[QUOTE="osci, post: 269795, member: 2859"] @Yak, thank you for the great job! I compared your translation with the original italian text and i must say that is almost perfect, you really got the sense of it. For the sake of precision let me just amend this part: "We notice in working with them that the the drill bits pull long ribbons of briar when it is properly seasoned and it is soft when sanded. Briar that is force-dried is hard -- it has an almost metalic sound when two pieces of it are knocked together, and drilling it produces chips rather than curls." What Mr. Amorelli says is the opposite: " We notice in working with them that the drill bits pull long ribbons of briar when it is not properly seasoned(still fresh) and it it is soft when sanded. Briar that is properly seasoned it has an almost metallic sound when two pieces of it are knocked togheter, and drilling it produces chips rather than curls." [/QUOTE]
