Seasoning of Wood

by J. B. Wagner

The Electric Heater

In [Figure 101] is shown the Electric Heater. This heater is especially designed to dry quickly the test pieces for use in connection with the Scalometer (see [Fig. 100]) without charring them. It may be attached to any electric light socket of 110 volts direct or alternating current. A metal rack is provided to hold the test pieces vertically on edge.

Fig. 101. The Electric Heater.

Turn the test pieces over once or twice while drying.

It will require from 20 minutes to one hour to remove all the moisture from the test pieces when placed on this heater, depending on whether they are cut from green, air-dried, or kiln-dried boards.

Test pieces cut from softwoods will dry quicker than those cut from hardwoods.

When the test pieces fail to show any further loss in weight, they are then free from all moisture content.
