    hi guys bought my wife a soup maker for xmas(she wanted it) and have been amazed how simple it is to make instant soup from ingredients which are not only good for you but cheap! as I`ve got an allotment then its going to be very busy,,,this soup is quick and easy, done in 20 mins,,,5mins prep, then the soup maker does the rest, by the time I`ve had a shower,,bingo! have also made leek and potato,,3leeks,2 cloves garlic,2 potatoes,,,lovely jubbly.

    thanks Ian, and james I use the bandsaw as quicker, and whilst not probably as accurate as the router,,the finnish is good enough for my rustic boards, i use the router to put grooves in my meat boards,,,,for the juices

    rob you probably can use your own wood, and yes it might warp a bit, but if its only for your own use it wont matter,,you should see the state of the one I use lol:001_rolleyes:

    ha ha ,,i wonder if you bought mine,,? I sold a DW733,,,and actually found the spare (sharpened) blades the other day,,,do you want them? it is a great machine, but love the robinson, have watched it used by two old sawmills over the last 20 yrs, and finally got my hand on it last yr,,,

    Muddy Yard

    delabodge replied to melvyn's topic in General chat

    scrape off the loose wet stuff first or all the wet mud will rise through the hardcore, I dug ours out and put loads of builders rubble down first to get above the water table, then brought in 60ton of crushed concrete and road plannings, and thats only the start, i did half the yard, and am now getting deliveries from mates of there nail free builders rubble, it looks a mess at first but well worth it,,glad I did it,,,we restrict out cross cutting of logs to a certain area to stop build up of sawdust,,,

    I have two rob,,one I use for planks, a 24" robinson,,,10.hp,,its a beast,,,,and a smaller 10" for dimensioning stock for benches etc,,less agressive,,,both get well looked after, greased and oiled regularly,,, they save so much sanding,,,,
  17. delabodge

    funky,,,,well done,,,

    the boards have been seasoning for over four yrs, I first air dry them outside, then bring them into my cold store(ie back workshop)then move the planks under my workshop bench for a few months as its warmer in there, so basically slowly lowering the moisture content, second stage is to surface plane them to get a flat surface,then wack them through the thicknesser, cut out the boards using a template made from hardboard,then sand,,to about 320 grit, wet the surface to raise the grain(with water)then sand again when dry to 400 grit!,,,not had one split or warp yet, and have made over a hundred last yr,,,,!

    hi mate you need to let people know where abouts you are!!
  21. delabodge
    good tips from Rob D,, hes lucky he has all three options,,,,i have a bandsaw/ and alaskan, and from time to time rent in a lucas,/peterson as rob says its super fast at milling 6x2 etc...I`m sure the alaskan set up would suit if its only for your own use, ie making benches etc,,,,I`d sugest watching them all work first before buying!
  22. delabodge
