  10. Hi guys I sometimes watch like Building Alaska , swamp loggers etc and watching how most tree workers fell trees , I have noticed that they do the felling cut quite different than we do a lot of their felling cuts seem to come in at a slight downward angle ,and we tend to come straight in flat , we’ll most of the time , so I was just wondering why it seems so different. Cheers Mark
  11. Hi guys it sold at the Bath and West Show for a grand but it didn’t look that good as it had picked up some marks and scratches so we sanded and re oiled before we delivered it
  12. Hi Steve , I find with Danish Oil after a few coats it kinda builds up a surface layer that can rub/chip off where as Teak Oil seems to penetrate and not leave a surface layer ,one time Rustins Danish Oil took like 2 weeks to dry so not good experience with Danish Oil
  13. Hi I used Teak Oil to finish it with we share the big workshop with a couple of others , and we are more than happy to share if anybody needs a big space for a project just ask
  14. Hi the back is sort of half lapped into the ends so there are no screws just pegs in the seat I will take some pics from the back tomorrow before I deliver it , so guys put a price on it Thanks Mark
  15. Hi guys the thing I was getting at is one company recommends their teak oil for oak and one doesn’t ,it’s bonkers , sorry Steve I just don’t like danish oil
  16. Hi no not WRC ends but Cedar of Lebanon ,Looking for more if anyone has any .
  17. Hi guys hear is a massive bench made from Cedar of Lebanon it's 3 and a bit mtrs long hope you all like it Cheers Mark
  18. So just getting ready to oil a big bench that I will post some pictures of soon, I had a bottle of teak oil with a little bit left so baught some more this morning and just mixing them together and my girlfriend notices that one one label it says ideal for Oak products and on the other label it says not suitable for Oak products so I have never had an issue when using teak oil on Oak, init bonkers one make says good for Oak and another says not good, just thought I would share my observations Cheers Mark
  19. That’s cool I like that a lot but no good for my blue mohawk
  20. Hi Steve just waiting for the perspective client to get in touch and will let you know if there is any going spare
  21. No sure I got the spelling right but hey, I may have some to mill and make some furniture out of I have never had any so does it last outside is the most important question any other info as always very much appreciated Thanks Mark
  22. What a shame they just don’t make tennon saws like that any more but they look a bit far gone .
  23. Hi Spud there was defo a small puddle of oil under the saw ,I rang Honey Brothers and spoke to a guy in the workshop and he told me it’s prob normal to leak a bit of oil but my other 880 that was stolen never had a puddle of oil under it but some of my other saws seem to weep a bit of oil as the shelf I keep them on is oily , I am at the Bath and West show this week so next week I will take some photos and hopefully you and everyone else can advise me if I need to have it looked at , Thanks have a good bank holiday
