Aloha Wendy, not sure, I assume this Pine will take forever to dry 🤷🏼♂️ According to my calculations, 80,170 and 200 lbs, but man does it feel like more!!! That or I need to start working out again, lol. Maybe I just need a Will crane. 😆 [ Edited by hang10tiki on 2023-09-07 05:29:18 ] |

Nice logs! The pine could sit for a month or 2 or4 but won't need to dry out that much. It won't change much. Can't wait to see what you'll do in it. Remember it goes thru to the other side. |

Wonderful Yoda. Did a carver retire? That's a great score of wood including the boat front. Will she go into your tiki room? You can do anything, and I'll be watching. |

Aloha Wendy, yes, it was nice to retrieve someone’s leftovers. I will put them to good use. And yes, the lady carving will eventually make it to the tiki bar once I clean it up. Cheers |

Thanks Mike Little more detailing, lots of the sanding, then more sanding, then a little interior decorating on the inside of the hut! I placed it on a lamp to see if the window was big enough and would be able to pick up the light
Remote control Flickering tea light gets delivered tomorrow. Next, it’s time to find an airbrush and pick up some green paint 😆 |

Thanks W Gloss on
So the walking stick branch I hooked onto the 2 x 4 to try and straighten it a bit is dry, it helped a little, so, sanding with a rasp all morning, then I started grinding out some of the knot holes in the top for extra credit
A friend of mine was selling his bandsaw, got it

Golf tee? Oh good Lord! I couldn't even see that, let alone carve it! Turned out great! The cypress knee should be interesting. What type of grain do they have? |
