I have very nice piece of Big leaf maple that I'm working into a project. Just throwing a little alcohol on to the wood shows amazing figure. I like to maximize the "pop" in the figure. Does anyone have sugguestions for maximizing the figure in this beautiful piece of wood?
I tried transtint dye with birdseye maple to enhance the figure but I don't have much "spare" wood to work with for testing. I don't want to darken the maple significantly but would like the maximize the figure.
Thanks...Chuck
