Well, at a local college one of their old pecan trees had it's guts eaten out by HUGE black ants and fell over. I noticed the personnel there chopped it up, hauled it off, then chopped down the second part of it, and I was told I could grab some of it. I've 6 logs, each a little over a foot long, maybe 8-10" wide. It's hotter than you-know-where on Sunday and it's already starting to sligtly crack at the ends. I'd like to preserve the heartwood, so I think I need to seal them up asap.
Problem is, there's no real woodworking places nearby and I'm stuck from 8 in the morning to 8 in the evening at work then church this week. I don't think they'll make it 3 more days till I can get to the nearest 'big city' to get something like anchorseal, so what should I do? Go to Michael's and blow torch some candle wax and cover the ends? Wrap them in saran wrap?
Tick tock, man! Tick tock!
