First time poster long time reader.
I have a fallen eucalyptus of some sort on private property. Approx 700mm diameter and probably a good 8-10 metres of straight usable timber.
It is currently laying as it fell stump to leaves. Probably been fallen for 12 months or so. I want to cut it into as few pieces as possible and move it into an iron shed to season it.
Eventually I will intend to mill it and possibly make an indoor dining table with it.
Hopefully I will be able to cut it into a couple of pieces maybe 4 metres long.
What is the best way to store it for a few years to prevent as much cracking as possible?
I have 8 litres of old interior water based paint I could use to seal the ends. Is this good enough I should I be buying a specialist product or an oil based paint?
Is inside a shed the best place to store it? Dry and no sunlight.
