I stopped by a lumber mill in Plumsteadville PA today.
They had great prices on air dried lumber.
The name of the lumber mill was Heacock Lumber. I didn't check the
lumber out, since I was on my way to pickup a tool repair.

The prices were too good. Anyone have any experience with them?

Heacock Lumber is quite reputable, and will sell you what ever grade of
local hardwood you want from FAS on down.

In a later post, you mentioned about bringing a plane and moisture
meter with you. I've had no problems with using either tool there. In
fact, half of the time I'm free to walk around the yard and look
throught the inventory.

Air dried is what it is. Great for some uses, not so great for others.

The last mill in the area that I knew of that had a kiln was
Hunsberger's, north of Sellersville on the old Rt. 309. Alas, they
closed up shop in the fall of '04. It seems as if the 4th generation
Hunsberger clan had no interest in keep the mill going.
