    Quins .

    Notice you won the tickets to Wembley stubby:thumbup1: Long drive but you,ll enjoy every minute:thumbup1:
  2. Just to derail my own thread, but the HARDEST (as in to cut) was a block that the sawmill wouldn't touch was African ironwood. I say block because apparently it was cut when green in to a block and was used as a stabiliser on the old sailing ships to stop the cargo going all over the place in high winds, nothing would cut it.
  3. :laugh1: Postage only?
  4. is it hornbeam paul?
  5. STUBBY: tried to reply to your message , but it wouldn't work? but yeah bored basically.
  6. Showing your age their mate:laugh1:
  7. Exactly:thumbup1:
  8. In your experience what is the heaviest wood?, I always found hornbeam the heaviest.
  9. Split it while its green, can be a right sod to split when seasoned
  10. nice bit of kit, and not the usual demo (straight softwood) All that for under a grand?
  11. Compared to others they are uncomfortable and you feel every bump in the road. But as a work vehicle you can depend on , nothing beats them.
  12. I think it depends what you want the truck for, if your looking for an ultra reliable work horse that you can depend on: hilux all the way. I take mine up to 350,000 miles and in their life they will probably need a set of batteries,a rear wheel bearing and maybe a radiator ,oh yeah and countless fog light switches. And that's if your unlucky.
  13. My son has designed a few web sites. [email protected]
  14. I think transport would kill it:laugh1: I think we,ve had our winter (all 2 weeks of it)
  15. Ive had a hilux in various mk,s since 1990 and wouldn't touch anything else. In my opinion they are worth the extra money as they keep their selling value, as you,ve found out. £5k should get you a very decent mk4 and a half decent mk5
  16. Do you want to buy some logs mate??
  17. Hope not , cant find mine in any emails. Not overly bothered though as I couldn't win an argument let alone the arb raffle.
  18. At least £7500, maybe not as much as last year, but that's still a great amount to a deserving charity. Well done steve:thumbup1:
  19. That's brilliant:thumbup1:
  20. Vertical ,petrol av11. Had it around 18 months, very few pieces of wood it wont split. When I bought it I took some really knotty bits of wood with me and it split them no problem. I think they are selling around £1900 now.
  21. RIKO, and they advertise on here. Welcome to come and demo mine if your anywhere near Bedfordshire.
  22. "postage is high due to the weight of the kit" why not offer collection as well ?
  23. Agree I thought it was a d cab hilux, alright for nought though:thumbup1: the only tip ive had is "get off my land and never ever darken my doorstep again"
  24. Why?
