  1. Past hour
  2. Maybe its punkwood Google it...
  3. Or they just don't leave it in the kiln long enough.
  4. Today
  5. So what you are saying is you only tested the outside. If it has been kilned quickly the outside will be dry and the middle sopping wet. You need to split a large piece and test the centre. All wood will burn well if dry.
  6. Kiln drying for firewood is a con. It dries the ends so aggressively that the xylem collapse. The water in the middle can't escape. Or so I see the world anyway.
  7. You can leave it alone; eventually, the adult insect emerges. If you’re curious, you could put it in a ventilated container and watch from a distance.
  8. Where it's a tall cheese shapes wedge I did it all round with the meter apart from the bark side and they were all pretty much the same. I didn't recognise the wood as anything I'd seen before so just wondered if maybe whatever it is just isn't great for stoves.
  9. A photo of the cut end would help. And how did you test the moisture? In the middle or the edge? It makes a massive difference.

    Location is a double garage at the back of our house, (easily accessible via small turn off from Grassyards road, Kilmarnock), is located directly opposite Willowbank School.
  11. Yes . Since I was 5 or 6 years old . 😄
  12. I am gonna try these next. i have had two pairs of Aku and got 7 years out of my first pair and on the 8th year in my second pair. Only used for pruning though. If the chainsaw boots last as long then they with be worth the extra coin. https://www.aku.com/en-nor/products/cimbra-gtx-orange-blue?srsltid=AfmBOopdBA-UpRC6WOaE4i21zuzx2Bl_ioJ_ynsDdj9-9wown9a_S2Z1yDA
  13. Cheers for that, have now attached☺️
  14. You need to attach the photo. But also when you tested the moisture did you split a piece and test the middle?
  15. Can anybody tell me what wood this is? Mother in law has just had a burner installed, I gave her some wood I had which burnt absolutely fine and she ordered some kiln dried of which this is one log and it burns really poorly .... It lights but is difficult to keep it alight. I stuck a moisture meter on it and it's between 14 and 16% so pretty much what kiln dried should be but it's really not great!
