Five Steps to Correcting Cupping
Table Saw & Board
Often, wide boards with beautiful cathedral grain are significantly cupped. Visually, the board would be a perfect selection for a tabletop or desk, but it's too cupped to use.  So, how do you flatten the board but retain its visual integrity?
Reject, Restore or Refinish
Chances are, there are some pieces around your house whose finish could benefit from some attention. You'll need to decide first whether or not they are worth salvaging at all, and then choose between two options: saving and restoring the finish, or stripping it off and refinishing.
Have Gun, Will Scour
Spray Gun Illustration
The devil is in the details, or so they say, and that’s true for finishing, too. Sometimes, it’s the little things that trip you up: things like a clean spray gun.
Fixing Warps and Twists
 
When you decide to fix a specific problem of wood distortion, it should be with a goal in mind. In this example, the goal is to harvest a specific part from a board that is warped.
Glazing and Pickling
After applying a stain, have you ever been so unhappy with the color you just wanted to remove it all and start over? Glazing may be just the technique you are looking for.
Turning Green Wood
Turning green wood is a wet and wild adventure, but there are pitfalls to be avoided when working with or acquiring it.
Tackling the Inlay Fear Factor
Decorative inlay is an age-old technique that enhances the appearance of woodworking projects.
