What is a good way to dry wet firewood quickly?

Postby colmcille » Tue Jul 16, 1991 1:23 am

Hi, I live in a suburban home without much backyard space. Since my dad has a severe allergy to the petroleum fumes from our furnace, we depend on burning wood in the fireplace during the winter. The wood is seasoned, but due to a mishap, absorbed a huge amount of condensation and is very damp. Because this happened over the course of at least a month, its a good bet the wood is soaked all the way through. Winter air in Portland, Ore. is generally pretty humid. Does anyone have a surefire indoor method for drying the wood in 2 wks. to a month. Doesn't have to be bone dry just to a point where it is usable.
