I know it sounds crazy but othere than getting kicked out of the house by
SWMBO....................I don't see why it would not work. I did the math
and and it looks like it would run for $3.74 per hour @ my electric rates. I
am not talking about a lot of wood here, just a few pieces to turn or maybe
sheet or two of veneer. The stationary rack is about 24"long and 16" wide.
They kiln dry here for about 30 cents a board foot, but won't fool with a
few pen blanks or similiar. Just curious.....cuz I hate to be the first fool
to try this and tear up the dryer or worse......burn down the house! It was
time for an upgrade and we did the HE4 washer and dryer from kenmore. They
sat here about a year due to deaths in the family & you name it. Got them in
last weekend and thought about this. All comments pro and con welcome.
Really hoping to hear from Arch on this one as he says Turn To Safety. :-)
Thanks Lyndell
I wouldn't. But I've seen some ways that do work. An old refer with a 40
watt bulb (the owner said anything larger cooked the wood). Oh ya, he
also had a couple holes in the side near the top for ventilation. I've
also seen a standard fruit dryer used. As has been noted the key is SLOW
drying
