Among my latest 'wood scavenging' haul I have some Yew, beech and Hawthorn.
I have only tried yew as pre dried, and it normally is coloured inside. this is very plain inside :? is the colour to do with type or place of the tree or comes as it dries? and is it an easy splitter :?:
Also, I know hawthorn is supposed to hold detail well and make good finials? but I have a few larger pieces, so how does it behave when turned into a bowl or vase? :?
All advice gladly received.
