  1. So guys as I am about to buy a mill on a trailer I have been following what is being said on hear and thought I would do some research and after getting confused by the interweb I rang our local VOSA yard and according to them NO trailer under 3and a half tonnes needs any paper work I also phoned a local trailer supplier and asked them and they also told me no paperwork for under thee and a half tonnes and if you think about it if that changes and all trailers need paperwork then every little tat trailer knocked up in a shed would need it ,bloody good earner for the new trailer testing station. Thanks Mark
  2. Hi mate the thing about gun stock is that is the very very best British walnut that can be found that makes the top money some stock makers will try and find big root stock or burr and for that you are talking thousands and then you need the rest of the gun but just for an average gun should be cool ,hope you make some cash Cheers Mark

  18. 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
  19. 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
  20. 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
  21. 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
