So I've had this in mind for some time and am finally getting around to it.
The wood aging process was a fun learn. After many many test's, this is the final result on the project.
The wood came with the old barn serrations in it which was really cool and then I carved in some deep groves and old nail holes and beat it up the edges with a big wood rasp.
1. is a steel wool and vinegar solution stain (youtube it) that was supposed to turn wood grey. But in my case it was turning it brown. But It was actually a good effect.
2. Diluted grey stain.
3. Diluted red paint. Found a color that best matched the actual piece of original red barn wood that I had.
The graphic looking picture is what it will look like when done.
I still need:
American Strate globe. This one will be hard to come by!!!
American globe in either red or yellow frame.

Amoco and American ad glass will be lit up in holes.
