KR> Mil-spec 6073 vs. any other wood

[Charles Smiith]

I am involved in building a homemade lumber drying kiln right now and have been 
studying what I can find on the 'net about it.  It seems that the strength of 
the wood depends on the drying process as well as the species.   Non-mil-spec 
lumber might not have been dried using the process that gives the most 
strength.  Check that out.  The drying process is quite complicated.
