How to Prep Green Wood
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 เม.ย. 2022
- In this video I show how to take a fresh cut piece of green wood and prep it, minimize water loss, and prevent checking using products you probably have in your garage. Please note: this method does not guarantee your lumber will not check, and there are many other factors that go into air drying lumber including but not limited to - humidity, temperature, wood species, and thickness of the piece. However, following these steps will at least give you a much better chance at having a working piece of wood when you are finally ready to make that amazing project!

I would treasure anything created by Addie ! Congratulations on her STATE championship!
Thank you! I know that would bring Addie a lot of joy if you won, and she says a very big thank you for the congratulations!!!
This is so cool! That’s so awesome to be able to share something special between a father and daughter like this! Love the vase Addie!
Not gonna lie - it's a pretty cool thing when your kiddo takes a similar interest that can be shared together. You are in!
Very impressed by the craftsmanship and the videos.
Much appreciated! You are entered!
Awesome achievement 👏! Congrats to her winning as well as her amazing talent. It's great to see the younger generation getting involved with a craft rather than so much time with video games and social media. Any piece created by a young maker is a piece worth having a lifetime.
Agreed 100% - happily, when she not in working on a this type of project, she can usually be found painting, drawing, writing, or sewing. She truly loves to create!
Such an amazing piece of art! Keep creating beautiful pieces. I also enjoyed wood working as a kid. I would love any piece she created.
I didn't know you love wood working as a kid. Maybe your family makes a trip to Houston and Addie could get back into it! :)
Her vase is beautiful and her win is well deserved!! I’m excited to see all that she continues to make! I’d love to display and show off any work of Addie’s in our apartment next year!
Now, just asking but there any official woods for Nascar? :)
The Imagination Woodshop I’m not sure about that, but I did just discover that Wood Brother’s Racing is the oldest NASCAR team (founded in 1950) so I’m gonna go with that haha! I’m no wood expert, but maybe there’s a wood working technique that is all left turns to create the product? 😉
I love this so much!!!! Congratulations Addie and Steve, your work is amazing! Can't wait to see more!
Thank you for the kind words. Addie is producing so amazing stuff. You are entered!
Addie is awesomely talented in so many areas. Her vase is incredible. I am already a winner by just having her in my class. But if I won this, a cup of some sort would be something I'd treasure.
I believe the feeling is mutual about how she feels about being in your class! Good luck!
I would love to win a custom hand turned piece by Addie. A small bowls would be nice, or perhaps a small covered box! Keep working your beautiful mind filled with creativity & style Addie! You are definitely going places! Congrats on your big win for the state of Texas!
First comment entered - who knows, it may be you! Covered box is an interesting idea!
Pick me! Pick me! 😁. Congratulations Addie on your award for the beautiful vase. I’d like one just like it!! 😍😍😍
Well good news - you are definitely entered then! Who knows, you just might get lucky! 😁
Of course I would love a piece created by Addie. I am resisting the urge to get it by more traditional ways, mostly involving guilt!
I know she would absolutely love to make something special for you, and you probably wouldn't even have guilt her!
I love your videos. Your daughter is extremely talented.
Glad you like them! They are a lot of work, but a lot of fun. She is pretty awesome (humble dad brag). She is making a hand turned tea set right now, so I can't wait to see the finished product. You are entered!
You rock, Addie! That's awesome :)
She does. She really does. :) You are entered!
Even if I don’t win, it’s so awesome to see your daughter learning such valuable skills! You must be very proud of her ♥️
Thank you, I am - and I'm always excited to see what her creative brain thinks up next!
Addie, Congratulations on your STATE win!!! Your skill and talent is evident in that amazing piece! I would love to show of one of your custom pieces in my home! Perhaps a bowl or plant pot??
Thank you for the efforts you put into this channel. Imagination Woodshop always gives great tips and inspiration!
Ahhh!!! Thank you so much for the kind words! Fun fact, Addie loves to garden is always trying to grow something with that green thumb. The idea of creating a decorative pot would be a really cool project! Good luck and you are entered!
Yay! Go Addie!
And yay to you for entering to win! Good Luck!
Such an awesome skill to have! Becca and I would love any work done by Addie to show off in our apartment next year!
That would be fun! But should be worried a couple poor college kids selling it off at the pawn shop? ;) Just kidding! I think that would be really cool if you won, and well played - you two doubled your odds with two entries and one apartment. Always said you two were smart!
@@theimaginationwoodshop5886 We’d never sell it! Yes we decided to double the chances by both commenting haha
I have a number of pieces of turned wood art and sculpture in my home. Would be great to have an Addie original to add to the collection!
I sure after all of your travels, you have many amazing pieces! I know Addie would be humbled to have her work amongst your collection.
Wish I had that kind of creativity
I bet you do. You just need to find that medium to let it out!
Also, you are entered - maybe Addie can get you on the lathe and you could discover a passion you never knew you had!
