I have a couple bowed green treated 6×6 10′ posts. I read an article a while back on how to let-in steel angle(?).
Anyone remember which issue?

Whatcha using the posts for exactly? Can you cover them with 1x to make em look straight if thats acceptable? Or are the posts supposed to give a timber frame effect? abd how bowed is it? Can you get away with using a power planer to split the difference si it looks acceptable?
