Crafting with tree logs question

Cheri_C
11 years ago

My husband and I have been making things out of logs. And we want to do more. Our problem is we've been having trouble when we cut the logs into pieces they end up splitting. We have used season wood and just freshly cut wood. Is there a specific tree that doesn't split like some of the others do? We live in the woods so we have several different kinds of trees. We have made deers, rabbits and angels. And I've had a set of deers and angel for several years and they have never split. Not for sure what kind of wood they are made out of. I was working on the angels tonight and every base that my husband cut out for the angels has a split in it. i would appreciate any advise you could give me. Thanks so much. Cheri
