Is Alder good for turning?
Yesterday I noticed someone cutting down an Alder tree. They said I can
take any of it I wish. Since I won't be able to try it for a few weeks I thought I'd ask if this would be any good for woodturning. Any advice? Also, if anyone is near Derby, UK and wants some, mail me. There are about 40 pieces 4" to 12" dia, up to 5ft long. I think there is also some Poplar mixed in there. As an aside, there is also a piece of Poplar 40" dia (yes, about 3.5 feet diamieter) about 10ft long which might be a bit heavy for most cars? :-) Steve |
