Just cut 30-foot tall 1.5 foot diameter oak (how long to dry out?)
I was going to prune the top of a 30-foot oak, but on advice of this
forum, I simply chain sawed it down. I cut up the logs into 20 inch lengths of from 1.5 feet in diameter down to about six to ten inches in diameter. I stacked the logs up, unsplit, and then began to wonder how long it takes to 'dry' out for campfire use. What's the rule of thumb (if any) for how long unsplit wood takes to dry outside before being usable in a campfire setting? (The California climate is such that it won't rain from now until December.) I'm guessing the bigger oak logs might take all summer to dry out? |
