Drying wood in boiler room. Bad or good idea?
Permalink   
 


Been tinkering in the garage for years, but over the last year or so, decided to create a “real” shop and take my hobby to a higher level. And going broke in the process. Haha. Been buying big box store wood, but want to start harvesting and milling my own. Both, for fun and to save $. I live upstate NY so there are an abundance of tress. Both in the woods and at our local tree-guy’s yard. I have a boiler room next to my shop. It’s dry and very warm all year long as I use it for heat in the winter and hot water in the summer. Is this a good place to dry wood planks, small logs and bowl blanks?

Turning your garage into a proper shop is a big step, but it's so rewarding. And hey, going broke for a hobby is a rite of passage, right? 😄

As for drying wood, your boiler room could be a great spot. It's dry and warm, which is perfect for speeding up the drying process. Plus, having it right next to your shop is super convenient.

If you ever need advice on woodworking or home systems, I've heard good things about boiler repair Surrey services. They might have some insights for your setup too.
