Lost how to get into the blog, but stumbled on to it again. Hopefully, I can find my way back many more times.
Am back in to doing wood work again, Bought a 1915 Sherwood Springs Coaster Wagon, ( a kids wagon) It is intact, all orginal except for the handle. Made a handle for it, but the wagon is well aged, and the handle is "new wood". Talked to a few people on how to age the wood. Got four or five different ways, but the one that triggered me was the TEA, VINEGAR and STEELWOOL technique.
I tried it, and it was/is amazing, overnight my wagon handle looks almost as old as the wagon itself. A little more treatment, and it will be ready to try to attach.
Anyone else ever used this method to age wood?
