some rather spiffing tree there! I'm a bit miffed that he's kiln drying it though, surely wood that good you would give it the good grace to let it air-dry naturally until fruition?

You can't get to a low enough RH with air drying for use in many houses, especially those with air conditioning (or in the UK central heating). That makes kiln finishing the only viable alternative for the last 4 to 5 % MC

I didn't know that, how would someone like Krenov get round that problem as I read in a couple of his books that he only ever uses air-dried wood, does he build it into his designs, or are there ways of construction to combat the extra moisture?

Air dried timber is far more pleasant to use IMO than kilned stuff which can often be dull, lifeless and a bit 'carrotty' under a tool edge, and besides, air dried is usually much cheaper. That said, it will only come down to about 20% MC which is too high for inside use. The way round this is to chop up your timber to rough dimensions and stack it (in stick) in a reasonably warm place for a couple of months, behind the settee is usually a good bet or under a bed, but you'll probably have to get permission from a far higher authority :wink: to do this. Once the MC has dropped a bit more you can machine it to approx sizes, tho' I like to leave it a bit longer still after the first machining before reducing to the final size. Air dried stuff is much better to use, but does require a lot more time and it can't be rushed - Rob

I do find this slightly amusing - I posted a question asking whether anyone might be interested in some of my c. 300 year old English oak tree and, on the whole, was told it wasn't really worth much, I'd overvalued it by a long shot and was easy to come by in most timber yards. Fair enuf...

I then see a thread with people drooling over similar timber on a "Wood Porn" website! 8)

Maybe I should do the same - post some pics of my pippy oak and beautiful quarter sawn timber and charge a membership fee - perhaps I could update the site daily with new photos and videos... This time next year I'll be a millionnaire!! :wink:

Anyone fancy a subscription?!

 

[ByronBlack]

Gary, i for one would definitly be interested in seeing some photo's of your oak, as mentioned before I would be interested in purchasing a couple of boards from you depending on your location.
