This is a mushroom I'm turning for a friend of my mums. I'm using a piece of Christmas tree trunk, softwood knotty and woolly.
I wasn't planning to burn the cap it just looked a bit pale. The turning goes great and burning the cap is just the same, I give it a good charing. Then brush on the loose carbon with a suade brush. I use my normal finished shellac and Chestnut products Cut'n Polish.
I hope you enjoy the video and please leave a comment
