This is my favorite piece of vine maple that I brought back from vacation. It sure looked smooth until I peeled off the green bark and saw all the lumps and bumps. :)
How well does vine maple hold up in very dry climates?

Probably horrible Greg...better drop it at the post office and send it to wet, muggy Michigan :pray:
Yeah I dont know either but you can send it to me. It would at home with the humidity we have here in SC. LOL
Geeze Greg I've got a couple that look alot like that. I'm bettin they hold up just fine.
Thanks.

Mark,
I think your staves came from the same general area. This one has a big knot(thus the name "knothead")in the middle, it stands about 1" tall. I can always store it in the basement where the humidity is higher, with my yew bows.
Sorry guys, if I send out any more trees the mail ladies at the post office are going to beat me with a stick. Something about being too heavy.
