hi curtis, i just joined here and its great to see that your already here. i have been amazed with the stabilizing of the so called pinky wood that my friend likes to throw in the burn pile.that being said I hope its ok to share on this site the question i just sent you with the photos...
I left this blank soaking for about two months with a weight on top to keep the wood under the level of the cactus juice, the metal weight was encased in a hard plastic and i really honestly forgot about the blank in the bucket of juice. when i pulled the weight out of the cactus juice the plastic looked like it was melted, and i think melted is the wrong word but.. it reminded me of glue that has been left uncapped for to long and it looks like a big snot ball, i cleaned the wood off and cooked it when i took the tinfoil off the blank the pic shows what i found, i had never seen this happen before or sense, just wondering what happened and why it looks so weird. I will be the first to say it was my fault I'm sure i messed something up but just for my own personal knowledge of what not to do in the future
