    like this one then? .
  5. se7enthdevil
    is there any lump that you've not turned into firewood?

    lignum vitae is whats required for most games. what sort of variation of the game is it as that may affect what the balls should be made out of.

    if the tree is hollow then i agree but if it's more sound than not then milling it would should not be ruled out. you can't deny that the timber out of this one would look stunning...

    seriously though, if you can manage the round trip of 6 hours then you are welcome to come round and see my device so you can copy it if you like. also got plenty of timber you can pick from if you like.

    i'd love to see a picture of the complete set of skittles and balls so i can laugh at them, ahem, whoops sorry i mean admire them of course:lol::lol: where did you get the wood for the balls?

    if you have a whole parcel of trees to convert into boards then yes it is... if you have one log that can be handled fairly easily and you are happy to get used to your mill then probably not.

    once you've done a few you'll wonder how you ever did without it...
  12. se7enthdevil
    agreed, morus it is. which one would it be though?
  13. se7enthdevil
    you can either use calipers and patience or you are welcome to pop over to my workshop and use my gadget to turn them...
  14. se7enthdevil
    if the customer wants it down then at least convince them to get a mobile bandsaw mill in to turn it into boards, they should look stunning... when kiln dried they could recoup a good portion of their cost to fell it in the first place.

    i take it this reply is directed at me. the heating would be very low if it weren't for the fact i live with my mum who feels the cold at 20 degrees... anyway, she pays the bill.
  16. se7enthdevil
    i inherited this from my dad but i am quite happy with the cold as long as i'm doing something. both me and my dad were fine in the lower temperatures it was always other people who are complaining that it's cold when we both thought it is fine. 20 degrees is too much for me.
  17. se7enthdevil
    never been anywhere to get quite that cold. my blood temperature is 2 degrees lower than normal, does this mean that i would be one of the last to get hyperthermic or am i more at risk because i'm closer to that temperature???
  18. se7enthdevil
    that's basicly what i do with all the lumps and chunks i get from people like phil, john and anyone else who drops wood off at my door.
  19. se7enthdevil
    do you mean like this one. [ame]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AnLGpMZROFw[/ame]
  20. se7enthdevil
    justin131 has been kind enough to supply some hollandica but i'll have some paulownia. how much is there?
  21. se7enthdevil
    i do have a bit of q,suber but it is quite spalted and from a small tree so if you have a bit from an unspalted larger specimen then that would be great. any crataegus will do as i have none. i like liquidambar for turning, how much do you have?
  22. se7enthdevil
    yes he has quercus ilex. check out the website and if you have something that is not on the list of botanical names then we'll have it...
  23. se7enthdevil
    can you give me a call about the whitebeam. i've been looking for one for ages and could be very interested. tomorrow afternoon would be ok. 01628666191

    good to see you on board pete, there are loads of useful and helpful people on this site mate, i'm sure there are a couple of plonkers but they are few and far between. by the way if you are ever over my way again my log pile is getting too big and you would be welcome to raid it.
  25. se7enthdevil
    ulmus laevis is one that i'd be interested in yes. bog oak too as i've only ever had a tiny bit for a project and didn't have any left to send to the states. postage may be a problem from croatia though? do you come to the uk at all?
