Ponderosa Pine
Buy a box of Tyvex overalls. Get a good goggle and mask.
Wear hat etc.
I use the Tyvex to spray chemicals or paint. Nice to have a box of them in the
shop.
Just be sure you tape your sleeves on tightly. And your neck...

A friend took down a Ponderosa Pine tree in his front yard and I got
the trunk - 22 - 26 inches in diameter. The piecies weigh a good 150
lbs. I don't have much experience turning wet pine, or pine period,
really. This stuff has a lot of sap in it. What effect is that going
to have? Will it ever dry/cure/whatever? Is there anything that will
seal it?
I'd like to make some large salad bowls if I can deal with the sap
issue.
