Is there something about black walnut that causes it to dry differently??? By that I mean sometimes fast and sometimes slower?? I have some now that has been sticker stacked in my shop {heated and air conditioned} with a dehumidifier running to keep the humidity to 50% or less for the last year and it has only gotten down to 19%.
The last batch I had went to around 8% in the same time frame. I have also had other wood in the shop {cherry and maple}, not a lot, but some that have gotten down to like 9% or better in the same time frame. The wood in question was cut in the winter time so the sap should have been down and it did not seem like it was very wet at the time. I have cut some white oak that had water literally running out of it when the blade went thru and it dried faster than this.
Thank you for any information, it is greatly appreciated.
