School me a little on collecting for a natty. Live trees only or can dead ones be used? What's the best way to preserve or dry?

I ran into a black cherry tree today in the park with a good looking fork on a dead branch that I cut and brought home. It has some checks but I would think they could be filled with epoxy. Is it worth the effort? Tape measure Tool Ruler Wood Hand tool

That's up to personal choice. All my forks are dead fall, brush piles, storm downed etc... I won't cut from live trees

The forks has a nice shape but ive never worked with black cherry

A nice backpack works good, but I usually just take a Lowe's 5 gallon bucket with me on a mooch.
