Ralph,
Yes I have used my microwave for small pieces on occasions, but most of my
stuff is too large to fit in my kitchen unit. Thanks for your thoughts.

Anyone have experience in building and operating a small kiln for drying

drying affects properties of the wood. Primary wood I am interested in
drying is English Walnut. Thanks!

Greg, as an alternative, have you looked a microwaving the blanks (one
at a time). The reading I done suggests that it works well, the usual
warning of not rushing (ie setting the wood on firre).
I'm going to try it, once I have some wet wood.
