I need a little help. I managed to acquire some medium plus toast French oak staves that are 36" x 2" x 1/2" from a cooper friend. My only previous experience with oak is kit-type stuff: dust, shavings, and cubes. Can someone help me to figure out how much of this stuff would be appropriate to use at one time?
I figured I would cut them in half and then split them down the middle to get 18" x 1" x 1/2" pieces, but that exposes two untoasted surfaces. Any help would be appreciated.
