Any tips on correcting/preventing cupping of carved wood panels?
Hello Gents.
My father-in-law is a great wood carver of 35 years+ experience and is currently concentrating on rocking horses.
He has given us several of his works, some of which are on largish panels comprising several boards glued together. Whilst he has usually taken some care in arrangement of the grain pattens etc while assembling the panels, some of the carvings have still bowed or cupped (one quite considerably) after being carved. Despite his experience he has little idea on how to remedy this - his experience is woodcarving - not general woodworking.
Any ideas on how to correct this problem or prevent this happening?
Many thanks. Wayne :confused:
