodworking #woodworkingcommunity #woodworker #workshops #craftsmanship #woodlovers #handplanes #honduranmahogany #sunburst #engineering #madebyhand #lazysusan

But what are the key points for this type of processing❓ 𝐂𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐬𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐩𝐚𝐩𝐞𝐫: sandpaper is available in various grits. Choose the paper-backed one for manual work and the cloth-backed one for machine sanding. 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐰𝐨 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐩𝐬: roughing to remove irregularities and sanding with sandpaper or electric sanders to achieve a uniform surface. 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬: It prepares the wood for varnishing and promotes the absorption of protective agents, as well as removing traces of previous work. Although sanding requires patience, the result is very #satisfying. It enhances the natural grain of the wood, highlighting its intrinsic #beauty Within VenetianMade you can find many wooden #products and discover what lies behind each artistic #artefact #woodworking #woodcrafts #woodart #sandingprocess #woodsurface #woodfinishing #handcraftedwood #woodartisans #woodenproducts #wooddesign #woodworkingtools #DIYwoodworking #woodworkingtips #woodworkskills #craftsmanship #woodgrain #woodenfurniture #artisticwoodwork #artisanproducts #woodendecor #VenetianMade #artisanalartifacts

Marquetry is the use of small pieces of coloured veneer and other materials to create decorative patterns and pictures. Are marquetry and parquetry the same? There are many similarities but parquetry uses thicker pieces of material and is more usually used for flooring than furniture. How is marquetry made? Traditionally the pattern was cut out using a fret saw and traditional edge tools, but with the advent of new technology it is now more commonly made using a laser.
