  3. Only one way to find out... Will only be a small machine, anything remotely log like gets saved....
  4. Small bowl in walnut And some rotten hornbeam
  5. It's a piece of that magnolia I mentioned while on the phone to you the other day I've got a 2" milled slab well seasoned if you'd like it, the rest is thill mixed in withe the I split log pile, time for a sort out I think
  6. I think it may have started life as a tanker of some description, due to the massive springs compared to my other one... It has 3 air-actuated levers on the shelf behind the seats 1 actuated the hydraulic pump.
  7. Damn iPhone, posted it before I finished, can't remember what I was going to say now.
  8. Unlike my other Mk it only ha 2 levers (one for
  9. After almost a year of owning it ive finally had time to get her going and have a play (only due to this weather) topped up the diesel and away she went... 5 minutes of playing with levers and the hiab works fine, as does the 3 point linkage... Just need to figure out which lever does the pto...
  10. Bet you can't guess what wood this is....
  11. A few of my recent bowls Spalted beech Small lime off cut Tulipwood Ashtray in yew (coin for stubbing out) Yew
  12. Major with everything rotten (bonnet, wings,foot plates) db nosecone, no brakes, only runs on two cylinders.... Got rid of it a while ago, think its on ebay now....
  13. Corsican pine, have seen them grow quite large in some situations
  14. Paid £1800 for it, thought that was a good buy at that considering there's minimal setup involved and it is semi-portable.....
  15. The shelter is the next thing to get done, was just easier to get the mill in place with the hiab then get a building up round it.....
  16. It's sat on 8inch of type 1 with sleepers on top, been a bit wet this week... Could always keep the puddle and refer to it as a mill-pond
  17. After 14 months of it sitting on pallets in the yard I've finally got round to putting it together... Bought it off ebay at the end of 2012, just haven't had the time to do anything with it till now. It's a forestor 900 with a pto drive Jut need to get the tables level now....
  18. Briants of Risborough, just outside princess Risborough near Wycombe... This is who I use, very good service there
  19. What would be the best way to mill this? Just through and through? Never get any big sycamore, used to most other timbers. I could quarter it then put it through my forestor... Be the least wasteful method I think.
  20. I have to clear up 2 large sycamore next week, between 42 and 48 inch DBH. Would it be worth me milling these or just ring them up for firewood? (Mobile phone for reference to size) they have about 12foot of clean wood before the first limb
