    None of it would have any value to mill except the main trunk. Don't know the diameter of the tree but if the trunk does come down it may be a reasonable saw log. Not good enough photos to tell and you wont be sure till its felled. Assuming it isn't filled with metal. Even if it is a good sawlog you won't get loads for it. Maybe £200 to 400 if you can find the right buyer.

    My dad's got the ms380 and that's not a bad saw. Does it run well. What's the asking price?

    Wouldn't say you need a press but it does make life a hell of a lot easier.

    You would find a lot less of that at a rave than you would your average local nightclub.

    Yes it's all under a roof with a cob wall up the side. We sit out there a lot on the evening and have a fire as it's sheltered and out of the rain. No chimney. Never missed one either. Not sure if it would work better with one but works a treat as is. Regularly cook 15 to 20 pizzas from one burn Tend to burn from about 2pm till 5.30 or so if I have a lot of people to feed. If i only need a couple of pizzas I don't burn for more than an hour. If you cant put a roof over it you can lime render the outside but you will need to leave it for a long time before lighting it.

    Easy to make for next to free. Ours is a large oak log around 3 ft diameter as the Base. Then a load of fire bricks from old storage heaters laid on top as the cooking surface. Get this good and flat. Then make your a door. Seasoned 2" plank cut to an arch top. With a bit of bent branch nailed to it as a handle. Get a load of sand and form the inside of the oven is with it as a guide for your walls, using the door where you want it as part of the former . Then lay cob or bricks as the wall. Building around the former. Leave to set a couple of days them drag out all the sand. Leave 2 weeks to cure. Then cook pizza. Will post some pics of mine over the weekend.

    I'm sure you could hack it off.
  10. muttley9050
    No problem.

    Air filter or choke problem? Only running till its warm. Other than that which is obvious my money is on the carb.

    But what vehicles in b category allow you to tow more than 3.5tonnes?
  13. muttley9050
    As a builder I wish I could get away with only those few tools. By the time you add up approx 8 ton of scaff and batons, a couple dozen acro props a few mixers, tracked mini dumper, forklift , mini digger+ trailer and all the electrical tools like drills impact drivers,plaster whisks and breakers ( just bought a new hilt I te 80, well over a grand) you've got a massive dent in the bank balance This. Except I decided to spend 20k on sawmilling gear and chainsaws to supplement my framing business. Subby tradesmen may have it cheaper but compare that to a Subby groundie or climber who doesn't need that much kit either. As stated the grass is always greener and everybody decides what there willing to work for.

    Can't see a Dyson keeping up with a thicknesser. The hoses and ports are way too narrow.

    I can find a valve ok. Just can't find a plug in this country. I believe that there is a new and old size for the valves and I can only find a plug to fit the old style. Cheers

    Hi all. Just lent my ms391 to someone and they have given it back with a broken decompression valve. I have never used it so I would rather plug it than replace the valve but can't seem to find a plug that says it will fit. Can anyone point me in the right direction please or i may have to just replace the valve as I need it soon. Cheers James

    I like how the stools are all different heights

    Always strikes me as a little dubious. I used them got a short while and apparently I had planted 18 trees.
  21. muttley9050
    Almost ready to kiln this timber now. Any ideas who might be able to do it for me? Cheers James

    I have a lucas mill just the other side of Aylesbury to you. It will fit through a 1200mm gap and will cut just over 20ft lengths. I will pm you my contact details incase you want to take it further. Cheers James

    Hi all. I have been asked to mill a 2ft by 10ft beech in Chiswick with only pedestrian gate access. Gate is off main road and tree is right next to gate. Not really got the time so does any one want to do it?
