I'm working thru a batch of extremely dry palm now and once I get close to the middle the fibers just crumble and fall apart. Very unstable being this dry. The heads up tiki I recently finished was a very wet log and did slice like a pumpkin and cracked and split quite a bit as it dried. It looks good now but a couple times while carving I thought I might be wasting my time.
