  1. Nowt wrong with that, music aside :)

     

    Lowering was decent. If you did your step cuts the other way around (top cut first, then bottom) it would prevent logs snapping prematurely and almost floating downstream :)

     

    Lol ha thanks for that, it needed more gap too.....

  2. Watched the first minute, and all I could think was - NO STUBS! And why would you ever compare yourself to Reg???

     

    They're reduced further than what you see on the vid, so only main stems left. So the factory groundsmen can maintain them. And regards Reg I find his vids well edited and very professional.

    Yours aren't too bad either..

  3. So started out with so me 6" square dural mild steel plate and some 1 x 1/2" box section...

    Not lucky enough to own a plasma cutter but a grinder and 6 1mm cutting disc do the job...

    1 Husqvarna crankcase splitter which cost £100 over the counter and covers 346 upwards saws.
