Can you share with us your faux curly maple striping method?
Did you color the brass? It looks like she has some age to her.
Thanks.

I used rebar in white vinegar to make a stain. Took about a month or two to dissolve. I used an artist's brush for the stripes and let it sit overnight. Then wiped the entire stock with the same solution. Let it sit for awhile then washed with a baking soda solution. After drying several coats of rung oil hand rubbed in.

How much rebar and how much vinegar to dissolve in two months?
I have some rusty crusty rebar and 6% vinegar.
P.S. Just noticed the hinges on your stand. I like that. Portable.
