Send Message: To this poster

My first time with 12x16 shina...
although told by McClain's that warping won't happen if they are stored flat...
whether cut one side or both...
rumblings around the house insist that I post the question.
Is there any benefit to shellacing/sealing the edges of Shina?
After it's cut, what about sealing the surfaces then?
It's either hot and humid here, or bone dry....
should I be concerned about these boards
or is the fact that the grains run in the two directions
a stabilizing factor enough that there is nothing to worry about.
There..."rumblings" should be pacified....thanks...Linda
