How can you tell if a mm is giving an accurate reading?
I tested a fresh split of some maple that's been in a split stack for 11 months and it's at 28%! Tested some ash that's been split/stacked for 10 months and if I just touch the probes to the freshly split exposed wood with the grain I get low 20's but if I push the probes into the wood it reads 28%. Touched my dry skin and 33%.
Wood that's been c/s/s for 10+ months still at 28%??!!
