  1. If the instructions are given to to the dealer for Pre Sales set up then that’s what they should do no ifs or bits or don’t be an Echo dealer
  2. Hi guys in myself I feel ok but get super knackered quite quick ,but the thought of not making stuff isnt on so a massive down size ,if I can find somewhere for the sawmill to go that would be amazing but all the units to rent round me are stupid expensive ,and like I said if anyone wants to come and have a rummage please do .
  3. Hi Spud I have so much clutter I would be there for 6 months honestly if anyone wants to have a rummage please come and have a go I have lots of small stuff, odd bits and unusual boards , vintage speakers, work benches, steel cupboards and obviously it would be great to get something back on it as I would like to find a small unit and just make small stuff and not sure about the HM130 and the 2 ft planner but will let you all know. Thanks for all your good wishes that means a lot Cheers. Mark
  4. So as a few of you might remember I am loosing my yard and now it looks like I am not well enough to carry on with the big stuff I have been in and out of hospital my kidneys were only working on 20% they said I have Acute Kidney Injury due to a load of IV antibiotics the hospital gave me for a nasty infection in my leg , had to have a kidney biopsy and on strict Light duties only for a few weeks, so closing down and most stuff has to go , big work benches ,pillar drill , loads of boards etc etc
  5. Get the Biggest saw you can and just use it for Milling leave it set up on the mill as much as you can as others have said its a faf ,if I was going to to buy another set up it would be The Panther Mill and an 881 but then you could probaly get a good used or entry level Band Mill for similar money and save your Back .
  6. It does have a value but for some reason it’s just not very popular it’s only a Pine but I have made some nice stuff from it and sold a fair bit but we had the Whole tree and probably have a third left after a good few yrs
  7. So has anyone seen one of these and if so if it was cleaned up what do you think it would be worth
  8. I have an insulated fridge box with an arrowsmith kiln unit in it the box cost me £500 happy to take £450 for the both my mobile is 07449736569 . Cheers Mark
  9. Just been given 3 months to get out of my yard so going to close down store most ofcmy kit and see what happens ,so if anyone wants a bargin come and have a look
  10. Hi I have done plenty of Balls in Cages but never in a stump but if its near me I would for sure
  11. So guys does anyone want screws ,off cuts and just stuff come and have a look happy to just give loads of it away 200 glass bricks I was going to use in a camper conversion big metal cupboard etc etc come and take the lot
  12. Hi Jon ,not sure I think I can find storage for my important kit and to be honest we have so much TAT it would be good to just start again so defo going to find another yard and we have 3/4 people who are up for sharing so all those cast iron feet and gears kitchen cupboard handles that just take up space can go and hopefully we will feel lighter all round ,you have seen how cluttered we are ,so I have mixed feelings and like I said as long as we keep our essential kit a precious stuff the rest can go . So if anyone wants a bargain we have cool metal Vintage Pidgeon hole cupboards £100 each ,all the off cuts can just go for free .We just need to find a farmer with a cheap barn to rent

Cheers. Mark
