Drying Holm Oak (aka Evergreen)
Hi,
My father is shortly to have a large (40 - 50 ft) Holm Oak cut down in his garden. As a novice woodturner, I have had been lucky enough to receive decent amounts of free wood from him as various trees have been cut down on his property in South Devon, England, mostly Ash and Sycamore. I have tried to find out about the suitability of the Holm for turning, but there is very little information. I know that there have been a few posts on this newsgroup, but I am looking for practical advice on storing and drying this species for future use. Any advice or help would be most appreciated. Regards, Pete. |
