So Rex... I need your help and advise. I have a chance to get some of the 30ish diameter trunk of that Basswood. The guys removing the now 2 trees may be willing to cut it to manageable pieces and roll it to my workshop which is right across the street 😀. I would like to preserve at least one 12-16 inch piece for a rustic table similar to your outdoor log workbench. The rest is TBD. What do I use to keep it from cracking while it dries? How long to dry? Where to keep it... outside, inside, covered? I really would like your input as I'm really looking forward to this/ these projects.

Of course. I know we're hand tools here but this was an unconventional build so I'm happy to share my experience.

Hey, just wanted to give a sincere thanks to all you give us. Yes I know our support keeps you afloat but since I joined the group you formed I have had the most wonderful conversations with a world of woodworkers on multiple levels and disciplines and I would never have done it without discovering your videos on YouTube. Thanks and I hope it is all worth it for you as well!

Rex Krueger

Fantastic! Thank you!

Awesome! I hope you get a lot from that tree.

Not this week, lol. It's in the 90's in North Western Pennsylvania... but yes I think we qualify as the cold north.

Very nice wood to work with, if it's northern, are you by chance in the cold north?

Haha 😄...First comment! Yay! My neighbor just had a Basswood tree fall and I'm gonna need this for some small projects. Thanx Rex. I appreciate all you do 👍
