I had the misfortune of losing a beautiful Oak tree in my hillside. I
also had the good fortune of losing a beautiful Oak tree in my
hillside. Woodturners see things this way.
I believe that the tree is Hairy Oak. It has a red bark, rays
throughout and small oval red dots.
My quest is to preserve as much, if not all of it, for turning. I
cannot rough turn all this wood in the short time it takes to crack.
Does anyone have suggestions for preserving the logs for later use?
