I am carving a bust in some Cottonwood and everything is going along fine when I hit a small patch of off colored wood. it carves more like a dried sponge. The rest of the wood carves very nicely. my tools are sharp I strop them every 10 or so minuets. Could this be some form of fungus or decay?
I look for wood that hasn’t been lying on the dirt and dead less then a year generally cottonwood branches I get have fallen and are leaning against the tree.
not a real big deal just curious.
