Microwave drying
 
Wood. Red cedar to be precise. Anyone try it? Results? How long? I have a special project in mind and only this particular piece of wood will do. It was cut two months ago.

i just cut down two 15' cedars in my yard that were over grown
blocking the sunshine from getting to the upper greenhouse
where i dry out my wood....

tomorrow , i'll cut some turnable lengths for future projects.:jump1:

the key in nuking it is not to get the wood hot so it cracks....put it on 30-50 % for 3-5 min's at a time,just enough to turn the water into a fine fog..you'll see it in the micro when she starts to fire off.
