I used this method for a custom mantel for a full townhome remodel project a couple years ago, and it turned out perfect. The great thing with rustic is that it's pretty hard to mess up.
Thank you! I have a beautiful original (I assume) beam in my Victorian cottage... and right next to it a new beam that someone has clearly tried to make look old by taking some kind of chopping tool to it. It's so obvious someone's done that on purpose and I hate it! I'll try some of your methods on the surface of the beam :)
nice to have that option. but old barnwood posts/beams are scarce here because people have been buying them and scavenging them for years in the US since they have been popular for a while now.
And the angle grinder...and the electric saw...and electric sander....and the electric planer...and the nail tool....😂😂😂 If you have 10k's worth of power tools, you can do this too 😂😂😂
Don't forget if you REALLY want to go shit stain hand worn, use a wax ring from a toilet kit and heat gun it in to the wood. THAT is the best replication of hand oils I've ever used. Don't believe? try it!
1. All hewing his hand hewing; there is no such think as machine hewing. 2. Your end result might look old and weathered, but it does not look hewn. 3. "...chopping with a chisel..."? Chisels are not used in hewing. 4. "...that right-out-of-the-sawmill look..."? I thought you were talking about simulating hewing.
@@dloc831 Whew! OK, now I'm relaxed. But I do think presenters should think more about what they're saying. Otherwise, they undermine their own credibility, even if their ideas are basically sound.

Hey- nice work. Marital makes a barrel wire brush tool- both with wire and nylon. It’s the best for softening out the soft grain
I used a claw hammer, a piece of wood with nails through it, an old chisel, sandpaper, and stain. Just the job.
what stain is this? oil based?
So much work... Here in Latvia I could just take some boards from so many old houses dismantled. Already old...

Ok, step 1. Make sure your health insurance is up to date.
