  14. We had a busy day Thursday with my smaller of the two burr oaks. I knew when I felled it there was a change in saw dust out of the 070, and sure enough a hole in my butt! Caused by honey fungus But we got around 5 decent outer boards and a couple of lovely small 2.5ft side table burr slabs!! Got a big oak to mill next few weeks, oversized for the big bar so will need to take some sides off. Two sections @4ft and a bit!

  22. I like rustic looking stuff, so not worried too much. But yes smaller boards thicknessed according to needs is the way forward. Will, thanks for the offer, no dice though no room. Should of sold it to Ollie before he moved to Wales ;-)
  23. Why not use one of those big floor planers\ sanders? If needed I've got a friend who has a 24" planer, but that ain't much help for my 900mm beech boards!!
