Now that looks NICE!   8)
Time to put a load of wood in, start making water!

Take steps to save steps.

If it won't roll, its not a log; it's still a tree.  Sawmills cut logs, not trees.

Kiln drying wood: When the cookies are burned, they're burned, and you can't fix them.

Sawing is fun for the first couple million boards.

Be smarter than the sawdust

Joey, What are the dimensions of your kiln? Did you use a Nyle system? Would love to see more pictures, hoping to build one myself next year.

Outside demension of the building 10'6"×14'6" it is a nyle l53 unit .The hinges is where I made a mistake but I made it work .A friend got a bunch of the solid core doors from a hospital remodel and he gave me a box of really heavy duty and I used 5 on each side. My mistake was I didn't allow for siding when I hung my doors so my pivot point was of by my siding thickness so I used a thinner piece of siding on the jam side of hinges to allow doors to open enough.
