Hi, I recently bought some monkey puzzle wood. Now I have it home I am at a loss as to how to deal with it. The bark is at least 1" thick and oozes a thick creamy substance that sticks to everything.
I removed the bark from one round but not sure if it should be removed while the wood is green. Looking at it I think it woud probably take at least 2 years to air dry.

Does anyone have any experience with this wood? :mrgreen:
