Black Palm bark removal
« on: April 10, 2018, 07:04:18 am »
So unlike my preferred wood choice of guava, black palm, as I’ve noticed grows like a weed around here. Anywhere you go, you’re bound to find some. Now my question is, how the heck do I get the bark of these things? I’ve messed with a cut piece before out of curiosity and it seems that gray membrane over the black wood won’t cone of that easily, I can’t really peel it as it’s basically paper. Should I just leave it on?

Hi Ryan

To remove rests of bark I recently tested a kind of nylon-brush like this:

Used with a electric drill it removes the bark but leaves the wood...

Cheers
