  1. If you are down to say 15% on the meter just take the boards indoors if you can a let them slowly finish off drying they will be atuned to your house that way if you dont have the space its either carry on with air dry or find a kiln ,vacume kilns are cool but not many around

  3. Yeah we used to do loads of craft fairs with my carvings and benches etc its bloody hard work some shows you dont sell anything and others you do ok but since covid we found people are just not buying much at shows galleries and shops want like half of what it sells for ,Marketplace is ok or go roadside get a genny and a ground sheet and find a nice layby ,I would get a carving bar though if you are wanting to have a propper go at carving the difference you sill notice will be mad , Rob D at Chainsaw Bars UK will sort you out with a carving bar and chain and there are loads of how to vids on line Ryan somebody he is an american he was a judge on that carving comp on the tv if you want to chat give me a shout Cheers.

  9. Its with a heavy heart that am going to sell my mill I just dont think I will set up another yard ,fracturing my spine and this auto imune thing I now have I just dont think dealing with big slabs will do me any good so anyway thought I would offer to you lot first ,Its not got many hrs on the clock always looked after it ,got 8/10 ripper 37's to go with it ,spare guide bearings if I can find them there isnt any point in it just sitting in a shed so 3 grand is the price no haggling its a good machine thats been looked after also have a static 3phase converter thats done hardly any work and thats £800 its the biggest Transwave used to make they dont make them that big any more my mobile is 0744973656 Cheers.

  10. Hi I will take some photos next week when I am next at my storage ,and I know I got it a few yrs ago but its always been in a lean to and had a cover over it when not in use I always looked after it and yeah it has less than 20hrs on the clock and ripper 37's are around £400 so I think £3500
  11. Hi everyone ,so thinking about selling my mill even though I dont want to ,my health isnt the best fractured my spine before christmas so lifting big slabs is out ,lost our yard and everything is in storage ,I love sawmilling but at almost 60yrs old setting up another yard ,I would need lifting kit like a forklift ,yards are so expensive around us so yeah as much as I dont want to sell it I think its prob the best idea if I can sell most of the Mahagony and Utile I have it would give me enough cash to buy a nice classic Bus or Truck to convert and do some travelling , so Whats it worth its next to brand new hasnt got 20hrs on the clock and I have 6/8 ripper 37's they do have some surface rust but are still brand new looking on line a new HM130 Max static is £4,198 so what do you guys think less than 20hrs on the clock and bands got to be £3750 ,as always looking forward to seeing what you think. Cheers. Gobby Punk
  12. Hi I have the Woodland mills hm130 max and it’s an ace machine the only downside is you can’t easily ad hydrolcis like the Norwood but hey if you’re a handy bloke I am sure you could like I said I love my mill
  13. Just relax read up practice and you will get there ,I failed the first time but I had 10 teeth out the day before 😂😊
  14. 2 ladders is not as much of a ball ache as you might think I have done it a few times just ease the mill over the join and away to go ,good luck with it
  15. Hi I will take some tomorrow
