Title: Kiln locater question
Post by: Jim_Rogers on April 26, 2010, 06:44:29 PM
I'm looking for a site, page or list where I can find kilns or kiln operators in my general area.
I am a member of NEKDA but don't have a kiln as I want to learn more about it.

I need to find a kiln that will custom dry some white oak planks that are 2" thick, up to 22" wide and 22' long for a custom table top.

If anyone knows a way to find a dry kiln that will custom dry this lumber in the New England area, please let me know.

I have emailed several kiln manufacturers and several of them are working on it for me, but none have come up with a website, page or list for finding kilns that do custom drying.

Thanks

Jim, Have tried this yet. I went to Mass.gov and did a search for sawmill directory and it came back with two different years. The directory listed kiln as well as sawmills. Hope this helps.
