    So Fed Up

    Logged On replied to jennie's topic in General chat

    Or this...^^^^ I know of a plant / machine trainer that near enough lived down at that new billion pound container port, training people on all the gear there... Earned that much, he paid for a house in CASH on his return!!!

    Can't see the total lean angle, but what about the cars on the other side of the road, would they have been hit if the tree came down too???

    Horses? Diversify? With a this rain / climate change, how about buying a digger and trailer and go about the farms etc doing ditch and drainage work? One guy round here is run off his feet YEAR ROUND doing just that... And with you saying you have an old injury, it's not heavy work really....

    I'd use auger bits for that size hole... FIL uses a 2 stroke engine powered auger drill for doing similar (or even bigger) holes when repairing the quayside decking etc at Blyth Harbour.....

    My poem.... If it's seasoned... It'll burn!!!

    +1, Must be a Davison thing... Especially around chainsaws / 'instant injury tools'.... Same goes for around farm machinery.....

    Not had experience with them, but after seeing videos on YouTube, I wouldn't touch one!

    Where / who they from, as they sound like quite a small crate???

    What size crate, and how 'neat' are they stacked in the crate. Makes a big difference....

    They don't bend either.....

    Looks like the same splitter as ours, except that looks heavily modified... Really like the 'cage' at the top, where the knife returns into, helps with releasing jams... As that's what ours needs...

    Just be careful with what size tractor you have on.... 'Too much power can corrupt'..... Our processor's powered by a 205hp Case. You can slow the speed of the blade cutting with an adjustable knob (fair enough), but it still catches me out sometimes, and so you're running for the PTO stop button....

    Many of the pallets we get are 14' x 10' roughly... Usually use a chainsaw, but after being informed of those dismantling bars, they look way easier than having to swing a saw and avoid nails while doing it....

    Brilliant Adam... Going to pass on info to the boss...

    Still not got one.... Never seen them in the shops round here either anyway....

    Cooper AT3's here too. Was recommended them by a work mate, who has them on a Hilux... He's not shy with his right foot either, and yet still managed a good 50k+ miles out of them too....

    Sounds like the first ever load of hardwood we got too... All elm, and all over 26 inches in diameter! Yet each bit was only about 4 foot long.... Our saw just laughed at it, so had to borrow a monster saw to get it ringed down...

    A customer wants the wood for outside fire pits at his restaurant .... And I burn the pallet wood too in our multi fuel... When it's time to clean out, I've got a big magnet that I run through the ash before cleaning. The ash then goes on the garden and into the chicken run without the worry of the nails....

    Like manhole covers too!!!

    If you've given the wood 'time' to season, like you said, been under cover for a few years... The moisture content should be fine. We find ours goes up and down a bit due to the weather outside, even though it's covered too... So, if you've seasoned you wood, you should be fine....

    Been cutting NOWT! The sleet / snow and rain has arrived.... Going to Hexham Fireworks tonight too....

    The blocks are NOT the pressd chip type blocks, but proper wood 'cubes'... I say 'pallets' though, but they've actually been packing crates from the Nissan factory. They carried the wings, bonnets, doors, boots etc. Any large panel type sections. So they've been really 'made to measure'..... Any idea the cost of those Terrasaur blades, looks a possible option...??

    Which is what you then want isn't it - habitable habitat for wildlife??
