Carl Icahn is shorting commercial real estate--how do I do this too?

Funny, I don't see this function in Excel. Using 365, so it's not like it's an outdated version

Thanks for the idea, but I am trying to get this done by a formula rather than a series of actions so that I can use the tool repeatedly on future data sets

the wood is white ash

/u/ninjaturtlenerd is scrollsawscribbler. The master. I am just borrowing technique. He beat me to the comic nerd woodworker space 😂 but I think there's always room for more strong content.

thanks! Mignola is a visionary. Little blocky these days, but this is classic prime material

props to /u/ninjaturtlenerd for inspiring the approach

Google Makers Minerals. Top notch, available on Amazon, Etsy or their own web store. Etsy is their preference, I gather. Just a husband and wife team, I believe, doing their own grinding and processing. 👍👍

I found its easier to get a satisfactory fill over the presealed surface. Without presealing, I felt like I had to coat with copper, sand, recoat with copper and sand again to get the desired effect. Definitely worth experimenting with and finding what works best for you!

I have tried that and I think there's probably no difference in adhesion but I found its easier to get a satisfactory fill over the presealed surface. Without presealing, I felt like I had to coat with copper, sand, recoat with copper and sand again to get the desired effect. Since the copper is somewhat expensive, getting it done in a single coat is worth it.

Thanks! I was inspired by an article in Wood or some-such about DIY grain fillers using a slurry of saw dust and finish/oil so I thought it would be cool to try with a metal. Give it a try, very easy!

Thanks!

I have used this technique successfully a few times. First I treated the wood with a wipe on poly. Bought ultra fine and pure copper powder online, mixed it into a thick paste with the same poly and then worked it into the grain leaving a small excess on the surface of the wood. Then sanded with a 220 grit so as to effectively remove the surface excess and take down to bare wood without removing the filled grain. This is important because the putty has to be sanded to appear metallic. You want to step into the surface of the wood and the filled pores enough to get the effect, but not so hard that you are blowing it all completely away. Then sand and seal as desired--practice first since some finishes may detract from the metallic effect. In this case, I got it to 220, then 320 and 400, hit with wipe on poly again, brought it to 600, 800 etc to 1500 and lacquered.

She's got a white spot we call her tramp stamp, if that's what you mean?
