    Leanto

    Hi guys just finishing the lean to for my woodland mill to live in all recycled materials, quite chuffed as thanks where I had my accident
  2. Cool that’s some saw I want one but I bet it’s bloody expensive
  3. Climate change is with us for sure pictures of thin starving polar bears don’t lie never saw pictures like that in my 20,s but our governments refuse to install legislation to even try and do anything about it UN agenda 21 ,geo engineering the use of depleted uranium shells ,what the FUCK are people thinking,the planet will survive but not so sure about society as we know it ,Poverty starvation and homelessness all exist in Britain today the government seems unwilling or unable to do anything about it so therefore we demand the abolition of the dogmatic archaic institutions that try and govern over us Their law has not created order our Anarchy will not create chaos. Thats something I wrote when weighting for an Anarchist news paper many yrs ago seems more relevant now than when I first wrote it ,hope some of you appreciate it Cheers Mark
  4. Cool nice idea we do similar with castle towers and did a big lighthouse that lit up that was cool but it struggled to find waterproof lights at a good price . Cheers Mark
  5. Hi I just picked up a hm130 on a trailer for 3 grand it’s used but a good mill ,I have been given a hydraulic power pack I have a donkey engine so now need a ram and some welding and will have a hydraulic log lift happy days,putting the roof on the new leanto for it to live under so very soon I will be looking for nice saw logs

Thanks Mark

  14. That looks like a nice bit of kit but bet it’s expensive as it’s wood mixer ,I was offered a 4ft wide planer thicknesser by someone on hear a few yrs back but didn’t have the money unfortunately wonder if he still has it , just sorted a deal on a 25 inch thicknesser but can’t have it till November and will need a 3phase converter or genny if anybody has one they don’t want.
  15. Thanks mate , I have just ordered some nylon bushes for the uprights on the saw carriage as it’s quite wobbly only £30 so I think a service and new bushes,bearings,blade then it’s just a learning curve. Thanks Mark

  21. Hi Roy’s yep I used a microwave transformer,but I am on the lookout for a transformer from oil burning central heating as I have been told they are safer the neon transformers there are 2 types and only the one type is any good but can’t remember what one sorry. Cheers Mark
  22. So like quite a lot of you I expect I watch Building Alaska and shows like it ,on a few of them I see them using power tools that are just not available in this country I just seen a chainsaw attachment for a circular saw for cross cutting big beams ,why is it that we can’t buy things like that hear .
