I have a question for anyone that can help me regarding curing some wood for a pen. About a year ago a poplar tree got hit by lightening and shortly there after we cut it down. Recently I split some of this wood and found an interesting black stripe down a portion of the wood, along with the usual green and white that is more normal in poplar. What type of preparatioin should I take to prepare this wood for turning? Or can it be done at all?
