Maybe i do need to buy that super slabber!!
-
Yes. I’d be very interested. 07703192775 [email protected] thanks
-
Should be ok I guess. Cut a few and see how they drive in, 1 1/2" should be fine. I've always be of the opinion if they are straight then use anything, they really only need to last a few seasons-hazel isn't that durable. I've used birch, dogwood, sawn softwood, peeled willow etc etc . I'm sure years ago folks would have used what they had.

Cool makes sense thanks
-
Any reason for the reson for 0 degree or just personal preference? Im on 10 on my slabber
-
How wide can you go. I can get 1.5m on my slabber but I don't think its enough!
-
They are at my yard near Oxford. Sounds like a plan, go to be worth as go as they are fliipin massive!! Butt has got to be 6' diameter and 10' long- took some shifting. We moved them a couple of years ago, not sure how long it had been down before that

I've got these big ol lumps of Oak to mill, just not sure if I should spend the time on them or just bin them (some of the other rough bits might go that way). I'd like the challenge but they definitely have signs of decay and are a bit soft in places. Original thinking was to try and cut some posts and boards out with the Lucas (might have to do a bit of mill moving) and work around the soft bits. Or maybe try and get some monster slabs either with my slabber or get someone in with double ended chainsaw mill. Any thoughts?

I have one from Logosol on the bench and did use the granberg before that
-
Yeah i was well chuffed, she is building her portfolio and wants to do as much varied stuff as possible. Had a great day milling and by the time i had dinner the video arrived?

Great work Steve. Made a start but got shat on by paypal (I do hate Paypal with a passion ?) Off milling so will get on it this eve
-
That's a lot of cladding we did a crane take down the milled it for the school to use on their buildings. Probally travelled about 200meters
-
Spot on thanks

Sorry slight derail, please could you share or pm details of electric winch- I have slabber and looking at options for manual/powered winch
-
Does a bottle jack need a pivoting top plate? I was told they can fire out otherwise? Not used one-just relaying what I was told
-
Thanks but they need to be pedestrian rather than bridle gates as the latches are different! I think Centrewire are made by IAE? It's a shame about the delivery times as the products are good!
-
Nice, tidy bearers too
-
I have a job putting in some Centrewire pedestrian gates. Centrewire have given me a delivery date of mid July! (ordered end march!) Just wondering if anyone has any 'in stock' I could borrow/replace or buy. Need up to 4 1.2m marlow and one r/h 1.2m Marlow Cheers Kav
-
Cool just let me know email and i’ll fire over anything decent cheers
-
Are iphone/instagram photos good enough quality?
-
Absolutely Steve! Yes I'd be more than happy to pay! If 1 or 2 jobs or a nice bit of timber comes up it would be well worth it!! Cheers
