ebonizing

    Black Trans Tint dye for ebonizing maple or popular?

    I would like to make some miniature bat house ornaments (birdhouse ornaments with orange walls and black roof) but I can't afford ebony for the roof. How well does black Trans Tint dye work for ebonizing the maple or popular roof? What application method works best?

    This piece of Black Walnut had some bad scar tissue (for want of a better description) so I tried ebonizing it with vinegar and steel wool. The scar marks disappeared and the mix gave the Black Walnut an incredible intensity without hiding the grain.
