  • Best way to make the most money with a portable mill is to cut the least lumber you can.

If someone is going to run a kiln that book is a must read.
But hokey smoke its boreing.  But its a very good reference once you understand the operation and trade offs in drying wood (and its tax payer free).
Another good read is Wood and how to dry it.
