  1. I think we're gonna all have to get used to hexadecimal.
  2. I think most folk here are well versed in the problems of burning unseasoned wood. But a phone box size store where you post logs in will still need a minimum of a year to dry. Thats a long time to wait to have a weeks worth of logs drying if its your only log store. Im sure you sell plenty of them to 'Hobby Burners' who pop a few logs in for special occasions but for anyone burning to heat their home this product will only ever been seen as a quirky gimmick.
  3. Name a year when the hospitals in the UK have not claimed to be on the brink of collapse this time of year? All these Nightingale Hospital's sitting empty as well. I'll take the hyperbole with a pinch of salt when I see them over flooded as well.
  4. Do you live in an area where folk will steal a few chunks of wood?
  5. Calm down Yoda.
  6. They must have big windows.
  7. I like that! Very cool!
  8. Remember to never leave a Torque Wrench loaded for extended periods of time, always wind it down to the minimum setting or you'll get a set in the spring and your readings will be off. I doubt for such an application like setting the tension on a Bandsaw it will affect it that much but if you come to torque down a cylinder head later it could well do.
  9. Surely Billy Big Balls who was all talk about buying a ยฃ20-ยฃ35k Bandsaw Mill is not now in the market for a sub-ยฃ5k โ€œHobbyโ€ Chain Mill is he? ๐Ÿคฃ Maybe with the money saved you can invest in a real chainsaw and get rid of that Toytown Titan of yours? ๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿผ
  10. 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.
  11. 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?
  12. Even after editing you still can't spell you're.
  13. Canโ€™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 donโ€™t even look at the indicator now, just do it all by feel. Does sound like somethings not built right though. [emoji37]
  14. 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.
  15. Some good prices on there.
  16. 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.
  17. I bought some boxes of 34 degree nails for my new DeWalt First Fix. 3300 for ยฃ31 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.
  18. Im gonna say Les, all the way from Wales. (can produce twins dont you know)
  19. Not sure how I missed that word out, but yes, thats what I meant.
  20. 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
  21. 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.
  22. 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. ๐Ÿ˜ฎ
  23. 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.
  24. Thatโ€™s not a Router Sled. This is a Router Sled. [emoji16]
