Just got back from a trip from the North West Scotland my wife and I were out for a drive on the one really wet day we had when I spotted these.
So i collected a couple of samples from different trees to have my first go at making some Amadou when i got home.
Having just cut one in half ready to start taking the outer skin off and then removing the woody pores leaving the trammel layer.
I still have the other one and a half to get to this stage before the long proses of boiling
and help and advise on this stage would be appreciated I have seen some different ideas on times and such general rule seem to be boil for hours ?
