Question Done
This is one that I started some time back. It is ash that has been drying for two forevers and is hard as a rock. My worksharp finally come so I sharpened all my tools and gave it another go. It did stop some of the tear out and I got done with it. It is 4"by 12" and it is the hardest piece I have worked with so far.Sharp tools are a must!!!!! Vince
