Woodturning - You Won't Believe What You Can Do With Firewood!
I wanted to try this finishing technique, so I found a piece of firewood that looked like it would have some interesting grain and got turning. Unfortunately the grain wasn't as nice as I thought it would be and as it was my first time trying this finish the gold didn't standout as much as I wanted it to.
Still, I am really pleased with the results as it reminds me of a worn draught pump handle, especially because of the small exposed ring of wood at the top. Weirdly this is one of those pieces I really love because of its imperfections.... even the natural crack in the Ash that took in some of the gold, and the two larger cracks at the bottom, it all adds to the character of the piece.
I will be trying this finish again soon, hopefully with a bolder result.
Let me know what you think 😁

Yes, I'm aware that wearing gloves while woodturning is considered an unsafe practise. The gloves I wear are tight fitting and don’t have any loose threads. I wear them for the protection of my skin. This is a risk that I am willing to take, however I am still very conscious of the potential danger and I do not touch any spinning parts of the lathe. DO NOT do anything you don’t feel comfortable doing.
