    I intend to use them for slab wood which is close to 12 months old and has been in a shed already close to 8 months in 8' lengths.I am thinking the stuff should be fairly dry before it meets my Buzz saw and then it would go back in a shed another 12-24 months

    Give it a whirl. Remember UV is hard on them.

    I understand but they will never be in direct sunlight when full anyhow.I have a customer wanting to buy slab wood also so with the bags I can load on hay wagon and deliver them also very easy.

    Ok, yes that wood should be plenty dry to store like that. Check your moisture down in one of your packs and see what it's like.

    Hello Guys, late to the conversation but have you seen this type of equipment that helps fill and unload super sacks. Might be useful for the wood feeding.

    Welcome to the club, lots of great folks here, sharing knowledge and humor. What kind of equipment do you have, what do you burn in?

    I have a small garlic/onion operation. Drying these is sorta similar to firewood. The worst things for drying things I've found is to put them in a non-paper based sack.
