Title: Preping Lams Question
Post by: ChristopherO on February 01, 2011, 10:30:00 AM
I purchased some Cherry lams off KennyM a few months ago. I am finally ready to use them after building a couple of other bows first.  They've been stored in shipping box in a closet until now.  I am thinking they may need a little drying out in the hot box at about 90 degrees just to ensure no excess moisture has seeped in.  SW Ohio is a pretty humid area.  
So I've put thin stickers between the lams, weighted lightly where the stickers are and turned on the lights in the box with a small fan running.  
Am I correct in thinking this is a good idea and for how long would you let the heated air circulate?

Being thin with air moving, not very long. Probably don't want them too dry either.
