hello everyone,
i'm new to tiki central but Formikahini got me carving tiki's about 2 years ago. i've been using pecan(lot's of it here in houston) but scored on 3 big logs of a palm tree and have a 15 ft palm for carving that will be mine shortly . my question, if someone can help is how do i dry the logs (4 ft x 18 in) and how long should i wait? any help will be greatly appreciated.
