Since adding the Black Oxide coating to our Stabilizers and Carving Stands we have had lots of customers interested in sending their tools in to be blackened. Here is how it works, send your tools to us anytime & we will blacken them and return them to you within 2 weeks (likely even quicker).
How does the process work? We take your Stabilizer/Carving Stand apart and make sure all of the parts are functioning as they should, pieces are tumbled, taken through the black oxide coating process and re-assembled, ready for you to keep enjoying. Should there be parts that need replacing we can discuss that on an individual basis – but for the most part this should be unnecessary.
Why? The Black Oxide coating has several benefits. It adds a layer of durability and helps prevent corrosion (ideal for those who live in humid environments and/or those who turn green wood). Learn more about our Black Oxide Coating here.

When I saw that Trent was offering Black Oxide coating on his tools now, I was disappointed that I had not waited. The wet wood had started a light coat of corrosion on mine. Of course living near the ocean didn’t help!
So when I saw he was offering this coating on previous purchased tool, I jumped at it. Toughest part was finding a box strong enough to pack it in. Back now, and their beautiful. That you Trent.

Excellent job, looks nice, turnaround time was super fast so if it extends the quality life it is well worth the money too.

The black oxide coating is a great improvement for my stabilizer. Living in Florida where it is humid much of the year I had a small amount of surface rust regardless of how careful I was with storage and anti-rust coating. The new coating looks great. Trent’s team had the stabilizer back to be in ten days.

The new finish looks like it will hold up a lot better than the unfinished original

Commitment to customers by making upgrade available to prior purchases to provide the new and improved features. And done at a reasonable price with a fast turnaround.

I’d been wanting to get this done since they started offering this service. Though I have kept my stabilizer and my carving mount hanging on a wall where they both stay dry and chip free there was some rust building on both.
They’ve both been in my shop for at least 8 or 9 years and I have used them a lot over that time. So, even though I have tried to keep them dry and clean … I live in SW MO and we have a lot of humidity and as most know, rust is going to happen.
I got my stabilizer and carving mount to them. They cleaned mine (it had a little surface rust) and then put the black oxide coating on them to help protect against future rust. Not only do they look brand new, they look beautiful!!!
The black oxide coating really looks sexy and makes me wanna take it out for a Friday night drive up and down the street in front of the cool kids McDonald’s.
Seriously, I highly recommend it!!!
