My latest small slabs.....

[quietfly]

So these are the last set of serving platters I milled before the wife imposed the "eminent baby arrival project ban"
They are Cherry Barked Oak, colored with keda dyes, sealed in shellac, then coated in epoxy resin "liquid glass" .

Your stuff looks great. How long do you have to let the wood dry before you do that stuff to it?

I delivered some fire wood this morning, then milled some 4" thick Hickory in the afternoon.

In most cases probably not long enough. The rule is like 6-8 months per inch. A lot of the stock I'm using now is about 3 years old.
If you are completely encapsulating the wood you can get away with using much greener wood.
