If you enjoy seeing hand-crafted vintage poster restorations, check out PosterFix's YT channel. Their latest video is restoring a scarce 1939 "Son of Frankenstein" movie poster with the top part missing. The missing part was meticulously hand-painted and blends in perfectly with the original. A must see for design aficionados. #poster #restoration #handcrafted #design #creative

Last week, I shaped the tips of most of the columns using a chainsaw.
Today, I continued charring the #larchwood columns (with most of the sapwood removed) using a propane burner. This is a variation of the traditional Shou Sugi Ban technique (Japanese: 焼杉), in which the wood surface is carbonized to improve durability, weather resistance, and protection against fungal decay.

I opted for a propane gas burner instead of an open flame, as it allows for more even and controlled charring. The temperature ranged between approximately 1200°C and 1800°C. Each column took about 10–15 minutes. I kept the flame constantly moving to avoid scorching any single spot and to achieve a consistent, shallow burn across the surface.

I'm pretty satisfied with the results.
From my experience, the durability is best when the surface of the heartwood is smooth and evenly charred. I'm convinced that charring larch wood without the sapwood results in greater resistance compared to burning the entire wood (with intact sapwood).

Thought you might like to see how the quilted wall hanging is coming along. I'm tentatively calling it Tree of Worlds. It's about 4 feet square without the edging or hanging tabs.

All the appliques have been adhesed onto the panels, and all but the tree panel have also had the appliques tacked in with edge stitching to reinforce. I will get to that panel eventually...
