From last post I said I met someone that offered to bring some fresh cut logs that they were clearing to build. Today he showed up and dropped off to me a nice big load of mostly Box Elder (of which alot of it has the red or Flame as they say). Alot of it was no good and I have been cutting it up into firewood.
But I managed to save about 8 good size logs of Elder and 2 of Willow........Still I paid him some money for the time and effort to bring it to me.
Question: I read on AAW about the red in the box elder and trying to keep it from turning brown. There was alot written about a bleaching process but im not going to bother with it as its to much effort. Anybody else do anything to keep the red in it ????
Thanks Dan
