Re: TO Strip or Not??
Oh man, sorry to hear about the cat.
Hopefully Kyle will chime in on your question, but I left the bark on the piece you gave me and painted the ends and exposed face. Seems to be working ok.

Re: TO Strip or Not??
Robert,
The Black Walnut Burl that was given to me dates back 40 years forward and I have had no problem removing the bark. Then only problem I am having is I am going to have to buy a bigger bandsaw to resaw it. GEE! That means I got to have surgery again!!
NOTTA!

Re: TO Strip or Not??
Thanks Terry the burl I've got is cherry. I talked with a guy yesterday.He said he would strip the bark and seal it. Almost tempted to go ahead and get it slabbed out first.  |
