Default Plum wood drying


I want to turn some plum that a friend gave me. It is a piece off the bottom
of the tree just below where it split into two sections of the tree. It is
2X2X1 1/2 feet in size. I want to cut small piece for boxes. Can I rough
turn and then boil or microwave until dry. I know the process, not the wood
though. Is one better than the other for plum?

Thanks for any help.
