In the past, I have had great success in boiling fresh-cut walnut and cherry after roughing out bowls - greater than 95% usable after six months of drying after the boil.

I recently scored some 3 inch thick walnut that has been air dried under tin for 2 years. After this much time, will I get any benefit from boiling rough turned bowls before setting aside to dry/stabilize, or should I skip the boil?

Thanks in advance
