  1. Thanks J, good of you to share,9 i would have thought alot of people would want to keep their hints and tips to themselves (hope not). I am becoming more and more interested in milling all the time. From what at first appears to be a rough old bit of waste wood, can produce amazing things. A friend of mine, Gobbypunk on here has started milling and producing good stuff. He milled me 3 window sills from a lump of elm he found in the river Stour local to us!!!! Good stuff J.
  2. I would be suprised if it seized from just 5l of cheap 2 stroke mix, unless of course you mixed it at 50:1 like the hi grade oils.
  3. Thats kind of you to say and you know that you are always welcome here, wether it be for work or to stay.
  4. In poorly times silky saves the day. Been suffering all week and was glad to have Paul around on mon and tues to carry me through. Went back to finish that job yesterday (could anyone id that tree?) And found your lanyard at bottom of birch trees and retrieved yr throw line. oh yeah, and found your gloves!! Pm me your address and i will post them back to you mate.
  5. Good advice to put money to one side as you collect. Easy to get in serious debt quickly as it snowballs out of control.
  6. Only thing i'd say is the text on the doors could be bigger. Apart from that it looks mint with the greenmech.
  7. I know what you mean, before you knew it, it was kicking out time!
  8. haha, paul showing me how to upload pics. Easy as that eh. I liked your backbone vid. Done well to do that in the day mate, good effort.
  9. Hahahaha, you is tryer my friend
  10. Fiskars x27 for me, although gransfors may or may not be better (can't decide), the gransfors is twice the price!!
  11. Was that your bro genset? He was sound bloke. Apologies if my mind elsewhere, i was worried yaffle had gone on, but of course should have known the great man wouldnt do that. Thanks for lift pete, you are true top bloke mate. And that goes for you genset. Regards
  12. I never took any jo, unfortunately. Im sure more will appear in good time
  13. Sorry guys, Silky showing me how to upload photos, apologies.
  14. It does look it to me also, but no harm in saying.
  15. I love trimming hedges with the use of a mewp, so much quicker and you get a much better finish. If the job justifies it, i would use one. Just be careful there kentjames with those 11kv lines, very easy to make a mistake with mewp and long hedge cutter. Keep them in mind all the time. Stay safe bud.
  16. Thanks for the lift home last night Yaffle. Was nice to wake up in my own bed this morn. Great evening last nite and was really good to meet old and new faces. Glad silky and teepeat did not freeze overnite, it really was a cold one!! Look forward to seeing you later Paul. What time are you planning on getting to mine for?
  17. I nail or screw a length of plywood to my wooden ladders, works quite well.
  18. Who is the band and song mistahbenn?
