Ok so I've been doing a bunch of chainsaw milling. I have milled mostly oak and Cypress. Almost all have been done at 2.25 thick. I've sealed the ends so they don't dry to fast. Right now they average 14% moisture.
These slabs are all stacked inside my shop but it's not heated or air conditioned. I have plaster laths two thick in between each one.
Question is I've had a couple slabs curl, one side concave other convex. Am I doing something wrong to make this happen or can I not control this by any means.
I have flipped the curled ones so the high spot in the center, and stacked weights on them, hoing to get them to straighten out, but that may be all for nought. Any ideas or just wait till completely dry and try to plane them flat again.
