Kiln

Started up the kiln today after almost a year to give the boiler a litte more of a workout in the shoulder season, forgot to take picks before I closed it up. Had it up to 180 last year with a load of fresh splits.

turned the kiln off yesterday, gave it 24 hours to cool, split this piece of white maple and took a temp reading of the inside.
