Building my kiln and looking for pictures of a cart to roll into kiln.  Thanks

If you contact Nyle, they will send some diagrams using their wheels, which are perfect.

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.

Not sure why I posted here and not drying? Maybe someone can move me?

Here's my cart.  4' wide, 12' long.  


 
07 TK B-20, Custom log arch, 20' trailer w/log loading arch, F350 flatbed dually dump.  Piggy-back forklift.  LS tractor w/FEL, Bobcat S250 w/grapple, Stihl 025C 16", Husky 372XP 24/30" bars, Grizzly 20" planer, Nyle L200M DH kiln.
If you call and my wife says, "He's sawin logs", I ain't snoring.

Thanks Tom. Does it roll straight for you? I am thinking a track?

Hi Tacks
Email me for Nyle's kiln cart plans. We have the wheels if you need them.

It will have a track to keep it in line, and to baffle from the floor to the bottom of the cart.  It does roll fairly straight, I could only roll it about 30' and it was only a few inches off line.  In use, it will only move 13' forward and back.
