I have been re-reading a great book call The Art of The Lathe, to bone up on some things and came acroos an article about preserving green wod for turning. One of the very interesting items was ESP90. I have looked around on the internet for related topics and can not seem to find anything newer than 2004 for wood preserving topic ESP90 and as I was looking came across LDD using dish soap with just no specifics on it. A few of the links on various posts for it turn up no good as well.
My questions is, does anyone know how ESP90 is done, or is it still a locked up secret or sanke oil? Can anyone explain the process of LDD for wood? I had a maple takken down and have a lot of great wood I want to use for various projects but the first thing I made with the wood split real bad.
I purchased some Pentacryl at my local WoodCraft, but a $20.00 for a small bottle it seems quite steep to use often.
Last, to really get things going and this may be better for another post what is the best way for drying wood with out additional equipment?
