Nice little generator he has to run his mill.

Nice bloke.

He’s sold his forrester and the generator to go with it. Looked like a cracking bit of kit too for the big hardwoods. 
Yeah he’s a nice guy to deal with. Very knowledgeable.

Bit more milling today. Having had the 881 now a couple months I’m finding it a joy to get through quite a few cuts in a few hours. Also been using the 48” lo pro bar and chain and the combination of these seems to work really well.

And a few more for luck.

Milled up some lumps of pine recently. Old logs. But some useable wood in there.

Our friend Steve helping to lay Alder boards in the bedroom and for some reason looking like a computer generated image. Is the world ready for a first person floor-laying Role Play Game? Hmm 

[Mr. Ed]

And a pool on how many screws will go in to hold this floor down? Plugs to follow. 
 

If it dares squeak I’ll kill it.

Nice. What's the substrate? Rubber? 

[Mr. Ed]

Yes a posh acoustic underlay. Recycled tyres and cork. Made in Germany. I forget the name. Annoyingly expensive but very handy - its squishability (spellcheck that one, motherfecker phone!) allows a little adjustment in screw tension to correct thickness variation. And hopefully the kitchen below won’t hear every fart, quarrel and cuddle from above.

did you clamp the boards up before fixing 

[Mr. Ed]

Regupol - what a name! No wonder I couldn’t remember it. Sounds like a laxative.
