I'm wrapping up a project for a client who has been sitting on a ton of white oak flooring. It's a pretty cool story actually, the tree fell on her property years ago, she had it milled, dried, stored. I've installed as much as she wanted up a wall, converted it to shelving, and built some furniture. Now the job is nearly done and there is still a ton left. She's decided to give it all to me, and it's enough to fill my promaster low roof up to the ceiling. Normally I keep my wood in the shop, but this would take up far too much space. I do have an outdoor lumber rack, but I typically reserve that for softwoods that go into framing or exterior projects.
Will this store reasonably outside, in a covered space over winter in Oregon? Or do I really need to consider getting a climate controlled storage space to keep all of this wood in? I'm not especially familiar with the moisture content and consequences of interior, to exterior storage, and then back in the shop for use.
