Need some feedback on this Pith In Cracking page's info
Posted earlier "Pith - The Pits!? and learned some more
about "pith in" cracking. With some of the feedback from those responses, some reading in Hoadley's "Understanding Wood" and some playing with tables of radial and tangential shrinkage values for a bunch of woods and some work in a spreadsheet to calculate T/R Ratios I'm starting to get a feel for what's going on and why the pith propogating cracks might be aviodable. http://web.hypersurf.com/~charlie2/T...hrinakge0.html Would appreciate feedback - illustrations and text make sense and are correct? Still need to do the "what you can do to reduce or eliminate pith generated cracking" illustrations and text but want to get thisfirst set of info right first. Thanks for any help you can provide. charlie b |
