Hi all,
I see multiple posts with projects completed from"firewood", which obviously hasn't been processed in the "ideal" way (pith removed, ends sealed, etc). How are you guys working with this type of wood?
1) cutting around the cracks?
2) fixing cracks with CA glue?
3) turning the whole log, with pith, or chopping up smaller pieces?
I have quite a few logs that I'd like to use, that are unprocessed like this - walnut, honey locust, and a few others - looking forward to seeing how best to tackle these!
