Boxwood blanks

[doobin]

I have a large quantity of good sized boxwood here. Need to process it down for storage prior to sale. What lengths are most profitable (it's up to 8" diameter), and what's the best treatment to stop splitting? I have a wax spraying gun here. Let surface water evaporate and then spray the ends? Or spray the whole log? Or what?

 

Thanks.

Lucky you, its amazing wood with a fine grain that feels like ivory and takes a thread well.  I process and store my own.  Generally people use it for small stuff - tool handles, pens, knife handles, small boxes etc. so Id just store as large logs.  I don't find it splits much and the bark protects the wood well, Id just spray the ends.
