O/k,so I happened to land about 60 b/f of 5/4 rough cut
spalted maple. When I saw it,I thought it would be perfect
for a bar top I'm building for my (very dry) walk out basment.
Having never worked with it before,I started to search SMC
for finishing ideas. This is when I found out the spores can be
dangerous when cutting & planeing.
Well, I got ready to plane & joint some. I told my son to go in
the house ( my garage is my shop),put on my resperator,hooked
up my H/F dust collector & cut some raised panels for a vanity
I'm building. My son tells my wife and she flipped out!
My question are, how dangerous is this wood to work with?
Would it be safe for a bar top? I really want to use it,its beautiful.
I only paid $125 for the lot of it!
