I was driving with the misses the other day when I saw an old tree (Poplar) had lost a limb. I wanted to pull over but it was -46 and the girl was not having it. Got busy doing errands and almost forgot. She caught me coming home the next morning with two pieces 5-7 inch in diameter and 2ft long chunks. The misses said they’re not allowed in the house but it’s been -30 to -55 degrees these past few weeks so I snuck them under our bed and they drying out nicely. Can’t wait. I’ll get into to em mid summer.

I’m 2 hours from the Boreal Forest and one hour from Nisbet Forest, I’ve got an old 1988 Toyota truck and we will be on the prowl for unique pieces this Spring. 🇬🇧 🇨🇦

Heavy cuts, must be 15-20lbs.

Thank you.You answered all my questions. I was thinking about trying resin instead of buying sealers. I am so glad i found your video.

Thank you, we are trying to make coasters and cake stands and our wood keeps splitting. This helped.

You taught me something about wood today. Thanks so much!

Many thanks, exactly what I was finding! I have loads of offcuts, just needed something to seat them before I can use them in the garden as a bit of rough furniture.

use pentacryle right after its cut for 24 hrs works great 👍

[kevinpilkington]

Hi Jeremy, loved the video....ya know...I tried sealing up a slice of black gum once, mine didn't do as well as your species has so far. Thank you for the work you put into your projects as it is quite refreshing to see old school ethics meet new school innovation. will be looking for the cnc...

Can i let it sit in a fire for a little bit to dry it out ? Thats about the best option i can think of. Or can i put a space heater on the wood for a few hours ?? Will that work ??

Another method to stabilise the wood could be to use polyethylene glycol which was used in the preservation of the Mary Rose.

A sawyer told me let the limbs dry fist then saw them into cross grain slabs and he had loads of 3 to 4 inch coaster type cookies with no cracks or splits.
