Was given another plum tree by Steve (se7enthdevil)'s sister. Standing dead Victoria, felled this morning, milled this afternoon. If anyone is taking down any more plum/damson/blackthorn/pissardi etc please let me know - I have two wardrobes to make

Alec I like your little set of wheels mate, been thinking of making something similar. Gorgeous planks too:biggrin:

Thanks all, plum is pretty stunning I think - you get pinks and greens in there. The bedroom floor will be elm, finished with as light a sealing colour as I can manage, so the plum should compliment it.

 

The wheels are really useful for moving medium sized logs around and have done some fairly heavy stuff. This got extracted on them:

It's a short axle on a pair of trailer wheels, with a bit of U-channel welded on as a plate. If I did it again I would make the axle a bit longer and eventually it will get modded to stop the U-channel from rolling upside down (see pic), and to give it a handle for pushing it around unloaded. I'm also thinking about some form of mudguard arrangement to stop logs from twisting and fouling the wheels.

Nice work josh. The milled face on the bottom lefft would make some lovely book matched boards.
