The utilization of wood with an appropriate moisture content is one of the main problems that faces wood industry. This problem begins since the fabrication phase and remains during its service life. In order to contribute to the solution of this trouble, this paper presents the design of a solar kiln  for drying wood, of 1200 board feet capacity, built in the facilities of the Department of Forest Products and Forest Management. It explains the methodology of the design, its operation, the wood piling and the steps for controlling temperature and humidity while drying. To this day, results can be given for four drying loads, particulary about drying time, initial and final moisture content, temperature and relative humidity records, inside and outside the oven, as well as the relation between temperature and the daily insolation hours. This kiln is an interesting option for wood manufacturers, because its construction requires inexpensive materials easy to obtain; also, the construction can be made by medium qualified woodworkers.
