Walnut likes to hold water and has to be hammered, 120 to 125F, compressor at 100% in its last stage.

Will a 5 pound mallet do the trick?   smiley_smash
Nope, but cranking up the heat to when the high pressure switch "almost" trips does.   ;D
YellowHammerisms:

Take steps to save steps.

If it won't roll, its not a log; it's still a tree.  Sawmills cut logs, not trees.

Kiln drying wood: When the cookies are burned, they're burned, and you can't fix them.

Sawing is fun for the first couple million boards.

Be smarter than the sawdust

WDH, on a side note, I was on your web site and see you have eastern red cedar. Here in the mid-atlantic folks  are buying lots of it for raised bed gardens, are you getting any sales on that?

No, not much interest in cedar around here for raised beds or anything else.  I don't sell that much.  It is probably because I am not working hard to market it.
