    In Japan it’s called Yaki Sugi the Americanized name for it is shu sugi ban. I use my own variation of this technique in my art.

      @@104Woodworks I came up with my variation of this technique. I found a way to exaggerate the texture and add color while retaining the dramatic black grain. I enjoyed your video and wish you all the success. Keep minecrafting in real life.

    Japanese method. As old as the hills.

      Indeed!
      I've heard about structures lasting hundreds of years perfectly preserved with little to no degrading, correct me if I'm wrong 😎👌

      @TheBestofBothWorlds28 Originally, it was known as "Yakisugi," but now it is known "Shou Sugi Ban." You still have to seal it with oil, though. It improves longevity and appearance. For outside use, it's still advisable to seal it, too. It can last for centuries treated with oil and sealant. Eighty to a hundred years untreated.

      @eastafrica1020 80-100 untreated! Wow! Thanks for the information 🙂👌 it's very fascinating stuff! And for sure I'm going to seal it too 👍👍

    From my limited knowledge into all the different trades, don't get me wrong I see what you're saying at the same time do you really want every single construction company out there walking around with this kind of firepower? Come on we can barely get good enough houses as it is 😆 but thank you for the education I did not know that

      Absolutely not, let's be real they wouldn't adopt it anyways, I want DIYers to take advantage of these techniques and maybe apply it to their own projects 🙂 safety first ofcourse 😉 or just watch and enjoy thats an option too haha 🖤
      Also this technique works best on dry wood 🪵 👌 I was using green wood because I was in a crunch for time, so I'll have to back over certain areas this later on this year now that it's had lots of time to dry 😀

    I wonder why they dont use this process when building homes.

      I wonder the same thing my friend, I also use this technique when putting fence posts in the ground, and one thing I forgot to mention in the clip was that it also helps to protect against wood destroying insects.
      Also it makes the wood resistant to UV rays so it's helps to protect the wood from getting weathered or fading quickly.

      It takes time, they don’t care about quality these days.

      @@JitsKamps got that right, it's all about quantity over quality nowadays, but there are good builders out there that care about there work and the quality of it, and this is one of many options out there for wood sealant/protectant and I'm not kicking any of the others, but Charring the wood is definitely one of my favorites

      It creates soot, so it detracts from its appeal. You can however brush and oil it before using inside to stop the soot.
