They were purchased by stack from France, fully fumed the entire thickness approx 4" ? Bison timber in California placentia told me ammonia fuming is considered outdoor treatment and they left this stack outdoor - mappa burl <https://groups.google.com/group/legacy-ornamental-mills/attach/4c3b33d4c06b/image001.jpg?part=0.1> The brown fumed smell like sausage , and the white one smell like books, these words are from people blessed with smells, but the fumed smell is strong for sure For bending vinegar probably can be neutralized easily and not having to wait a year for ammonia to evaporate and ammonia should be viewed as a hazard substance for normal population for safety reasons I think.

It does darken woods with high tannin content, like oak. Ash and oak bend adequately with enough steam, but as mentioned, split (riven) wood bends more consistently because the fibers are continuous. Since the fibers must "slide" past each other a bit or be compressed, any loose ends are gonna pop out and create a problem area. Patience is your friend whatever you use.

A cup of ammonia in warm to hot water will soften a 1/4" x 3/4" strip of walnut enough to tie it in a square knot. Ribbon bows are a piece of cake. I recently bent a sycamore piece 1/4 x 9 x 12 into a 1/2 cylinder dome for a box lid. The radius of the bend was about 4 inches.
