Have you not got a hobby ?

Looks like he has one of the same as mine @Stubby. I've been drying a piece of beech after testing a split face with my moisture meter. Valiant measured 31% on wettest part of split face and oven dry the overall result was 25%. It bunrned very nicely.

Sorry bud . Only pulling yer pisser . Hope it is useful . I cut and split in the summer , get it in the log store and burn it when it gets cold .  I sorta instinctively no what logs to burn first based on species . But , I burn what I got , no other choice . Not had a problem and not used a moisture meter in 10 years . There is one somewhere ...
