I know you could say that about many things I am sure.... but I would make really, really good use of these with my wood boiler set up. $400 just seems excessive. These are in SW Ontario Canada just fyi. Ugh so handy, if they stay listed for a while I will ofcourse be making a lowball offer lol!
Ontario Firewood Resource uses a similar system for his firewood business, so as to not take up too much real estate.
Ok. Cut off the solid metal floor. Replace with diamond plate mesh and you’ve got the beginnings of a stackable vertical wood drying kiln powered by a wood stove underneath No fans required. Needs solid sides of some sort of course and a stove pipe running up the middle. Raised roof with eave vent. I’ve had pipe dreams before LOL
