I could score the logs they woulnd not be dry until next year. Does anyone
know where I can find a 12x12x12 or 14 blank of a fairly soft wood. I am
only a soso intermediate turner and don't want to try it with purpleheart or
Narda.
TIA

I think you'll find that to buy a blank of that size will be expensive.
Have you considered laminating a blank of the desired size by using
scraps? If contrasting woods are used in the lamination the resulting
bowl can be quite attractive.
