Nice job, looking forward to watching more of your videos. I’m considering getting a woodmizer kiln and now I know much better about the work involved into getting started!
That's why we made the series I watched every video I could find before we started and I didn't find much help. I hope this helps you and others Thx for watching
Great outcome. You guys worked very hard for it and deserve the finished product if it was mine I would feel very satisfied with each use Congratulations!!! Ray Stormont PS 120F seems to me to be at the bottom of temp. range for kiln drying hard woods and may extend drying cycle times. For pine and other soft woods kiln temps reach up to 240F for oak/maple/hardwoods kiln temps. of 175F - 195F high temps are common. Is 120F what wood mizer recoommends?
great video. i look forward to your journey. question about the over heat vent. does it suck air into the kiln and the positive pressure sided vent eliminates it? you indicated that the power vent exhausts. i think it might actually draw in from the outside. thanks for clarifying.
@@BeardedLumber looks like i made the mistake. this from ChatGPT. "The overheat power vent in a Nyle kiln is designed to exhaust air from the kiln, not to supply outside air to it. When installed correctly, the power vent should be positioned to blow air out of the kiln, thereby helping to control the internal temperature by removing excess heat. This is confirmed by several users who have discussed their experiences with Nyle kilns and power vent configurations. They noted that the power vent fan should be oriented to expel air from the kiln, and not to intake air into it (The Forestry Forum) (The Forestry Forum) (The Forestry Forum). For specific configurations and setups, it's recommended to consult the manual for your particular Nyle kiln model or contact Nyle Systems directly for guidance. and from the manual...Power Vent Nyle’s Power Vent kit is comprised of a powered exhaust and manual intake. The powered exhaust is to be secured on the negative pressure side of the kiln (behind the fans) to the inside of the kiln wall the fan side facing the exterior (see figure below). The manual intake is to be secured on the positive side of the kiln (in front of the fans) with the louvers opening into the kiln. (See chamber plans on next page)

Merry Christmas thx for watching
thanks for the info, I'm just getting into building my mill and I'm going to build my own kiln. so your videos have been very helpful.
That's why we made the series I watched every video I could find before we started and I didn't find much help.
I hope this helps you and others
Thx for watching
Great video! Kiln looks great. I didn't realize that second bay might be for another Kiln.... Smart thinking!
Thx Third Beard we really appreciate you watching stay tuned you never know what we might do next.
Top shelve great series. What are you loading it up with first, I have a large pallet of cherry you could do. Very nice job guys,
The first run is 1800 ft of my poplar then I'll start running customer lumber

Woodmizer and nyle recommend starting at 90° then going up to 120° to finish at 6%
And sterilize at 140 to 150°
I guess you probably had a lot of beard scratching moments building that
Yes, there was a lot of pre-planning and head / Beard scratching.

Yes it has two vents 1 power exhaust and 1 passive intake vent it closes when the power vent turns off.
Thx for watching 👀
@@BeardedLumber in our kiln, the power vent inhales to the kiln while the passive exhausts to the outside. I wonder if we installed ours backwards!
@jdavid1707 one of us did but the instructions we very vauge .
I don't think it really matters either way
