I have become the proud owner of a recently cut Persimmon log about 8" in diameter and 6' long. I am trying to find information on the best method of drying this wood. I understand that it can be very difficult to do so without it warping and cracking. I have found suggestions that the best way is to dry the entire log "properly" (whatever that means!). Other suggestions were to over-saw it about 1/2" or at least an inch thick. My intention is to make pens and bowls out of this wood. Any and all suggestions would be welcome!
