nothing at the moment but i have a couple of motors from record lathes that were from another project that never went ahead. the idea is to make my own slow grinder a bit like this one. the motor runs at 1450 from memory and i just need a couple of different sized pulleys to get the speed down to 600 or there abouts.
-
that's more than i found on google thanks for that. apparently the seller said it was specially made so maybe that's why i can't find a similar one. i bought it delivered for £65, still in its original box. not bad hey.
-
anyone???
-
hi all, does anyone know just how much these grindstones cost new? it's 16" in diameter by 80mm wide with a 5" hole in the middle. i bought it cheap and i just wondered if anyone knew the price brand new? .

i was looking forward to turning this timber. a deal's a deal surely.
-
could it be in the celtis genus?
-
thanks for the offer but i think i'll be going for kiln dried.
-
lovely timber to turn, if it's being felled don't just put it on the log pile.
-
does anyone have any dry 80mm sycamore? 160mm minimum width.
-
not with flowers, my trees are ok but there are many better than me on here. my wood identification is what i'm good at and i think http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/members/lignaterrae.html is the only chap as good or better.
-
it's a flower:lol::lol:
-
i doubt it, it's designed for stone i think.
-
usually people want holly dead fresh so no staining or dulling has taken place. milling as soon as it's felled preserves its whiteness. it can be used as tool handles or anything that needs a hard bit of wood.
-
how soon is asap exactly? what would delivery cost to taplow?
-
i'm guessing cotoneaster.
-
don't over complicate the matter alec, 35.31ft3 (1m3) of timber sold at £35 = £1235.85p:lol: if you need to sell quickly then log it up for a couple of hundred but i'd happily take the time to quintuple that figure...
-
i know this sounds sick but if that happened to me i'd get that tattooed as a permanent ink job.
-
if you decide to drop it off then let me know when you're coming as i'll have to murder my mum the night before because if she sees me getting any more wood i think she'll murder me:lol:
-
if cash is king then you can make more from milled boards as 1m3 of firewood will sell at £100-£120 but a cubic metre of timber at an average of £35ft3 will sell at £1200+. even if you spend a few hundred getting it milled you'll be quids in. i would happily take a mill to an old fart if it would make tree surgeons realise that not all of us are like the old fart...
-
i thought it was an ebay policy that you were not allowed to add VAT to a final price of an auction.
-
those old farts give us a bad name to be fair and once a tree surgeon has dealt with a couple then it tars the rest of us with the same reputation. if they are big enough then they should be milled in my opinion.
-
pic of the bark would help but i think it's a hazel.
-
you can drop it off at my doorstep if you like?
-
yes, i saw something similar on a program called worlds weirdest weather. they were looking at lightning i think and has a bunch of nails put in a bit of pine and pretty much did the same thing. even the presenter said it looked like art, i'd buy it...
-
i've never seen "roughly" spelled like that before.
