What mill do you recommend?

Wow! Someone had a big smile on their face pulling those boards off the mill!! Fantastic!

 

Couldn't have done it myself. I had a great helper!

 

We both did. They're sitting on the deck table out here (much to her dismay) and i keep stopping to admire them imagining what ill turn them into. Have to figure where i can dry them slowly. Not a lot of room here.

 

Moved then inside this morning.
Basement now smells like Granny's cedar closet .

BRAD , you know there is more here !!

 

Proper sticker stacking is important. I have a bunch of apple that’s twisted like a pretzel.

 

It is sticker stacked, I didn't want to leave it out in the heat and direct sun. Brought it in to try to slow down drying as best I could.

 

Any way to untwist it? Ive taken cull PT lumber that was crazy warped, put in on the leaves in my woods (shaded) It gets rained on and walla...mostly straight. Dunno if that would work in your case though.
When i use PT in the warm weather ill always put it in the shade out of the sun and flip it of not being used right away. Lessens the cupping and its easier to work while damp.
