There should be a new topic on what did you do with your old woodlands mill steel delivery crate, I’ve made mine into a workbench using whatever was lying around, proper solid it turned out too, bit of a pickle where it’s currently at but it’s on the list of things to do ie tidy that patch up.

Bit of flat bar and round tube and ten mins with a mig, need to reduce the height of the handle a touch and will get round to sticking a spare MX Bike grip on at some point. Night and day difference for the better when using the machine.

Any pics of the quick release parts being mentioned??.

Chatting to Chris Les ref some parts and he was mentioning a few things that are being looked at that being one of them. Not sure if it’s gonna be on a different range of machines mind.

I think a few things like electric raise and lower etc might be an option at some point.

Went for the Aberlour in the end, guy was more than happy with that.

Well I did the same but in a cell in the guardroom at pirbright, woke up in the morning to the screaming voice of the provost Colour Sergeant, spent the next 4 hrs being beasted around the barracks with a floor polishing bumper above my head.

Yep it’s bloody hilarious eh many is the time you have asked for explanations and the standard what would you do kind has been used often enough. So what do you see as hilarious now ??, what is the point of mass testing at this stage and why is UCL science now to be disregarded??

Assume, presume ??? Exactly 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️ does it really make any sense at all at this point ??

I’ve read and read and reread data and statistics until I’m sick of it. Not whinging and have carried on as best I can throughout this. As for don’t worry about it if it’s a conspiracy, and let’s stop vaccines for the vulnerable etc that’s just the standard tactic of trying to demean anyone whom has concerns over the reaction or actions taken I regard to this situation. Not so easy to say if you have lost a business or family home. Not wanting to sound like 42 but the mass lateral flow testing rollout rational ??. Please enlighten me as to the value of this exercise. Follow the science is indeed what I thought this was all about. The use of one source of data or modelling predictions has been used multiple times to justify measures taken since the beginning of this. Ie Ferguson’s worst case scenario model. The thing that I found ironic is the questioning of Fristons work !!, I have mentioned on numerous occasions the huge overestimates factually attributed to Ferguson’s modelling on previous issues. Anyone active within the farming community will elaborate on this.

I wonder how the end product would turn out if your often high moisture content off the mill sawdust was used.

I’m not sure what options are available engine wise on the 130 max but I’m sure Chris at woodlands would keep you right. Regards is the extra cost worth it 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️, I guess it’s how much you want to spend really, 5 ish buys the 130 max, not sure what the logosol goes out at but as with all things you can just keep going up and up in price etc. I’d say if you can load yourself and use said machine to assist with handling whilst on the mill, combine that with securing it to a good solid base you’d not go far wrong with the 130 max. A decent bit of engineering nouse and you could easily make some worthwhile mods to make like easier, good mate of mine has ordered the same mill and has spent time on my 130 he has a list of mods that he is gonna attempt once it’s all set up but he does have the advantage of a very well equipped workshop.

The chilling truth is we may never be permitted to return to normality APPLE.NEWS Anyone turning on their television after returning home from an unseasonably chilly bank holiday... I truly hope he is wrong but I fear a lot of what he says is all happening around us in plain sight. We have always been told follow the science, couple of questions I have for the members whom have advocated that path. 1, what is the point of the dishing out of the lateral flow tests on the scale proposed??. 2, science is now stating we are approaching herd immunity yet Hancock is choosing to totally ignore that fact. The more I look at the headlines the more I see the arguments for any of this making sense literally falling apart.

You are correct Les, Covid is causing significant issues too in regards build time at the moment.

I’d take the 3 phase option all day if I had it and was going the static route. I’ve ran a 130 set up for mobile use for a while and it’s been a great bit of kit. Mates just ordered a 130 max that’s gonna be set up in the static mode so the opportunity for comparison should be interesting. I’ve seen Andy’s Logosol and he’s right in saying it’s a well thought out and engineered bit of kit.

Would you be going got a static or mobile, 3 phase or petrol ?

Hi All Few pics I’ve been sent of a tree that needs removed and the guy is looking to get some of it milled. He says it’s walnut. Thoughts ??

Thousands of tourists let into the UK as Brits are told to staycation APPLE.NEWS Around 8,000 tourists are arriving in the UK each day, it has been claimed In the industry I primarily work in ( not trees K) at the end of each project there is a sit down wash up meeting covering everything that was done from start to finish, part of that is a lessons learned so next time it can be done better 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️. Weak government and weak opposition is a bad combination.

I’d like to think not, just wondered if anyone had good or bad experiences with a particular insurer.

I have an ifor LM 146 owned from new and the standard of galvanising leaves a lot to be desired in places with visible rusting. I fabbed up an A frame for the back and had that galvanised locally pretty much straight after buying the trailer and the difference is night and day just a couple of years later with the A frame still perfect.

As long as it leads somewhere 👍👍

Hi Looking for someone whom will cover a mobile sawmill for theft and damage etc. I’ve already got public liability etc and arborisk stated they’d only quote for the mill if I had that with them. Any info would be appreciated. Cheers

Nice looking log, should get some nice clean slabs from that.

UK to offer Covid vaccines to Ireland APPLE.NEWS Britain is planning to offer 3.7 million Covid jabs to Ireland, in part to help lift the lockdown in... Nice little read for the UK critics on here.

🙄 Diversity !! lol well I’ll agree for the sake of an easy night.
