Wood-Mizer Kilns

In order to be useful in indoor projects, wood must have a moisture content at or below 8%. Kiln drying is the simple, cost-effective method recommended for anyone who wants to increase profits by selling dried lumber. Kiln drying controls humidity, temperature, and air velocity in order to reduce the risk of fungal stain, decay, rot, and mold. Lumber dried in a kiln weighs less and holds screws and nails better than lumber that has not been kiln-dried. It is easier to finish and quickly gets wood ready for projects like furniture, cabinetry, and wood flooring.

@tonytrilex Hi Tony, Kiln drying speeds up the drying process dramatically, and also the quality of the dried wood. Natural (air) drying takes much longer, and increases the likelihood of mold, checking, and discoloration. Both methods work well when done correctly, it just depends on your needs.

Is there a difference between kiln drying and natural drying?
