Thanks Dozey,
Unfortunately there isn't a guide on the forum for bursting. I'm thinking of doing a video on my method for my next build. I use water-based Colortone dyes from Stewmac for my bursts which are a little easier to work with, but others have also achieved great results with Dingotone.
there are a few you tube video, such as this one:

Hope this helps.
cheers,
Gav.

Serious case of burst envy lol
Might have to get some blank sheets and practice, practice, practice
This is the technique I used, see 6th post down. I used colortone stains & tru oil on this axe.

It ended up like this (second post down)

Have a few practice runs on scrap and you'll soon get the hang of it
