  1. 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
  2. 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

  8. 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

  11. Hi I would get the granberg one it sits on the bar has a stop so all cutters are the same ,it runs on a 12v battery so you can just run it from your truck , see Chainsaw Bars they will sort you out
