I am thinking about laying quarter sawn white oak hardwood floors on my first floor. I'm in Central PA near State College, and wondering if anyone knows of any kilns in the area that would dry the boards for me if I provide them. The guy at sawmill I go to has a white oak job coming up. He said he'd be willing to quarter saw it for me, but couldn't kiln dry it unless he happened to have other stuff to fill the kiln, because his kiln is for 30,000 board feet and I will only need about 1000 ft. including any excess.
Anyone know of anyone with a kiln who'd do this? I suppose I'd be willing to drive about an hour or so if needed. Driving time is not as much of concern as cost of gas with my truck. Thanks.
