Fairly daft question i think.
But for birch bark spacers i salvaged a good foot of silver birch bark.
Its now dried out and curled up quite tight, can i soak it and encourage it to dry flatter. It also seems quite brittle, i think i have the outer good for fire bark and the underneath thicker more barky bark. Do i use them both for the spacers? Im sure i do but it dont quite look right, or maybe there are birch cultivars which dont do this as well?
Was from a (fresh) felled tree so no fear of damaging it.
Thanks!
