  1. Sorry to hear that John, hope you get yourself sorted out quickly. Where about in the Vale were the burglaries? Just last night I had a group of people snooping around the fence of our yard.
  2. Dalynn on here does processor hire and he's based somewhere in South Wales so might be able to come to you. PM me if you need his number as i dont think he's been online for a while.
  3. At least they can hang there washing up on it
  4. Ply board ramp off the back and slide the bags off.
  5. Two men are drinking in a bar at the top of the Empire State Building. One turns to the other and says: "You know last week I discovered that if you jump from the top of this building- by the time you fall to the 10th floor, the winds around the building are so intense that they carry you around the building and back into the window." The bartender just shakes his head in disapproval while wiping the bar. The 2nd Man says: "What are you a nut? There is no way in heck that could happen." 1st Man: "No, it's true let me prove it to you." So he gets up from the bar, jumps over the balcony, and careens to the street below. When he passes the 10th floor, the high wind whips him around the building and back into the 10th floor window and he takes the elevator back up to the bar. The 2nd Man tells him: "You know I saw that with my own eyes, but that must have been a one time fluke." 1st Man: "No, I'll prove it again" and again he jumps and hurtles toward the street where the 10th floor wind gently carries him around the building and into the window. Once upstairs he urges his fellow drinker to try it. 2nd Man: "Well what the heck, it works, I'll try it." So he jumps over the balcony, plunges downward, passes the 11th, 10th, 9th, 8th floors and hits the pavement with a 'splat.' Back upstairs the Bartender turns to the other drinker: "You know, Superman, you're a real when you're pissed!."
  6. Here's another goat related video to make everyone have a daily smile. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AWvefaN8USk]Crazy Baby Goat! Back Flips off Other Goats! - YouTube[/ame]
  7. Yer the fire is bit of a strange one, its called Oak Fire England but I cant find anything similar to it on the net and cant find spares . I just looked at the colour of the wall and in the photo it does look a bit weird, but looks fine to me on the wall at the minute Hopefully with your input the room look a lot tidier
  8. I was hoping to get Steve (se7enthdevil) to create some nice pieces for our new living room but due to the van going kaput a few weeks ago I can not afford them for a few months. So I decided to improvise for a while Anybody else got any good improvisation?
  9. Looks like its been down a while, if that was sycamore I would have thought it would have turned to mush. So I would say beech.
  10. Yes I would be more tempted to buy one in especially if an employee is going to use it, as for companies to buy from, I would recommend Riko, I have the Riko A11and its been great. They have a large selection of machines, well built, and have great reviews on their machines on this site.
  11. And remember if your processor has a large splitting bay (I know you can split up to 75cm in some processors) you can chuck in 3 25cm logs for extra efficiency
  12. For splitting arb waste I tend to use the single blade for larger rings as the cycle speed becomes quite slow on the 4 way blade if your trying to split anything that is knotty, and wobbly grained. For the processor I would definately have a 4 way or 6 way on there. Cheers Sam
  13. Split the big rings into 10" rough blocks on the splitter, put the blocks into the processor to be split into firewood size logs and use the conveyor put them into a bag. Otherwise go slowly and patiently at them all with a big splitter.
  14. Agree with this. The Showa gloves are more expensive but they do last considerably longer.
  15. Great cheers Alec and Steve. Steve Ill drop you a PM
  16. I have had a look on ebay and there is a few nice ones on there. Thought I would see if anyone did them on here. Help out a fellow Arbtalker.
  17. Hey, I am looking to buy a wooden TV table, just wondering if anyone is making them and whether you could show me some pics of them. Thank you
  18. Man cuts arm to bone with chainsaw but is refused treatment as he wasn't registered | Mail Online Pretty bad regarding how the GP's acted but how he managed to cut his arm while using the saw I will never know.
  19. Only African wood I know, is it Padauk (Pterocarpus soyauxii, I googled this part )
  20. Found this clip a Youtube and thought I would share it on hear as I found it quite interesting. Sorry if its been put up before. Any thoughts on the next stage of harvesters/forwarders? Perhaps fully automated is the next stage.
  21. Just from looking at your avatar there are plenty of keywords there that you can use.
  22. Had to many smack breaks this one :laugh1:
  23. The last time I spoken with one of the big harvesters he was saying the softwood firewood is going for £45 a tonne in sunny South Wales :thumbdown:
