Nice one Reg, thats pretty cool, did you have the Mission Impossible music playing in your head while doing it??
-
Do you mean "drop starting"?? I can honestly say in 20 years all the best cutters and climbers I'v worked with drop started their saws. Obviously not some thing you would do on an assessment.
-
Thats a nice looking big splitter, what make is it???
-
Lets hope so!! Last year was a shocker for me

Anyone in Lancashire/Yorkshire interested in buying Arb wood?
skyhuck replied to swinny's topic in Firewood forum
There is a guy up Kings Causeway in Nelson who used to ring me all the time wanting timber (he sells logs) in fact he is a member on hear, but I can't remember what he calls himself. Or possibly Peter may be interested if its cheap. Are you no longer doing logs or have you just got more timber than you want to process? -
To Coronet or Not to Coronet, now that is a question

Good luck with this, hope things go well for you

An upside down fire is fine until the first time you refuel, then of cause its suddenly a normal fire again The main reason the fire in the video did not smoke was the fact that the wood was nice and dry.

On a sixpence!!! The ministry put my old one on a rolling road, they were mighty impressed!! They said they were the kind of brakes they would like to see on an artic!!
-
Surely cutting and splitting allows drying??

It will only be short and you may need to slow it down to catch the detail

Soft is generally nice straight lengths that sit well together, so air gaps are pretty uniform. Hard on the other hand is generally more uneven and sits quite badly, so the air gaps would be difficult to estimate.

I remember that feeling, I had it between 2000 and about 2010, it was cool, kinda miss it really :sad:
-
I'm not sure worlds vegetation would consider CO2 a "pollutant".
-
OP seemed pretty clear to me.
-
What is your tyres like? My tyres become quite unevenly worn (I think its all the mini roundabout round here) this can cause my mog to pull to the left.
-
You fancy a wager on that??? I really don't believe it will happen in any of our lifetimes.
-
Thats not actually a Mog, its a train, as soon as you have wheels that use the rails your a train, you have to have train driving qualifications to drive it on the line!! Or so I was told when I did rail work, got to say I really don't miss rail work, its pretty grim, IME.
-
How very sad People are abused and assaulted on trains and buses, people just look the other way, but for this they call the plod, pretty much sums up modern society unfortunately
-
Yes its good to have a different tool for every job, but then when they are sat around not working you wonder wether its better to make do with one tool for all jobs. If I ever got shot of my mog I would defiantly go for a tracked chipper over a tow behind.
-
Would you not miss it? or are you upgrading?
-
Its worth what ever someone will give you, but if its straight and the buyer can see you are genuine you will always get a premium for good used gear, IMO.
-
What chipper for the front of a Unimog???

No, not Ducker, Alex Price . -
And they do not exclude diseased and windblown, so all timber from arb work is fine
-
Yes, much better than the wooden and plastic ones
