  1. Nice mobile Stenner not seen many of them cool bit of kit
  2. Yep that was my thought or actually it was F##k it
  3. Hi Jon if I had a tow bar and a flat trailer no worries but that’s the problem and the timber isn’t worth spending much money on so might just have to tell the tree surgeon who has been paid to remove it that I can’t move the last of it it will probably piss him off but what else can I do
  4. I do hope you all like my blue Mohawk but my chainsaw hat does play havoc with the spikes
  5. Hi Steve it the notless butts I have left to move if I manage to move it you are welcome to some if you want it it’s bloody heavy it took 4 of us to carry a 10/12ft long plank 2and half inch thick , I do find it bonkers that I am willing to give this nice timber away for free to anybody who wants to come and get it I will even help load it .
  6. Hi guys I carve owls if anybody wants one give me a shout Cheers Mark
  7. Hi if you look at the 2nd picture it does not have any nots in the timber it’s from the base of the tree but it does have some nice figuring and almost spalting so worth milling , but hey if I have to ring it up then it will probably end up as fire wood .
  8. Hi managed to get it sorted, I have 2 butt's left to move can anyone help it has to be done by Friday morning at the latest otherwise I will have to ring it up and that will be a shame Thanks Mark
  9. Sorry pics would not load
  10. Hi guys some of the monkey puzzle
  11. Hi guys, bloody hell monkey puzzle is a hard wood to mill and deal with bloody nightmare I am knackered
  12. Hi just finished chainsaw milling one of the bigger butt's, fucking hard work and bloody heavy, most full on day since my accident good fun milling though knackered now though
  13. Hi no not that damp it was standing dead , just off to mill the rest into bits we can move ,more pics to follow
  14. Hear are the smallest 2 butts
  15. Hi guys thought I would give you an update on the monkey puzzle, I am going to collect it early doors Tuesday, our new mateys at our yard are going to help he has a lanky and a 2 tonne trailer , so the plan is to cut it into 10ft ish butts and roll , winch them onto his trailer , the top end bits should be light enough to get in my van as it was standing dead , hopefully take it all in one go will post some pics , hope it don’t bloody rain . Cheers Mark
  16. Oh yeah and wearing a utility belt that would make Batman proud
  17. Hi me and a mate looked into becoming trainers yrs ago and unless something has changed , if you have a chainsaw ticked you are qualified to teach one on one so just find the required notes on what they need and go through it with them then call in an assessor, cross cutting and maintenance is easy , disassemble clean reassemble identify type of chain and file needed sharpen and then cut some logs up .easy
  18. Hi guys I had a go at clamping straight to the plank and nothing happened at all no sparks nothing so clamped to some 6inch nails then off it went , but not getting a consistent result I think I need to re earth my set up , where do you take your earth from . Cheers Mark
  19. Sorry I mean the red one in the photos is that yours
  20. Nice truck ,loud as F##k crash gearbox ace fun to drive I wish I never sold my Militant , someone on hear was saying they know of a matador in Dorset but wouldn’t tell me where it is , is it yours ?

  23. Hi , not sure what he is doing for the walls , I know he is going to try and make bifold doors but that’s a long way off , and no I will not Mill him any bigger beams as when he had a mate with a woodmizer in he would not Mill a small butt for me .Thanks guys as I was just curious , it seems my thinking was about right .
