well couldnt find my origanal  post but got around to glassing and framing the gun so its done. first time to use a wash. cut new western red cedar for frame. watch some utube and tried this. 1 quart white vinager and 2 0000 steel wool unrolled so it was flat in a plastic pail with a lid. let it sit 4 days and  added another quart of water. paint the frame and next day its aged and old looking . lot easier than working with old rotten fence pickets

Great job...love it!

I read the aging process twice and maybe it will stick with me this time.

Wonder how it would work with old barn wood that has a new cut.

I do like the pistol and holster. Classic western.

Hi Gator Tthat is a wonderful piece of scrollmanship if i may call it that .Would love to know if the wording on the cartridge box is also cut out? maybe a silly question as i,m new to this craft and find the projects from you all to be awesome. Thanks again. .

Great cut on a super pattern.  Have used the vinager stain technique and love it.  You just don't know what it will look like since it goes on clear and then changes but it is fun watching what comes out.
