I stopped by Kyle's place and . . .

[PeteM]

this ended up in my garage :gar-Bi

100+ bf of walnut and some cherry. All 8/4

Kyle is doing well and has A LOT of walnut if anyone is interested.
It's all green (mine read as 25% on my el cheapo meter) but very nice.
Excellent price - If you're patient and have some space to put it give him a call.

Kyle, I'll be calling!

I've always wanted to get out to Kyle's and help him stack :gar-La; Kyle I was just reading log prices in the 60's - how would you like to buy 24++" DIB veneer black walnut logs for 200 a MBF? Same logs are 2000 a MBF today in April 2009.

How long would it take to dry cherry? :dontknow:

"Bout a year for every inch of thickness, I believe, to air dry it. Even then it may be 10% or so.

How bout it Scott, Jeff, Ivey, Kyle?

Nice haul! :icon_thum

Matt,

I'm not sure. I think air drying takes about 6 months from 100% (from what I've been told), but at 25% it may take a lot less time. If it dries at the same rate over time, I'm guessing it would take about a month and a half. :eusa_thin Can't wait to see the answer to that.
