Need to dry small pieces of tree
A neighbour's favourite mountain ash went down in a windstorm the other
day, and they have asked me to create some keepsakes as it was the tree they were married in front of. I've slabbed a section of the trunk into approx 1" x 5" x 18" pieces for stickering and stacking. Am end-sealing them now. The wood is very wet. Can anyone point me towards a cheap way to speed up the drying somewhat? I've told them that it could be 6 months before it's dry enough to work, but she's been through chemo lately and even though she seems to be doing well, I would like to do this as soon as possible. I have never worked with mountain ash (rowant) before and don't know how to expect it to behave while drying. All and any advice would be most welcome. |
