We had a small tornado that luckily went around our house a couple months ago. Took out a few trees in our friends property around us. It's just cow pasture land all around us. One of trees closer to us is an oak tree that felled. It was actually two trunks that Y'd and one trunk blown down. It's probably about 18" round or a little smaller and I was thinking of cutting a few slabs out of it. The tree didn't look like it was very dead. I'd like to take a couple slabs and cut some medium size bowl blocks out of it (6"x6"). So I have a few questions please!
1. Should I cut the wood to sizes I want and then
Let it cure?
2. Should I just leave it as a slab and cure?
3. Does it need to cure inside or can I just stack it outside somewhere?
4. How long do I need to let it cure before actually using it? (I do have a moisture meter)
Thanks for any help!
