i have used shiply in the past but how much are they going to want for a near 400 mile journey?
-
tough, i've already got dibs...
-
sticks those big should always be milled in my opinion. should have some lovely grain in and old thing like that. check for ripple around the base, don't just ring that part up...
-
so was getting a lathe a ploy to have somewhere to go to not hear baby cries??? good luck with the baby mate, hope all goes well.
-

thats £130 for a package 2mx30cmx30cm at about 120kg i'm not spending that sort of dosh. if i can't get it in one piece i'll try to get it cut in half but i thought such a straight bit would be great for milling.
-
or a license, i am epileptic and can not drive... hence my frequent requests for help.

i think it was the weight on top of the length that was the problem. i too have had couriers bring me 8' planks but only up to 30kg. i reckon this would be about 100-120kg.

too big for them...

i'm all for them being reintroduced if it's one that we eradicated years ago, same goes for wolves, brown bear, grey wolf, boar and beaver. if the last two can be reintroduced then why not the others.
-
saw it posted on my brothers facebook page and just had to put it up here.

poly tunnel for keeping my milled timber in?
se7enthdevil replied to kinderscout's topic in General chat
i just use a garden shed with no windows and fairly well insulated from the wind. what sizes have you got milled? -
just found this on you tube and thought i'd share it. made me laugh... .[ame]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gwvzP2JcFtg[/ame]

no rush, he's after a price first.
-
split some and i might be able to tell from the timber.
-
london area and the carving can be on haunches so not 5' long. for a cheaper price it can be smaller at about 12" high x30" long. my mate just wants a carving of a tiger so i said i'd enquire.

once you get yourself going it's not that hard, although it may be more apt to state that it's not too hard to turn, but it's hard to turn well. lets see your first attempts too as most people don't want to put pics of the for anyone else to see but i'll show you mine if you show us yours...

my computer was real slow, i think i would have got there first but it decided to freeze.
