    i think you should leave anything like nipple in pictures in my opinion. natural is better as far as these sort of photos are concerned. is it a model in photo two or just a good looking gal?

    don't cut the lengths up too small... what do you think the amount will weigh? can you say what a small tipper load is in m3.
  3. se7enthdevil
    now that's a proper porker, well done mate. how did long that take in the end?
  4. se7enthdevil
    not sure what a tipper size is can you post a pic or two of the boxwood. is this green or semi seasoned?

    not much sleep last night as it surprised us with thunder an rain for a couple of hours. loudest thunder i've heard in a long while...

    just been going through some pics on my computer and found the process of me turning the porch posts that you can see in my avatar. they were 9" square and 48" long, all planed up by hand with a right angle and and electric hand planer, no heavy machinery was used until i turned it. .

    wish i had that sort of skill mate, as has been said how you turn them with no explosion is astonishing...

    i lucked out to be honest. i saw that lump that looked like it could have been the second berry and put two and two together that's all... i'm nothing without mr google to double check. i'm not bad with my broad leaves and i'm learning lots of others along the way.

    in the third picture down there is a small pinky white bulb berry like structure underneath the ripe berry. this i assumed to be the other berry. i was not 100% sure of the identification as i've never seen anything like it but after putting in plants with black berry's in to google it was the best i could come up with. there appear to be many varieties so there could be one with a single berry. the pink structure around the berry is almost identical so i'm sticking with this guess.

    possibly this stuff Black twinberry •Lonicera involucrata - Biodiversity of the Central Coast

    unlucky mate i bet that would have been enjoyable revenge.

    surely this is the point where you pretend to agree to the thieves £1700 demands (assuming they don't know it's gone) and meet up with the dosh and punch their heads in...

    interesting idea. probably correct too. my bowls were freshly cut (2-3 days old) as they came from the felling process at windsor royal estate.
  15. se7enthdevil
    excellent explanation sir... in log form this seems to be the case but i turned some chestnut bowls leaving the wall 1" thick and they dried withing 6 months. do you think that is because the length of the xylem are mostly very short?

    you go to the website and copy and paste the address in to what you're typing.

    didn't occur to me mate. i thought you wanted to use what you showed me for your own personal use anyway. if your passing i'll take the beech mate. the lignum was a right cock up. the delivered it with a truck that had no tail lift or pallet truck and it weighs about 150kg. the next week they did finally deliver it on a tail lift truck only for me to realise that it was way too big. 12 3/8" was what i was told i was to receive and i got one that is 15" in diameter. it is to be replaced with one that is 12 3/4" which is what the customer needs. i'll let you know when i have it so we can sort out the milling.
  18. se7enthdevil
    hey jon, do you want to go around the country and collect the whole lot mate:lol:
  19. se7enthdevil
    let me know their combined weight and i'll see what it would cost me in courier money. to the nearest kg will do. also the size box they will fit in to.
  20. se7enthdevil
    i don't drive so cant collect. unless you are coming this way then i can't see me getting it. put up some pics and what you want for it. nepia lives in surrey and often brings stuff if he's coming this way so maybe in the future i may be able to buy it. boxwood always splits badly. how split is the laburnum?
  21. se7enthdevil
    depends on the tree really. i've dropped two trees over the road from me as the guys were going to kill themselves, they were using an electric chainsaw. one conifer which was nice ans straight and there was 30' to let it fall in to. topped it, stripped it, dropped it. simple... the other was in the same garden and was a beech looking for the light under a large oak at 45 degrees ans was more of a challenge as the neighbours fence would have been crushed if i had just dropped it. i cut a wedge the opposite side of the fence and as they pulled on a rope i cut in from the other side. both were relatively small trees 15' and 30', common sense should tell you how to chop down a tree and when to call in a pro...

    for good looking wood any wood turner will most likely give it a good home. i get slightly annoyed when you see some really nice bits going for fire wood or get chopped up so small you can only use them for firewood anyway.
  23. se7enthdevil
    cutting it in to two 4' lengths will be fine. i should be able to make a couple of nice bowl out of something that size too.
  24. se7enthdevil
    you're slicing you planks to thin:laugh1:
  25. se7enthdevil
    how long is the stem? if it's sound i'll be interested.
