Cob: Re: charring logsCharmaine R Taylor tms at northcoast.comThu Sep 27 11:26:53 CDT 2001
Mike Oehler in his book $50 & UP does recommend charring the ends in fire, and I saw this done at the Nat. Builders retreat in OR 2 yrs ago while putting Madrone poles into the ground for fencing. the pole ends are burned in an open fire until a crazing develops, which is not too deep. Mike & otheres like Rob Roy used to recommend Penta 5 a toxic chemical preservative, but no longer do. Charring, thentarring, and plastic bags seems to all be popular ways. hope this helps Charmaine Taylor/ Taylor Publishing http://www.dirtcheapbuilder.com http://www.northcoast.com/~tms
