I agree with what Paul has said. Rough turn dry and then return. The pics attached show what I use to do this.. It used to be a heater box for brewing wine/beer but no longer used. It is an insulated box powered by a 60wat light bulb in line with a thermostat. There are holes in the sides for air to go in and I leave the lid very slightly ajar to let out the damp air. Hot air rises along with the moisture from the wood. These can be made very cheaply from celutex or the like held together with tape. I find that after rough turning, weighing etc that the items have stabilised in weight within 2-3 weeks. I run it at about 28-30 degrees. One of the pics shows my larger kiln, an Arrowsmith, which holds about 30 cu ft of 1"thick boards, which dry in about 5 weeks. The main thiing is that Rome was not built in a day and you can't hurry a curry!!!!!
