    Wow...alright man. You were being kind of rude to me, after I had tried to help you. You said "stabilized wood", I took that as wood that had been stabilized by internal bracing. I apologize if that came across wrong.

    That's what ";)" is for. To let you know that I'm just messing with you. Chill out man.;)

    Yeah, and nooshinjohn said this about you:
    a respected member of this group

    You better get on a stick, man, and start goofing off bigtime!


    p.s. I'm not sure about what these people mean by it, except I know that 25 years ago or so, it was a big deal to soak a green piece of wood in PEG, which is one molecule different from antifreeze, ethylene glycol. Don't know if that's what this terminology refers to, but I kinda smell a bunco.

    It does have a remarkable effect of preventing checking and cracking in green wood, which wood-turners were really gaga about, but it was anything but a science at the time.

    PEG used to also be the artificial sweetener in Dr. Pepper.

    I guess so. Maybe I should join up with the spammers and start posting ads for cell phones and PS3's that only cost 20 dollars. Just send your money to this address...:rolleyes:

    Rockwood, judging by your posts, I'd say the very definition of Stable- eludes you.

    Stabilized wood is what I use to make pens.
    "stabilized wood is dried and resin stabilized (plastic impregnated) to provide uniform turning characteristics. Spalted woods often have soft spots; burls by their nature are tend to be unstable and prone to cracking and warping from changes in humidity. Stabilization virtually eliminates these problems."
    When I make a pen out of stabilized wood it looks exactly like wood but the finish shine is amazing. The wood machines just like acrylic and it is not subject to humidity problems.

    I think it would be enormously difficult to stabilize a whole speaker cabinet

    Also, I thought that's what a finish was for... beyond looking nice, it was supposed to keep out any fluctuations in humidity/dryness.
