Having retired to Tassie there are a few jobs the home boss requires to be done before I can renovate an old barn and turn it into a workshop. (All my woodworking stuff is currently crammed into the back of the garage.) One of these jobs requires the removal of two large cotoneaster trees (they grow like weeds over here). Each has several 6 inch trunks (OK I know they are therefore technically bushes) and a short ‘trunk’ about 18 inches high and about 18 inches diameter. My apologies for the units but I still think in furlongs per year despite a 40 year engineering career.
My question is, is cotoneaster any good for turning and, if so, what is the best way to store it till I can get into it? I also have to get rid of a large hawthorn tree which I’m sure is good for turning – right?
