I have a question about storing kiln dried lumber....the vast majority (99%) of lumber I purchase is kiln-dried-I confirm the MC with a Wagner pinless MMC220....All of the wood is stored inside our house-70 degrees all year around with humidifier in the winter and a dehumidifier in the summer. The MC is constantly between 8% and 9%. I stack the wood by type and similar sized pieces. For the past few decades, I never used stickers with this wood, and never "found" and problems/issues. The wood was dry and the environment was not changing, so it was not necessary to sticker the wood. A young woodworker-a graduate from the Rhode Island School of Design, came to my shop/home and saw this wood---and started yelling at me...."you must sticker the wood".
Any thoughts? I would rather keep the wood piles as is, unless I am really hurting the wood and therefore my future projects. Is I must sticker-sticker suggestions please?<O</O
Thanks,<O</O
