i am trying to determine if logs that have been stored at my mums house are dry enough to start using for turnings and carvings, i have tried to read through the old posts but each time i keep comming up with the idea of weighing the wood as it dries, which would be ok accept i dont know what it weighed when it started and i also have no idea how long its been drying, im hoping for some simple look for this or that, but i doubt it will be that easy. im hoping not to need to buy some fancy measuring contraption. also if i do use suspect wood how long before i would likely start to see cracks etc if it was too wet? well any help at all would be apreciated thanks in advance Brett Holmes
