SWMBO and I went to a crafts show a few years ago and there was a vendor selling all sorts of "Lichtenberg" stuff. The maker had done everything from simple panels that you could hang on a wall like a picture to end tables to large dressers. We liked the simpler pieces, but when it came to the dressers and other large items, especially when they were filled with bright colored epoxy, we lost interest. The large pieces that were just minimally figured were fine, but it looked to us like the maker had gone a little far with some of the pieces. Almost garish in appearance. For those not familiar with the Lichtenburg process, there's about a million of these videos out there. For entertainment purposes only (the lawyers made me say that) ;-) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=krIy7YLuhrM |

I just don't believe that Matt didn't know that it was dangerous. And Caitlin? She's an RN. She didn't know that working with electricity can kill you? DAGS for fractal burning. The very first hit, right on the Google results page (you don't even have to click a link) says: "Fractal burning, also called Lichtenberg, is a process that creates images such as these on wood using high-voltage electricity and a conductive solution. ... The American Association of Woodturners Safety Committee issued a policy against fractal burning, also known as Lichtenberg, banning it from AAW events. Jul 24, 2017" If that's not enough for someone to dig a little further, I don't know what is. "We didnt know it was dangerous" Seriously? |

Yeah, high voltage/power electricity (it's got to burn wood) with a conductive solution... What could go wrong? |
