  1. So I just had 2 saws in the shop with new petrol problems and the mateys in the shop were saying that the only surefire way around fuel going stale and jelly like etc is to use an Aspen type fuel but at £20 for 5 lts its expensive so Why is it so expensive I would use it all the time but milling with it would be soooo expensive so what can we do as an industry to make things better .
  2. Shame you are so far away or I would have come and helped but if you already have someone who knows chainsaws then if he has a saw big enough a chineses mill is not that expensive so you could just get one and have a go .
  3. So if you dont mind me asking how much was that box ,as I was offered on very similar bot a whole intackt box with double doors on one end in nice condition delivered to my yard for £550 that kinda looked like a good deal what do you guys think

  6. Its the "very valuable Black Walnut sketch "again I still laugh when I watch that cartoon,back to the green oak furniture if there is enough just make it out of 6x6 peg it all together as long as they dont want to move it it should be ok and look stunning could even put casters on it to move it around hope you get the job and photos of what you make if you do . Cheers. Mark
