Why kiln dry lumber?

I run into folks on an almost weekly basis that say they can air dry lumber and do just fine. Maybe, maybe not!

14% MC is about as dry as air dried lumber gets even after a number of years in a shed or barn. In a kiln we dry down to 6% MC which comes out of the kiln at about 8% MC. Even if it picks up some later moisture it is a different moisture as the sap moisture is gone and the sugars stablized or set.

It also allows us to stress relieve the tension in the wood fibers so that furniture or project parts keep their shape and dimensions and parts will come off the saw straight. It is just so much more enjoyable to work with wood that does not pinch the saw and stays straight. It will also come ff the planer with a better finish with less sanding involved.

The extra cost is returned many times over with a nicer end project.

We offer custom sawing your logs to your specifications and can also kiln dry it for you so you can use the lumber quicker and with greater satisfaction.

And we maintain a good inventory of kiln dried local lumber for you to select from in a number of species.
