FUMING TENT CONSTRUCTION
This fuming tent design provides the best of all worlds: easy to assemble, easy to break down and, since it is composed of flat panels, it stores reasonably well. When I made my first one, I dutifully screwed the whole thing together and placed duct tape across all edges. I soon realized that was overkill and found that solid clamping sealed the fuming tent sufficiently.

HOW TO SAFELY FUME YOUR FURNITURE
When one looks at Craftsman style furniture, several features stand out. First is the solid heaviness of the design—this is not furniture you casually slide across the room. Second is the cut of the wood: it’s often quarter sawn white oak and as such, the beautiful rays crossing the grain stand out with each piece as unique as a snowflake. Lastly is the wood’s color; a beautiful, deep, honey-brown tone.

ANTI-DUST FINISHING TIP
Most woodworkers have some airborne dust and particulates floating in their shop, and some of those particles can settle on a not-quite-dried finish. George Vondriska demonstrates a neat and inexpensive trick for protecting small woodworking projects from dust when finishing. A WoodWorkers Guild of America (WWGOA) original video.

USING MINERAL SPIRITS TO SHOW WOOD GRAIN
It’s a magic moment…when finish hits your project for the first time and the grain starts to pop, glow, show you just what you’re going to get, it’s soooo cool. Here’s the problem. As you build your project or, even more importantly, as you select your material, you may have a hard time knowing how things are going to look when you get to that magic moment. What will that bees wing walnut or quilted maple or quarter sawn white oak look like when you apply finish?

TORCHING WOOD
Everything old becomes new again! For instance, using a propane torch to char the surface of a piece of wood, changing its color. Torching wood is something that has been around for a really long time. It’s an interesting way to change a wood’s color without using stain or dye.
