I recently cut some of the roots off a walnut stump and cut it into blocks and pen blanks. The wood is really wet as it was cut in the winter so much of the sap is in the roots. Also I power washed it to get as much of the dirt and rocks out as possible before using the chain saw.
When I cut it up with the band saw I ran into pockets of soft wood and even some grubs.
I'm at a loss now to know if I should seal it as is or let it air dry a bit before doing anything. There is some mold already growing on the wood.
I appreciate your thoughts.
