  1. What do you call a pad sander? Do you mean jusr a random orbital sander. Cheers
  2. I can plane and thickness it with my lucas mill. My new planer attachment should hit the port next week. Then I can plane 6ft wide. I am 100 miles from ipswich though but it's an option if you get stuck.
  3. Not too far from me. I may be interested but pics are a must. Also could you tell me the diameter. I woukd only be interested in the main stem once everything is cleared away. Could you also describe what the access is like too. Cheers James
  4. Milled today. Pretty holey in places. But quite attractive. Will get some better pics when I move the timber to the shed .
  5. I bought some site boards off a company called signsmadeeasy. I told them what info and images I wanted on them , they designed them emailed me a proof then printed them plus two free magnetic signs. Signs are now two years old and have been great. Brilliant company highly recommend them.
  6. I feel let down. I opened this thread thinking it was titled "planting marine ply" . Thought someone had sussed how to grow it.
  7. No. He has now borrowed a trailer and taken them to a static mill. They Identified it. Reckon he would if got some cracking boards out if it.
  8. And the prize goes to . Anyone that said Leylandi. Not the English hardwood he tried to convince me they were.
  9. got some assistance already but your welcome up. Txt me in the morning and ill let you know of were going ahead or not.
  10. It's around 34" down to around 30" at 11ft long We will see. It does look very holey.
  11. I might mill and the two big oaks next to it tomorrow if it isn't torrential again.
  12. Some pics as requested. Not great though sorry
  13. Second osmo top oil. It's great
  14. I use multi plant. Very good
  15. Pics to come tomorrow.
  16. Ok I collected it yesterday. Looks like a nice brown oak but unfortunately it is infested with pin hole borer so it maybe firewood yet. Will play around with it later in the week and get some pictures up. It may be a rather large log for firewood pile. does pin hole borer reduces strength significantly. Might just rip it up into fencing material if the infestation is too bad?
  17. I spray boards with borax if there nice and susceptible to insect attack. But I rarely spray anything on oak as only the sapwood is really at risk and i don't want that anyway.
  18. Tickets bought. How do i find the raffle forum?
  19. Just bolt it to a longer bit if wood and clamp that. Just don't hit the bolts
  20. That's a good price Johnathon
  21. Heard on the radio the other day that since the bag tax tesco issues 80% less bags. Got to be a good thing. I always take the time to visit my butcher as his meat is miles better than any supermarket and his £ 1 hot sausage rolls are off the charts.
  22. You can get gadgets to locate trackers so where ever they are they will be found and removed.
  23. 4k for spares or repairs. He's nuts
