Hi English Elm is getting quite rare in any decent size and as you said dont know when you will get any more so explain this and charge 150 you could always ask what will happen to them after the wedding maybe you could rent them and then make something else out of them Cheers Mark

Have you looked at the turbosaw swing mill a mate of mine is selling them they are quite expensive but for dimensional timber they are cool and very mobile but for the money you could get a very nice bandmill have a look at them and give me a shout if you want my mates phone number he is near Bath good luck Cheers Mark

Wow he is coool is he made out of one piece I bet he took some moving , wish I could carve like that how long did he take , amazing work , I bet loads of people will sit on him for photos Cheers Mark

Oh come on Matty any tree like that dont deserve to be felled unleess it has to be there are plenty of diseases and parasites attacking our trees , such a shame to see it come down , but as its going to no matter what I bet it will milll up nicely and live on as furniture , I wouldnt mind some boards from it , but still a sad loss to our trees Cheers Mark

Anybody heard the word Kyanize my girlfriend just pointed it out to me from the dictionary its a way to preserve timber by steeping in a corrosive sublimate , not sure what that would entaile so there we go useless fact of the day . Cheers Mark

Is there no way you can just knock the whole thing over , without climbing it at all

Can you not just say to the said matey you would like to mill some of said tree offer him a plank for a shelf and just get on ask him to come and have a go milling maybe he could bring a tractor to help move stuff , I find if you just talk to people most of the time it ends up ok good luck with it Cheers Mark

For a bit kit that big it doesnt look like it will take very wide boards maybe you dont need it to , nice to be able to do 4 sides at once and and moulding ace do show us it working when you get it set up Good lluck with it Cheers Mark
