Daikokubashira burnt oak post 2

When wet the post looks very black but as it dries it fades down to a matt finish.







As you can see the grain gets exposed similar to sand blasting the timber. I think this efefct is very successful - it is what I was trying to achieve. The next step is top try and avoid it going very black again when it has a oil or varnish finish.
