1. Place burl in oven at VERY close to 165 degrees F for 24- 28 hours.

Right now, the sections are about two feet in diameter, and longer than
they are wide. They're certainly not going to fit in the oven. : )

I will probably paint the ends of the logs and leave them for the time
being. In the future, I'll likely section them and go through the
crystallization process at that point. Thanks again for the info!
