I hope you will be happy with the results of the air dry wood in those stacks.
Looks like there are some potential fine products from that wood.

Are you located in a climate that is good for air drying?

Very Nice, can't tell if you did already but get some wax sealer on the ends and add another sticker to within an inch of each end to reduce checking.  Looks great!
