Funny, I usually never get oak...so when 2 oaks came down in December of 2008 at my grandparents I jumped on top of it.
So, the trees were cut in Spring of 2009, split and stacked single rows in October 2009. (In the sun)
OK, just grabbed a split out and resplit..checked with my moisture meter and it was reading 34%.....lol
Checked some maple and ash I have, and they were reading 18-20% when resplit.
I'm done with this oak stuff....it might keep a fire going a long time, but I don't have 4 years to sit and wait to let it get below 25% lol
Maybe its just this northeast climate...telling my wood guy next time that he can keep all the oak for someone else.
Burn on folks
