Time To Burn

I see, just seen your other posts and I see your a potential pyromaniac!

 

 

 

Do like your work though!

nah just a maniac

im demanding it! lol what about air dried? iv got loads of wood but its either not log cut or been dead for a while and been left out in the nice Scottish weather.

i dont make anything with them, i just sell them on ebay for all those wood turners out there, i do sometimes do pyrography on some small slabs of burr i like how the burr frames it.

hello looking for kiln dried round wood that i can slice to make these.

7/8 diameter

do you mean money? depends on size

oh how awful for you. thanks god my burrs are fine. just sticking to selling on ebay for now thanks.

Apologies, It wasn't Bruce Hoadleys book. It was How to season and dry your own wood by Alan Holtham.

Chop end of wood to be lathed. To avoid end splits.

Turn wood to almost finished size.

Weigh item

Microwave on defrost for 1 minute

Leave to stand for 30 mins. It will crackle and make noises whilst cooling.

Turn item upside down.

Another minute defrost.

Stand 30 mins. In all microwave and stand 4 times.

Leave overnight

Re weigh item. note weight.

Repeat 4 more defrosts and standing sessions.

Finish in lathe on slow speed as it may be out of true.

Varnish etc.

Obviously adjust and learn with experience. This applied to a 280g bowl.[/QUOT

do you think this would work for slices of wood that is going to be kept indoors
