My local tree surgeon has just given me a large ( 4” across) piece of box. There is probably enough to make a box saddle for every resonator in the country!
So what will be the best way to season it?
Normally I would wax the ends and air dry it for 5 or 6 years ,cut it roughly to size and give it another year. I am 72 which means I’d be 80 before I could use it.
So what to do? Should I just pass it on ( there are some wood turners who would give their eye teeth for it) ?
