Today on Modern Builds, we’re making an American flag, but not just any flag, we’re using a Japanese wood-burning technique called shou-sugi-ban. All of the equations are on my website below if you want to make a different size as well as a template for the stars.

great info. I cant wait to try this.
Interesting…I like it. Nice job.
Since your not much of a wood artisan, it helped out with the rustic-ness of the build.
any tips on avoiding having glue squeeze out getting on the charred grain and messing that up?
Did you clean an wire brush the burnt wood
If you wanted to seal it with a lacquer will the chard stripes seal n not flake off . I did one n sealed it with water base poly n it flaked
just made my first one today. used .40 cal spent bullet rounds as the stars. I'd send a picture but not sure where to send it to.
I meant to add the comment on this video. .4" is 3/8 on your tape .4×16=6.4 so 6/16 (sixteenths being highest denominator on your average tape) reducing to lowest terms=3/8
How did you get the paper star pattern off . Did you sand it off or burn.
Did you wire brush the pieces you chared
Where did you get the pattern with the stars
youre living in the past with on 13 stars on your flag ahhaha
Super job my friend! You did the stars much much easier than I did, but I guess I'll know for next time. Maybe you could swing by my channel a check out the flag I just finished. 🙂
