First load should be something simple to dry.
The sweet spot in small scale kiln drying is to have a predry shed that works perfect,, then only dry 15%mc or less .

So what is the perfect pre dry shed??

In my experience the words "fresh off the saw" and "kiln"  mean you better know what you are doing...have GREAT mentors or...be VERY lucky :D  Heck this time I can mess up air drying :D

Mike, I never got any "attitude" from you either.  Just good questions from man who spent hard earned money on a new expensive tool, that is very anxious to not destroy his first load of precious high end wood ;)

I have been learning alot from this thread. ;D

This is the first I had read this since I posted. I wanted to say I didn't post out of any sense of someone having an attitude, although I will in a heart beat. ;D I posted to help a new member, that might not be in the know on who was giving him advice.  That's one of my jobs as the board policeman. . Actually my forum involvement goes a tad deeper then that Mike, so you may occasionally see unexpected stuff from me, but its only as part of the gig. 

Perceptions on an internet forum can be a hard read, and when you have several thousand guys with smashed fingers, blury eyes and sneezin sawdust on thier monitors, its an almost impossible thing to read. But I can tell you for the most part, here un-like many other places on the net, 99.9% of the time if you perceive towards the positive and good, you will be right on.
