Just some oldredwood fence post wood
1 Attachment(s)
Okay these are my test run,. I found this wood on my brother-n-laws property. They were under some trees and had been fence post from the ranch. This is first generation redwood that was rough huned probably a 100 years again. I took only one post and brought it home and cut her down. The red was almost a burgundy and the smell was like no redwood I have ever seen.
Better yet the grain was the tightest redwood grain I had ever seen. The plugs carved great and after 3, yes three coats of clear coat epoxy this is what they came out as. I am thinking one more coat of clear coat as the first two coats were absorbed right into the wood! anyway let me know what you think. |
