Drying question, what to do with this wood?
I bought a beautiful piece of spalted maple on ebay; 8" x10"x5".
It is treated with anchorseal and has been air drying for one year. My moisture meter shows that the heaviest spalted areas are 16% moisture, and the firmer spots are 8%. I am not quite sure what anchorseal is, but presume it is a waxy material to retard drying? How do I proceed with this to use it for turning? Just leave it alone for a few more years? Rough turn it and let it dry out before finishing? Or something else? Thanks. |
