Here in the Pacific NW, we just went thru a decent storm. A friend from work has some cedar trees on his property and one fell because of high winds, well it was part of the top at a crotch that fell, but still decent size pieces from it. So I asked him for any of the cuts he will be doing. :cool2:
My question is, how long should I wait for it to dry out before really turning it. These range in size of 8-12" dia. x 12-16" long? Also Is cedar a sappy wood? Most of the sap seemed to be at the bark area only where it was cut. The rest of the wood does not seem sappy.
I plan on storing this in my shop. Its not really heated but it will stay dry.
Thanks,
Ray
