Title: to bend or to straighten?
Post by: chessieboy on April 08, 2008, 07:30:41 pm

I have a sass stave. Due to a poor cut with the band saw its going to be all sapwood.  My question is the one end has a bend like mother nature flipped the tip.  It going to be an ELB design should I straighten it or should I flip the other one?

Straighten it. I've done it twice now, and it save me a bunch of hassle when tillering.
