Well this is the first time I try one of this. It was soaking wet. The size of the block was about 6x6x5. I turned it to this about 4x5 by shy of 1/2 in thickness then I wrapped it in paper and left it on the garage. After 48 Hrs it lost 2 Oz cracked, and the bark separated from the wood.
At first I thought it was the wood orientation but being that is a natural edge there is no other orientation that I can think of.
The question is. Was this meant to happen or could I have prevented it?
Thanks for the responses.
