I think that you wood could have used a good sanding. that stuf looks like you dragged it down the pavement first behind your krauter.
you can adj the depth of colour on most of those dyes

Thanks for the tips on staining the wood, and it is hard maple. I didn't spend much time sanding it, was mostly trying to see what the color would turn out like, and what I tried definitly didn't work. I don't know anything about working with wood (it shows!) but I'm willing to learn.
