Last year I scored a half pallet of 1X6 White Oak that was left over (never used) from a bridge job where they were used as temporary shims. So I put them in stickered dry storage and when the time is right will turn them into project wood. The problem is, that I have never messed with a moisture meter, in the past all my project wood has come from reputible dealers and been kiln dried. What would you gentlemen / ladies suggest for a moisture meter and sources for same?
Also, what reading I have seen suggests waiting until it hits 6% to start planing & working with it, is this correct?
thanks
