How to stain wood to make it look old

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Have been asked a couple of times what stain I use and how do I apply the stain to make a toolbox look old.
This is just my way of doing things, not saying it is the right way or the wrong way. I just think that if I make something out of recycled flooring or scrap pallets then this is a noce way to finish the project as it often enhances the old and used nature of the materials I’ve used.
Videography, as always, by my very good friend James who was also responsible for all the editing, music, colour balance etc. Check him out here:

    Hi, I'm new to your channel. (the first video was the tool chest you just built). Your finishing method is quite similar to another UK wood worker (Epic Upcycling). i'm in the USA. This method clearly applies a stain and wax finish the gives a nice shine without being to bright or glossy. Here you show us how you warm the APPLIED finish and then give it a bit of a polish. Brilliant idea. When you do that, it looks like a bit of the wax is worked into the wood.. I am looking forward to looking at your older videos and what's to come. ;-)
