  1. Actually if they are only that size put them on a truck and take them to somewhere like Suffolk Tree Services: Saw mill For small logs like that it shouldnt take them much over an hour to mill.
  2. :scared1: Not. Probably the best way to ruin your wood! Borrow an alaskan, or give me £400 and ill come all the way from cornwall with my bandsaw mill and still make a day rate!! (Not really offering BTW, but £300 is day rate for me and mill!)
  3. Cool post again Dean! Love the close to home thing!
  4. A woman was in a coma. One day the nurses noticed a slight response whilst washing her 'down there'. Thay told her husband about it, and suggested that he try a little fellatio to see if it may bring her round. A few minutes later her monitor fletlined- no pulse at all. The nurses rushed in-"what happened?" The husband replied" well i did what you said, I think she choked!"
  5. Your coming to cornwall mate- does it get any wilder??
  6. Having a really sucessful day at a local country fayre demo-ing the sawmill and handing out loads of cards and selling loads of bits on the day for mega money compared to usual, then getting knackered getting everything back again and really depressed, then getting on arbtalk and feeling really good again! Top buzz.
  7. Told you- the ever reliable and helpful Jonesie.:001_tt1:Ill be getting my next lot off you also Justin.
  8. I usually get it from a place down here in cornwall- Bodmin Garden Machinery stock it i think, and R.Sleep Ltd can get anything stihl related within a couple of days if they havent got it in stock.......but i am sure that Jonesie could help...
  9. Hi- just had another look at this thread and see no-one has mentioned the Stihl RCX chain for milling- thats all i use, and it is excellent. I find that green oak is the nicest thing to mill BTW, with the cleanest finish, and ash must be about the worst! I think the tighter the grain the better the saw copes, but sharpening accuracy and vigilance is the most important thing.
  10. Just tucking into a rare fillet steak....thanks for that!
  11. Having had a corneal abrasion so bad that instead of a couple of drops of painkiller in the eye, A+E nurse emptied two ampoules in and then got all the other nurses in to have a butchers too, I can totally sympathise. That was milling spalted beech with Stihl integra helmet- visor and mesh, and a headwind on a beech butt up to my shoulder. Carried on and had to leave my truck half way home as i basically went blind for an hour!!!
  12. My son...... And my now super sweetly running landy - been graually sorting it out for a few years now bit by bit....runs like a new one now. Sooooooo chuffed!
  13. Hm coastguard busting some little fishing boats......a customer in his missus' lingerie!!! I kid you not!!
  14. :BoomSmilie_anim:cheesy little tossers with big bore exhausts and all the rest of the crap that goes with it:thumbdown:
  15. Isn't that how you're meant to do it then?
  16. Had a funny one once; was doing quite a lot of work both arb work and stonewalling for a mega rich retired city dude- 43 yrs old- and we came back just after chritmas and when he paid us at the end of the week he told us he had put in the 5% rise , as if we were on his books, saying we weren't charging enough!! we were on a higher day rate than anyone else working there anyway!!
