Safety is paramount when using high strength ammonia for fuming wood, requiring proper ventilation and safety gear. The fuming process darkens wood by reacting ammonia with tannins, with adjustments made to fuming duration for desired results. Calculations for ammonia usage depend on tent size, starting with lighter fuming. Finishing techniques involve applying two coats to match existing wood. Future products include a solid walnut bed frame, designed for easy shipping.
