I would start at the beginning and think about what you would use it for. Unless it’s vertical grain fir it’s mostly used as a construction grade wood . So I would want to know what I was going to do with it before doing anything else.

You have to “set the pitch” with heat to turn it to a solid. 160 degrees for 24 hours in a kiln. More reading.
