  1. My second time carving here, a great event and great company. 25 carvers, 25 2x1m coastal redwood logs and just 2 &1/2 days
  2. You could check the serial numbers ( if they haven’t been removed), see if it’s on arbsafe or whether husqvarna have it recorded stolen
  3. You’ve not said how big the bear is going to be., or how long it will take you. I did this one in two days but stupidly didn’t account for cleanup ( I normally don’t clear up unless I have to). Needless to say I took a hit on the job and learned a valuable lesson lol.
  4. Found them, the timber for the fort was milled from the hexagonal core. There’s a trap door in the floor of the fort, the only way up is from inside the tree[emoji106]
  5. I’ll try and dig out some pics [emoji106]
  6. Latest piece in cedar
  7. I did a similar thing a few years back. My approach was to mill the outer wood off in slabs, leaving a hexagonal core. The log was then screwed/ bolted back together [emoji106]
  8. ThanksRob, I’ll keep a look out then[emoji108]
  9. Steve, do you know if a rear handle version will follow the launch of this top handle??
  10. Hi Rob is the 27RA ripping chain available yet? Cheers, Si

  12. Thanks Steve, Damage thankfully was isolated just in time to my stock of carving logs, but my carving shed was only 8 ft from the spread! I need to find a policy that will cover me otherwise next time I’ll be wiped out.
  13. I suffered an arson attack last night at the yard, thankfully it was contained before reaching the workshop. My question is, what policies are out there for temporary structures/agricultural structures? My workspace is a timber frame with tin roof. A glorified wood store basically that is securely locked. I’m looking for cover for fire, theft etc. Thanks, Simon
  14. London Wing Fest 2018 is at Stratford Waterside in Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park. I’m heading down from Liverpool to carve a giant chicken for them. Can anyone help or recommend a firm that could supply big diameter logs in Stratford or surrounding areas? Preferred species wrc, cedar, sequoia, cypress, would take leylandii also. Event is at the beginning of August. Thanks in advance, Si
  15. I saw a program last year where they moved a massive block of stone along a carpet of seaweed, it literally glided across!
  16. Hi Lynne, Thanks, I’m based near Liverpool but work can be posted or palleted anywhere if needs be[emoji106] Best to email me for prices, [email protected] Cheers, Simon
  17. Thanks Charlie, Yes please do post some images mate[emoji106]
  18. Not seen it, will have to look out for it
  19. Cheers silky, and so you should lol
