Thanks for sharing. Well done for persevering! Looks like a royal PITA. I take it you do find it useful? -
They all end up the same faded worn out colour in the end

Yes big double above cab. Lots to do to the Inside. It's all boarded and Insulated so a good start. Hydraulic ramp on back too for the decking area

Looks like that top has rolled a good way from the stem!

Must have satisfying to cobble that together

Your probably right. I don't do facebook at all or any other social media, I do remember when arbtalk was busier, but still enjoy it as is ( excluding some tedious members who have almost gone away now) . Don't really have anything to compare to. Hpoc.co.uk seems alot slower than it used to be also. Fb sounds balls, from what I hear on here, although slagging off peoples boots does sound pretty tempting.

Not really familiar with the to.ber your using, but certain woods split worse than others. Latch cedar and sequoia are very stable, oak can be bad especially if carved from the round. I guess your climate will dry it out pretty fast as well. After carving try and let it dry slow. Keep in shade, and in cool if possible. Oil can help slow the moisture drying out, but ultimately trapping moisture in to slow drying/reduce cracking, brings its own problems, black staining, mildews etc. Some folk use decking oil, which usually contains antifunguscides etc. Personally I don't like using they chemicals, and not overly keen on the colour of alot of them

Holy smokes. Wonder when it will get here or be reviewed....

Pigeon? My guess anyways

Better get a mod to remove it from the overloaded thread then

What the cuss you lot on about?

The 346 I rebuilt with the snapped cylinder bolt. Just snapped another. Anyone experience this? I am hoping it's just that the cylinder has come loose, rattled about and someone has cranked them right up, causing them the snap. Have bought 4 new bolts, so they should be good. Just wondering if anything else could have caused this?

Unsurprising you were correct. Sticky/bend metering arm. Changed it for another one I had, adjusted height. Working well now.

Looks bad, don't reckon it was as heavy as it looks. Had just shy of 2'' off the bump stops.
