Help needed here. I have a photo I'd like to ask questions about.. but, I don't see a method of posting one here. I see no icons on the page like a paper clip or any other. I may not have permissions.. but, I don't remember a text only page
I have a piece of wood I bought from a friend. I believe it is Burbinga... as the only two darker woods I've bought from him are Burbinga and Wenge.. I think this wood is too light for Wenge.. so.. Burbinga.
My question is this wood has some thin yellow streaks that run thru it.. I'm guessing it is resin/sap. Before I finish turning the piece to size I'd love to be able to dissolve this material. What can be used? I have tried mineral spirits.. While I haven't soaked it.. I put some on a rag and it doesn't seem to soften it. Also tried the same process with Acetone.
Help?
Thanks, Bill
