two part question, part one. semi-dry branch, squared to 1.25" ends sealed with wax. How long do I let this dry? Part two, anyone ever make this stuff into a pen?? Pretty cool heartwood. I know I have to work around the soft center, but the rest should turn fine, right? I hope to grab some of the very white sap wood too. I managed to get 4 big blanks out of it and would like to make at least a set of cigar pen/pencil's for my dad and maybe a slimlind for my mom. The lilac has been in out family for generations.. My great, great grandmother planted it and this will be a suprise for them as they don't even know I brought this chunk home (branch cracked so I "trimed it off"
