Hi thats a dificult one its worth what somebody is willing to pay for it if yoy have to fell it and deal with all the brash then its quite a lot of work before you even get to the milling stage you could offer some of the planks and some fire wood from the stuff thats too small to mill thats where I would start will you have to remove all the arisings

Hi Eggs ,swearing is obligatory when moving heavy things it seems to help ,but now its pouring with rain hear oh well will just get wet
-
my new mill arrived late this afternoon ,packed right in the back of a lorry no forklift so we unload all the other stuff then the pallet is too big for the doors one way and too lo g the other so we ended up cutting up the pallet to get it out of the lorry ,what a shower of shit I spoke with some woman from the company yesterday and she knew the score ,but hey its hear will start building it tomorrow
-
Hi the company is called DB Schekner not sure of the spelling ,they tried on monday to deliver but it took till yesterday and a load of phone calls from me to get it delivered today hopefully they didnt even let me know they had tried to deliver F###ing crap but hey it will be hear today and milling by monday .
-
So the shipping /delivery company is a massive global shipping company ,they tried to deliver my mill in an 18tonne lorry on monday and it was only today they ring me leaving no name or number to ring back so I ended up ringing 6/7 diffrent numbers before somebody rang me back so now its coming tomorrow hopefully

Hi guys I thought I would give it a last chance before it goes on ebay the bloody thing is just in the way now so for sale Kitty mulit machine £300 its a cool bit of kit for somebody with a small space it does have some tooling for the spindle moulder and the instruction book I may be able to help with delivery . Cheers Mark

Hi Thomas ,where to in the country are you if you are close by one of us maybe a visit could work to give you a hand sometimes 2 heads and all did you buy it new if so when
-
Hi yeah same as not sure what band was on my old mill when I bought it but I threw 2/3 bands when I changed over to ripper 37, the tracking defo did my head in at first and then I just sort of got it after a few times adjusting spining the wheels by hand and in the end I just got it and then no problems changing bands but at first there was a F##K lot of swearing ,still no delivery date on my new one even though they arrived on wednesday
-
We have a massive old makita circular saw it cuts 5inch deep and they used to make a plate that would let it run on the track but at the time I found it I didnt buy it now it aint available so I just run it along an 8 ft level
-
Hi Lez yeah it should be with me next week
-
Cool as festool are ace ,but if you go for an expensive sander one day get the mirka
-
F##c sounds like a nightmare,when I first had my hm130 it took me ages to get the tracking right now I am waiting for my hm130 max I hope I dont have any issues,Chris at woodland mills was telling me that the hm130 max comes all tracked in from the factory .
-
Hi thanks yeah I did it yesterday worked a real treat I will take some photos on friday as I am not there till then
-
Hi we have the Makita track saw and its ace ,and I also rate freud blades and a tip I seen somewhere is to use oven cleaner to clean the sticky sap or crud that builds up on a blade,it works fine wire wool and oven cleaner .
