The ash from this thread:
https://www.ukworkshop.co.uk/forums/viewtopic.php?t=5291&highlight=waney
is now dry enough to be turned into the worktops. There is some bark on the waney edges that is very loose (which I have removed) and some which doesn't look like its ever coming off(which intend to leave). However, there is also a fair amount of friable bark that is pretty well adhered but I am sure is going to come over in strips and threads over time. I want to remove this but I don't know the best way to do it without using too aggressive a technique (and damaging the timber beneath) or taking forever over it (the budget doesn't allow).
There are probably 3 m of this stuff, the timber is c40mm thick and the bark varies in thickness from almost nothing to 15mm.
Any thoughts gratefully received.
Cheers
Tim
