  3. Thanks guys, these benches I make are all just knocked up depending on what material I have I usually do the two sides first and then link them up with the long bits, making sure the seat height , is correct, and the seat should lean back just enough so it's comfortable whilst not tipping over I have got a set of rounding planes and Tennon Cutters, but you wouldn't won't to use it on these as its seasoned yew, with bark removed and sanded, each one comes out different
  4. cool,where from? any pics, keep people posted on your thoughts as you progress,nice one
  5. hi guys I fix them with index screws that pull up tight, then plug with plugs from the same wood, on the seats I sometimes use different type plugs to show contrast, this bench sold before xmas as a present for a mates wife, (cheers rob)
  6. and there at the top of this page was a banner answering my question and yours, the woodland mill is from £2599 guessing this is basic electric model ,,
  7. shouldnt think so,no idea how much the woodlands mill is, but a lucsas is around the £15k mark new for the 8" great bit of kit though,,
  8. I am cutting some over grown hazel at the moment ,and have done on and off for 20 yrs, I store it all stood up under a lean too and then pick at it through out the yr for various craft product, to name a few, reindeer heads/body`s, bird feeders, rustic chair frames, bird houses, turned mushrooms, rustic milled fencing for allotments, now whilst it doesnt last for ever outside like larch or chestnut, it lasts long enough for the purpose it was intended, and at the price I market it at, basically use what you have and experiment! and I do burn some too,
