Hello all,

I've got an approximately 8' long section of spalted maple sitting by
my lathe just waiting to be turned- I've used a bit of it, and it's
pretty nice, dried, with a good spalting pattern and a bunch of worm
holes. I kind of line the holes, but I'm a little concerned that
they're going to get filled with bits of crap over time if I leave

Snip

Thanks!


If there is any question of any of the critters still in there, a
microwave does wonders killing them off.

Yeah, but then where's the fun of having a gigantic live bug come
flying out of the wood and onto you?
