I came upon some green hickory wood today, it is in staves about 1 inch square and from 12 inches to 24 inches long. I ran across a place that makes hammer handle staves and they also make drum sticks. I was given a tip that a person could go there and get all the wood they wanted, so i checked it out and sure enough the manager told me to take as much as i wanted. The only problem is it is all green wood. I know that i need to seal the ends, but my question is, what is the best way to dry this green hickory wood? I am trying to accumlate a viriety of different wood. In the past all the wood i have used has always been dried. Thanks for any suggestions. Keith
