Hi have a look on BPI Auctions and Bidspotter ,both have liquadtion stuff etc
-
Hi my 880 can be a fussy bitch to start sometimes and you just dont want to flood one I always were a leather glove to start it its bitten me back and almost taken my fingers off ha ha but it sounds like a small 2 stroke motorcycle when going especially when reving it up , I would defo say mine sings not like my carving saw but its defo got its own tune I bet I could tell one going at it down the road ,like others say the colour on the spatk plug is a good tell tale and also check the air filter on my last 880 that got stolen it had the older filter and it would fill up with sawdust quite quickly making the saw a bitch to start the newer ones have a different filter and ad they dont make them any more it could have the older filter it dont take long to unscrew the case and give it a quick clean ,good luck with it and do look after it as they dont mske them any more and I exprect they will be be like rocking horse shit to find . Cheers Mark

gobbypunk replied to Tippin Alaybye's topic in Milling Forum
Hi try woodmizer they have ramps with spring loaded log supports at £80 each they obviously would meed to be retro fitted to the woodlands but I was thinking about getting some -
So guys nobody is interested in buying my woodlands mill I just thought I would ask again before I advertise elsewhere its trailer mounted ,10 bands 5 still in the box ,ramps and a winch and if you want it a hydrolic power pack and donkey engine for making hydrolics £3500 and sorry not a penny less Cheers Mark

Hi so the Mirka sander is F###ing ace hardly any dust and the arbanet sanding discs are cool but I already knew how good the arbanet discs are
-
So I went with the Mirka with its own hoover bloody expensive but got a 3yr warranty going to give it its first go today it says dust free sanding and that will be ace for my COPD also looking for a big dust extractor for my big thicknesser if anyone has one they no longer want
-
Hi Arbcarver have a look a motorcyce lifts I have had one for yrs I retro fitted a wooden top with a post and I use a ratchet strap to secure the work loads of carvers use them about £80 from ebay

So thinking about getting a Merka sander with the Hoover that comes with it but then I spotted a Hoover that works the same but for £60 So the Merka set up is £700 or I could just get the cheaper Hoover and a Makita or Dewalt sander saving as good few quid ,what Sanders does everyone use and how do you rate them. Thanks Mark

Hi I would be interested in some greenheart polishes up amazing ,but it's the only timber my 880 bounced off on my first go at milling it I made a mallet from some and even put the head on the wrong way round and it's still in one piece it's my go to big mallet ,Greenheart comes up dark brown with like a gold flecks it's cool please keep me in mind d for some Thanks Mark
-
So I have a big table top in Sequoia and it has a long narrow crack and It's wanted for Thursday if possible so I have put resin in some bark inclusions on the legs and to save time I was thinking of just putting resin in the crack not a couple of butterflys as they take a while as usual looking forward to your response Cheers Mark
-
Yep I totally agree but when I finish the 2 jobs I am working on at the moment them my order books are empty but a month to 're arrange my workshop and yard and get some milling done will be good but so would some orders
-
People will sill want nice timber and the people with money will just buy nice furniture we will just have to make even stuff
-
Nice looking mill what make is it ,nice elm boards also,I love Elm but just don't see any of it big enough to mill
-
Hi Lea,cool thanks ,I did speak to Chris and he told me he doesn't get asked for second hand mills hardly ever might use gum tree rather than eBay Thanks Mark
-
Um sorry don't know it don't have an hour meter like the new ones but like I said it's now cutting really nice and I would take £3500 for it considering it comes with 10 bands 5 brand new and 5 that will need sharpening I have replaced bushes,bearings and every nut and bolt that has been undone has been replaced with new just getting it ready to repaint I am only selling it as my broken ankle will not let me go tramping round woods and fields doing mobile milling and with making stuff don't really have the time for mobile milling either ,just thought I would give everyone on hear a shout about it before it goes on eBay Cheers Mark
-
Hi sorry to the guys who wanted me to WhatsApp them some photos but got the mobile numbers F**, Ed up and didn't know whos number was who's give me a another call and I'll sort it out hopefully these pictures will be OK
-
Hi so if I can get it to work here are some photos of the mill if you want any more just let me know Cheers Mark
