Saved a few logs from my timber cut to mill for my basement man cave. Local guy milled it on site... (this is not my truck) but gives you idea of volume of 6 logs.

How long are you going to let them dry?

I think I dried mine for a year before milling, then another year stacked on stickers, then I let it acclimate in the basement for a few months before putting it up. It still shrunk some.

I’m thinking one year?? I’ll ask my buddy he’s a contractor. He works with barn wood/milled wood all the time.

Is it one year for stacked lumber to dry out? Plan is to use the milled oak and walnut for a man cave project...Thanks  |
