Are the woods sold by our unbeatable voodoo wood merchants dry when they are sold?
I do not have way to measure moisture of wood. If they are dry, they can be stacked (is this correct) or if not dry sticker them.
So, with the wood they sell, do we sticker or stack?
Thanks Guys,

Bob, I would always recomend stickering wood until it has a chance to aclimatize to your shop. I usually sticker new wood for about a month and then just stack after that.

It Varies.... Most venders will tell you the status of the wood you are buying. Some is well seasoned, some air dried for a year or so and some is right out of a kiln.
