Ran across some nice "driftwood" on the Outbanks last week. Appears to be maple, 2 inches thick and up to 20 inches wide. All the pieces were same thickness and clearly were cut by bandsaw mill. Curiously I found one piece on beach near Corolla and next two pieces 60 miles south below Rodanthe. Upon returning to Corolla area a few days later I found more. It's drying now, but as it was covered with sand, I have trepidation about cutting and planing (lots of sand!). :-( Suggestions on "de-sanding" appreciated. Other than hosing off, I intend to use air compressor
