    Oh I like it. I have a whole forest of stuff that would just suit that machine, that' why I was interested. As well as being intrigued as to how it cuts it so quick
  2. Peasgood
    How does that work then?

    I thought you was going to say it was on fire!

    Nice one. Sent them a tenner.

    Have any of you got some old blunt Silky blades you would care to donate to me for a project I am thinking of? 300mm Gomtaro preferably but any will do as long as they are not broken. Happy to cover postage plus a few quid for your troubles. Many thanks in advance.

    You make a similar noise either way.

    Not even one post per month for 5 years? You need to participate a bit more than that if you want to influence the site at all.

    In 2013 my apples were a whole month late coming into bud, they might do the same again this year if it goes cold. As a fruit grower I keep a close eye on the apple trees and what they are doing. Mild weather now might well cause them to show signs of movement but any cold and they will go backwards. Have not seen any signs at all of movement on mine yet and I spent the whole of the last two days looking.

    Shall I send him round?

    I spent a small fortune on violin lessons for my son. After 5 years he could play "Twinkle Twinkle", not very well. Wish I got him a guitar instead.

    It is a coffee percolator but without the percolator in it, and it is sat on an old stainless biscuit barrel with some holes cut in it. I use it to boil water rather than to percolate coffee (which it was pretty rubbish at anyway) It works very well, better than a kelly kettle but it does take up a bit more room I guess.

    That is where they have got you. Same for all these training courses and assessments (in all subjects/industries). The way things are going there are going to be more trainers and assessors than workers (if we are not there already) Why don't they fetch in CPC for car drivers?

    Willow

    You don't?

    I would expect rainwater to filter through pallet wrap and still drip on the logs. I t doesn't seal that well to itself, but still better than nothing. Under an overgrown hedge is good. Not sure why but the wind very often whistles through hedges more than a few metres away, and rain is kept off very well. Best possible place for logs apart from under cover in my experience.

    You must have a lot of heat going up your chimney if it gets the stack that hot.

    Willow

    Peasgood replied to Chopsdaly's topic in Firewood forum

    You can't claim willow to be the best wood to burn but it is OK if it is dried. I'm running my house on willow at the mo and it's OK, even hot at times. Surprised to hear it needs drying for 18-24 months cos mine was only cut down 12 months ago and is at 18%. Nothing of mine ever gets much lower, even the furniture in the house is 15%

    Duke of Westminster asked me to do some work for him. I turned him down, said he couldn't afford me.

    You can still buy them new if you are that way inclined. Two-man Cross Cut Saw 4' | Traditional Tools | Woodsmith Experience | Woodsmith Experience. For specialist, handmade, woodworking tools. I have got an old one, never used it and not all that desperate to either. Seen sawing comps with them at forestry show, they were probably quicker than my chainsaw!

    Have to admit, you can get a lot more tractor for your money than buying a 35. They are not a budget tractor.
  22. Peasgood
    Sihl one works for me.
  23. Peasgood
    Got a 35 here, had it from new. Brilliant tractor and still my first choice if it is upto the job. There's a good reason they are a bit pricey.

    I saw it on telly last night. Was probably BBC that showed the Police really battering some poor sod. Admittedly he was firing fireworks at them. It's not the first time either, they did it about 6 years ago

    Does it throw the sawdust around as much as the pic suggests?
