Cedar dries fast and is pretty dimensionally stable so IME drying it you shouldn't have any problems. The stuff I dried was milled to 7/8" thick. What thickness are yours chunez?
W We're going to mill that HL soon. I was thinking of ratcheting strap them to prevent any warping. Milling them 7/8" thick. Maybe some thicker as we cant slice thin all the way on the mill. Whats your experience drying HL Jason? I'm thinking its more prone to warping being so dense.
I only kept one piece of that HL, a top cut, and I've left it standing upright to this point. Haven't spoke to the guy I milled it for but he literally put boulders on top of the stacks so I have no doubt it stayed flat. Most of what I mill is 1.5-2" thick and up. The thinner, the easier to keep it flat IME and the more places limbs grew out of a board, the more tendency to go nuts.
What do you make of this log in front? White oak variety? Bark seems off. Too flooded to get a closeup pic today
