Small update - when I milled out the walnut lumber I found a few spots with spalting/rot in them.
The thing is though, it looks really cool! So I want to preserve the spalted patterns it while reinforcing the overall strength of the wood.
I’ve had luck with soaking these spalted areas with epoxy previously, so I decided to try again!
The trick is to brush on the epoxy and allow it to soak into the pores of the affected wood. This should take about a day to cure, and I’ll post an update on how it turned out then!
