I am starting sof (R. Morris' Book),and all I was able to get was kiln dried clear ayc. I want to rip the ribs now because I am going to bead the edges with my bead bit from the strippers and then soak them for about 16 days.
First question is their anything i can add to the water to help absorbtion?
2nd How many feet (average with overage) Should I rip of the 1/4" x 1 7/8"
