  2. Only 7% of the population live in the countryside.....what we think is of little importance in the grand scheme of things...

    Wow, well done mate.
  5. Couldnt agree more Rupe. I think its a great idea. I also think trailers should have MOTs too. Oh yeah- welcome back and all that:)

Then when you want to post it here, use the hyperlink symbol (the little blue globe with a chainlink below it) and paste the address you just copied. When you submit your post it will appear.
  7. Happy days. Has the Lord of the manor let you have them free then?
  8. WOW!!!! they are amazing!:thumbup1:
  9. BBC 3, 11.35 tonight, after Family Guy.
  10. Its called the EDC and is relative to the EGR valve basically.
  11. I used a slab of olive ash for one, oak for another and macrocarpa for another. No pics i am sorry.
  12. Scraggs, both the hudson range and the norwood range would address all your issues. My hudson is portable, and the length you can have is theoretically infinite- you just keep adding lengths of track. Mine is 21 foot long and will cope with 36" logs. I have been taking more and more custom from woodmizer owners due to inaccuracies from their mill. (usuallly the lt40s BTW).
  13. TBH steve I wouldnt touch a woodmizer with a bargepole nowadays. The Hudson range and the norwood range are superb mills, far more capable and cheaper than a mizer. Mizer just cornered the market in the uK for years. They have big issues with accuracy though, due to the beds bending, especially when you get the longer ones. They are also not that capable when it comes to larger logs unless you spen uber money on big model. The trekasaws are superb too, but as for cover, you need to either house it in a barn, with plenty of airflow, or a lean too on a shed/ monopitch roofed shed with an opening the length of the bed so you can load the mill. Or man up......:lol:
  14. I have a gransfors splitting maul, and IMO its not heavy enough or the handle long enough to deal with heardwood.
  15. On the floor downstairs, or in their beds, or on the sofa if they are clean. Chained up outside if they have been rolling in poo.
  16. I know an old boy who has a good sized carpentry workshop bandsaw with a fence who regularly mills the sizes of wood you are talking about. He makes all sorts of fine shelves and small boxes out of stuff like yew and pear, which normally we would log or chip.
  17. Wasnt that one of Eugene Terre'Blanche's favourite tricks????
  18. One of the three scrapyards on my road had 4k's worth of cats nicked out of a shed.......razor wired site, dogs loose, alarms, video etc etc. The neighbouring scrapyard had 30k of precious metals taken through the roof a few days later......and the one at the top of the road had a large sum of money taken from the safe. Nothing will stop these people....
  19. hi Liam, sorry i didnt get back to you earlier- I did get your message, but my day has been stupidly hectic, endless phone calls and visitors (work related thankfully) and a machine on hire etc etc. Ill call you tomorrow.
  20. I own an alaskan and a bandsaw, and TBH an alaskan is about the worst sort of mill for this size of timber there is. It would be a nightmare attempting to even set an alaskan up around an 8" log, and by the time you have made a few cuts you would have about one bpoard out of it and a load of sawdust. get it to a bandsaw.
  21. You may claim for use of part of your house as an office, and for a portion of the overall running costs of your house pertinent to the proportion of your house that said room takes up.
  22. ELG, have you any experience of the type of thieves that many of us believe we are being hit by recently? Nothing short of illegal means will stop this type of person, and even then they are pretty unstoppable. There is a group of this type of person living near me, and the whole place is a no-go zone for the police. A few years ago a dwelling caught fire and the fire engine that went to put it out was stripped of anything that wasnt attached. This is the kind of person I strongly suspect is responsible for most of the recent theft threads.
