Step 4: Cut two 1” sections off each end of the samples, Kiln Sample Boards and mark them with the number of the board they came from. To measure moisture content on a daily basis, it is best to use sample boards. Moisture meters are Example: the two sections that came from sample not accurate enough for most hardwood dry kiln board 3 would be labeled 3A and 3B. -
