Not really, it would have been nice to get it set up and use it, but in reality there are only so many hours in the day and I just don't have the time.

Cost as much to move it n set it up again as it's worth. I'd say around 800 quid

i would say 1400 to set up not including any wages. 800 could be insulting, i was recently offered 1200 for my old 42 head rig and we bought our 42 stenner for 2500 few years back

the biggest problem with the older set ups is complying with H&S requirments....usually costs more than the kits worth, thats why so many are being pulled out and scrapped. Its possible to buy in a complete new mill from eastern europe cheaper than trying to re-rig an old stenner or forrester to comply with regs

My father and bother are both joiners, they co-own all the tools in their workshop :001_smile:
