Hi all, while trying to turn a log(yew i think) I've noticed a crack down the length of it.


So is it firewood or can it be saved.thanks

It looks as though it is going right to the centre so it would be a bit dodgy trying to turn it even if you superglued the crack. Not worth the risk IMHO and that's coming from someone who will turn most things

Yew ll be sorry :shock:

Not worth the risk , consign it to the firewood pile

Better safe than sorry

gaz8521, as loz says, best split it down the middle and use the wood when dried for small bowls or contrasting bases for larger pieces.

They don't have to be big to find a use, Theseare only 80mm or so.
