Hello everyone,

I have a question regarding the DNA technique. What I read mostly is that peoople have roughed out their bowls or whatever before the DNA soak. Has anyone tried soaking a large blank before you turn it.

I have a 9"X9X24" piece of Maple burl that I put into a DNA bath for several weeks. When I took it out it still weighed quite a bit. I wrapped it in brown paper and it has been sitting for another week. I didn't think to weigh the thing before the soak so I can't see how much weight it has lost.

Thoughts?
