@@BeardedLumber looks like i made the mistake. this from ChatGPT. "The overheat power vent in a Nyle kiln is designed to exhaust air from the kiln, not to supply outside air to it. When installed correctly, the power vent should be positioned to blow air out of the kiln, thereby helping to control the internal temperature by removing excess heat. This is confirmed by several users who have discussed their experiences with Nyle kilns and power vent configurations. They noted that the power vent fan should be oriented to expel air from the kiln, and not to intake air into it (The Forestry Forum) (The Forestry Forum) (The Forestry Forum). For specific configurations and setups, it's recommended to consult the manual for your particular Nyle kiln model or contact Nyle Systems directly for guidance. and from the manual...Power Vent Nyle’s Power Vent kit is comprised of a powered exhaust and manual intake. The powered exhaust is to be secured on the negative pressure side of the kiln (behind the fans) to the inside of the kiln wall the fan side facing the exterior (see figure below). The manual intake is to be secured on the positive side of the kiln (in front of the fans) with the louvers opening into the kiln. (See chamber plans on next page)
@rogerhodges76562 күн бұрын
I was surprised that you planned to use it outside. It's not recommended for outdoor use because it has no resistance to decay and can warp. Sweetgum was widely used in the south for moldings because you have long, mostly knot free boards that machine beautifully and it is cheap. In current times, it has probably been replaced with MDF.

I cut a lot of gum. Your points on defects are all valid. I watched the one before this and the only thing I would recommend is it a slow controlled dry. Strapped and weighted with double stickers - sloooooowly. It's wonderful if it's spalted. I leave most my logs for several months, especially maple and gum, because it's great for interior or veneer, but get funky punky without some cover or sacrifice logs over them. The only other success I've had is 9/4 or bettet and resawing after air drying. Pretty stable and the defect logs are good for those that like to pour and fill. Some very interesting character. I am super jealous(in a good way) of that moulder and am very excited for you. It's a goal for me. That wall will be lovely. Looking forward to seeing it.
