I started out with a true 2 inch thick piece of black walnut which i planned fairly flat. the black walnut was suppose to be dry and my depth of cut was 1 to 1.1 into the wood. almost over night the board started to warp. my thicker pieces that i have worked with in the past did not. I was told by someone locally that perhaps cutting slots on the back of the board could possibly take of the warping.
Anyone want to comment on how i can prevent the board from warping after cut. i do like working with black walnut and am about to venture into elm.
this is still a work in progress and i should be able to take the grainy-ness out of the project.
