Hello,
I am a new wood turner in NYC. I live in a town house and set up shop in my garage under a neighbors apartment. She was having work done to her floors and the contractors turned off her radiators. Then it hit well into the freezing temperature and the pipes busted. Raining water into the garage and everything I own for turning. I was able to save the tools by quickly drying and oiling them. I have not started the lathe yet. That is tomorrow's project.
I had about 500 pen blanks of various specie of wood. It was all i asked for for christmas and everyone thought it was funny to buy me wood . Iwas looking forward to trying them all out . All of them are soaked. Completly submerged. How do I dry them out? Or, are they a lost cause.
Thanks in advance for your help.
