dco1958:
Thank you...
So I should LEAVE the bark/sapwood, split the staves, and seal the ends?  Anything else I need to do to create quality material for a bowyer?

cracker:
No sir take off the bark and sap wood and seal the back and ends. Thanks Ron

Prarie Bowyer:
At least quarter it.

I'm interested in a stave when they are ready.

Bevan R.:
If you leave the bark on, be sure to spray it down real good with bug killer. Then again in a few weeks. Easier in the long run to split & strip it.

dco1958:
Awesome advice.  Thanks to all who've replied.  Next question...what kind of sealer?  Any particular product?
