[Woodcarver] drying a 10" log

[Bill Judt]

Ray:

Welcome to the List, Ray.
I'm sure you'll be a "ray of sunshine" in our List community.

I have no answers to your question, but thought I'd let other 
subscribers know that you are part of my regular carving class, and 
that they must treat you EXTRA special.
How about that?

Blessings and Peace,

Bill
