The stave is 74 inches long, no less than three and half inches wide, three plus inches deep.  Along its length it twists about 15-20 degrees which could easily be straightened, if you like, with dry heat.  It has been drying since Oct 31, 2011.   The sap wood has been removed a single ring has been chased.  The back has been sealed in shellac.  There is a tiny radial check in one end which does not come thru to the back ring and is an area which will be cut off anyway.  No knots to speak of.  A nice stave IMHO.  
Sorry, but I could not figure out how to post these pics in a reply pm.  Let me know what you think.
