Title: Any kilns near the Nothern Panhandle of WV ?
Post by: WV_hillbilly on March 26, 2024, 10:23:10 PM
 Does anyone know of kiln services operating near the Northern Panhandle of WV? I just started into the Rabbit Hole of making wood/resin items. I'm looking for someone with a kiln to dry some of my wood or possibly selling dried live edge boards and slabs.  Primarily looking for hard Maple, walnut, apple, cherry or ambrosia maple.

Also, you can take a look at the iDry website which has a search engine for registered iDry owners.

  Check the WO site below. I don't see any in WV but some in PA advertise Kiln services. I don't know how close they are to you They or some in MD or even eastern OH might be close enough. Good luck.

Thanks.   I was born and raised in WV , got married and moved to OH. I'm only a 1 1/2 from the OH river, up on a hill, so i can still see the homeland.

   I know the area I think. I did a project in Weiton for 2 years and could look out the window and the "Welcome to PA" sign about 300 yards away, drove 5 miles and crossed the Ohio River into Steubenville in Ohio so was in 3 states almost every day. First time I ever heard the term "You'uns" which was common up there.

i grew up a mile from Cabelas at the Highlands. That site was a gob pile for Valley Camp Coal. We spent many hours riding 3 wheelers and dirt bikes there as kids.
