Dealing with Oak logs and limbs
We have three oak trees that were removed from the streets this week by our shire. Pin Oak, English oak and I think Algerian oak. We have a bandsaw mill to saw the logs into boards which I plan to stick and air dry. There are a number of large limbs that I have started chain sawing into lengths, halving for bowl blanks and sealing the ends. I believe the oak sapwood is liked by lyctus borer and wood like to treat the wood with borax. Does anyone have any suggestions how I go about this?
Will the oak keep OK if I leave the bark on and let it dry in the round?
Finally anyone keen to try some green oak and would like to come and collect some limbs we have more than we need.
