Wakey Wakey time to answer questions
A friend of mine has a walnut tree (20 Yrs old) in his garden that has to com down because it has out grown the garden. The tree once down has been offered to me in any sizes I want.
As someone who always buys kiln dryed, being given a tree is a novelty.
My questions are: Is the tree too young, what would be the best way to cut the wood for use as planks, or should I just keep it for lathe work, how long would I have to keep the wood before its usable, and whats the best way to store until usable?
