Thanks Will, going for burnt though.

ATP: Mapp Gas. Hand torch. Stainless steel brush. Should I be brushing immediately after burning?

Sorry I forgot to answer your last question, yes you can scrape the wood right after burning, the more times you
repeat this process (Burn & Scrape) the more wood grain becomes prominent for that "Witco" look
since Pine is a lighter wood, you should have a desired look after a few burns.
