  1. Surely Billy Big Balls who was all talk about buying a £20-£35k Bandsaw Mill is not now in the market for a sub-£5k “Hobby” Chain Mill is he? 🤣 Maybe with the money saved you can invest in a real chainsaw and get rid of that Toytown Titan of yours? 🤦🏼
  2. Even if I like someone a lot there is no way Id be doing a days milling for him for free. It's never free anyway, with the cost of fuel, oil and chain wear Id be paying him for the privilege of doing him a favour.
  3. What was the point of three saws with very limited difference in hp in the same range? What market did they hope to cover doing so?
  4. Even after editing you still can't spell you're.
  5. Can’t you just crank the tension up some more? Add another half turn or a full turn past optimum. When I had wavey cutting with my Logosol this was the official response. I don’t even look at the indicator now, just do it all by feel. Does sound like somethings not built right though. [emoji37]
  6. Just messing Mark. @Johnsond had it build. Cracking bit of kit, just had a trial play on it so far but will hopefully get to spend some more time on it.
  7. Absence makes the heart grow fonder. But yeh, my 17 year old lass was a bit miffed I was coming home at the one time she had a few days off school. Knew there would be chores the missus would let her off of.
  8. I bought some boxes of 34 degree nails for my new DeWalt First Fix. 3300 for £31 plus the vat. Its surprising how fast you go through them though. Can see 28 degree's being an issue as they all seem to be 30-34 degree's.
  9. Im gonna say Les, all the way from Wales. (can produce twins dont you know)
  10. Not sure how I missed that word out, but yes, thats what I meant.
  11. Its certainly been a challenging year. Im very fortunate to have a very supportive missus. Zoom certainly helps with the wee ones. Although I seem to spend 90% of the time looking up their noses as they run around the house goggling with the phone. Well, I have Netflix, Disney+, Amazon, Sky Go and HBO
  12. If its anything like his furniture pics it will just be ripped off the internet. He'll be digging out his favorite John Holmes VHS as we speak.
  13. Im good thanks. Not much to post lately, back in quarantine again. Thats me past 100 days in a hotel room since March, certainly a record for me. 😮
  14. Imagine the thought processes that must be involved to think that boasting about the size and prowess of your genitals, on an Arb Forum, to a happily Woman is somehow a good idea.
  15. That’s not a Router Sled. This is a Router Sled. [emoji16]
  16. Id cut them into 3" chunks if it was me. As others have said Oaks not the best burning on its own and to get a faster drying time and more surface area for in the Firebox to burn them 3" to me would be ideal.
  17. I doubt it would ever get lower, that will be purely down to the ambient MC. Well within the preferred limits though. Most stove manufacturers recommended sub-25 or 26% up till very recently.
  18. Fields filled with them a while back when they where all migrating over. Could throw a net from my back garden and catch a few. I love the idea of Goose and cooked half a dozen but I'm always overwhelming disappointed in the lack of meat on them. Plenty of fat for tatties for months after though.
  19. I like the idea of an insulated Container as well Simon. I'd maybe clad the outside so it looks a bit more presentable.
  20. I seen the wording 'saw frame' seemed as little too ambiguous to me. Well, if its clearly not voiding the warranty I hope to get one in the next few months along with the Panther. Did a few years with my 088 and 48" Chilaskan and loved it, just not loving humping the boards around. But Im gonna get a mates Avant in and will mill at my own small yard more.
