HI guys, I have just seen some photos of a small hand winch attached to an Alaskan and was wondering if it's worth bothering with - is there an issue keeping the rails flat on the log? Also looks a bit fiddly on and off the log - has anybody used one? What are your thoughts ? cheers Mark

Did you find a home for your beech?

Cheers anyway, the main thing is that someone makes good use of it - I probably wouldn't have time to deal with it til after christmas anyway. All the best, Mark.

Hi, I'm a chainsaw carver from Dorset and I'm going to be doing demo's at a craft fair at Hatfield House on 22-24th November. I was wondering if anyone from that neck of the woods could possibly help with supplying some timber as I have limited space in my van and don't want to carry the extra weight all the way from Dorset on top of everything else I need to bring. If anyone has any logs-I do a lot of work in beech, oak, chestnut, cherry, cedar, but anything would be appreciated as long as it's not totally green. I'm looking for a few bits around 1-2ft. in diameter, any length from 2-5ft.; basically any manageable sized pieces to do me for 3 days worth of carving demo's. I could collect it on 21st November or make arrangements for delivery straight to Hatfield House. Alternatively, if anyone could point me to a local supplier around the area? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot, Mark.
