I was out and about today and 2 guys where throwing out some freshly cut Silver Maple. I immediately pulled over my truck and loaded some up.
Once I got a bowl blank roughed out, I started to turn. That's when I noticed that it was getting fuzzy. I understand tear out, but the fibers actually standing out? I tried to hollow out the bowl (see picture) but it just frayed more. I'm brand new to turning and don't know my fanny from a hole in the ground when it comes to wood, but is there something I can do to stop this? Wood too green? It was cut today...
I really appreciate any and all advice...
