This is actually a stealth gloat. I found a new lumber supplier in my area that I went to visit yesterday for the first time. This place has only one price for all the lumber they sell $2.00/bf. And here is the real kicker - the lumber is all kiln dried to 6% moisture and flat as a pancake.
I couldn't believe the quality. I didn't need to go through piles, every board was a thing of beauty. Just took a half dozen from the top of the Oak pile. All rough sawn, but they will provide S2S for an additional .80/bf. I passed on the service - I'll plane it myself.

So, here's the question - how long should I keep the boards in my shop before starting to mill them?

Thanks
