You had to say crispy... now all I can think of is pulling out my planer, taking a slice, and tossing it into the deep fryer just to see what forbidden flavors exist.
Not impossible, but I use bursts of about 30s max, it doesn't even get overly hot. Otherwise, something even scarier can happen - it may case harden 😮. Jokes aside, I've only done it for very specific occasions, perhaps a few times in my whole life. I'd invest in a kiln or just buy dry lumber to start with.
If you combost this would be a great thing to mix into the pile. Home compost tends to be nitrogen heavy and having a nice source of carbon will help the pile cook faster.
Get or make a spill plane. It produces these tightly curled yet long shavings that form kind of a little stick. They're intended to transfer fire from one place to another, like lighting candles, stoves etc. from an existing fire source, kind of like one of those long matches, but without the match head.
The most visible piece isn't technically joinery, but cutouts for my vise grip. Though the boards on the side are legs and stretchers for the workbench, all half laps. Just started that glue up last night
Adjusting the depth of cut is kind of a constant thing. I adjust multiple times per board depending on how much I want to take off. It takes some practice to figure out how to deal with slop. If there's no depth wheel, it's even more tricky with tapping
I'm glad there's lumber in the background because at first I thought this was a condom and that provided the necessary context for me to realize what I was seeing.

Have you ever microwaved a piece of wood to force dry? I have and man - what a smell... I can remember it even now.

taste better with the toaster oven

That sounds like a wonderful way to make a splinter bomb or start a fire.

Honestly, that'd very probably be edible and delicious
BootLoop@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 213d
I would definitely try that.

Mmmm piney

Make ice cream like Justin The Trees.

Fine planer slices like that trigger some weird monkey brain reward pathway. I just wanna shave a board down to nothing to have all the plane ribbons.

I have a trash bag full. I can get you more if you want to jump into a pile like autumn leaves.

They make great kindling.
thenewred@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 214d
Yeah trying to give them away to someone who can use them

My little barrel is full unfortunately. I need to expand my capacity.

I was thinking more like that scene in Scarface where he's just covered in coke.

Oh neat, I'll check that out!

That's some interesting joinery in the background. Whatcha making?

Very nice! Hope everything goes well!
pageflight@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 214d
So satisfying when that works! What are you making?
thenewred@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 214d
Building a workbench so I can do more hand planing!
CanadianCorhen@lemmy.ca · 2 pts · 213d
Beautiful
Bought a hand plane, sharpened it, it's... Fine, but bites way too deep.
thenewred@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 213d
Meaning it rips material out? Or the depth of cut is just too deep?
CanadianCorhen@lemmy.ca · 1 pts · 212d
just too deep, needs a bit more tuneing.

Looks like a piece of rawhide my dog’s been chewing on
