I think its partially because Sycamore grows like weeds. Its everywhere and quite invasive. But if we where to sell it as Maple it loses that negative connotation.

The irony being he posts so much nonsense.

I have to go to Medco in the morning to get the test then one 5-7 days later. But as of last Friday at Midnight anyone entering Norway from a 'Red' Country has to go into quarantine Norwegian or otherwise.

Im not actually sure? I should have thought about that. All came outta the blue to be honest. Knew Id be traveling over this week, and bam! Friday afternoon we get an email stating that from midnight 10 quarantine will be re-introduced. I'll look into that for next trip as clearly this is not going away. The irony is Im in a hotel with regular folk and there is parties booked and I can even go to the bar and order a beer. Seems utterly pointless.

Is the eco-friendly option before or after burning 20 odd liters of petrol not to mention bar and 2 stroke oil milling up the Oak?

Ive never stated it was a hoax. Generally the ones ones that have 'life changing' illnesses are already unwell, unfit and generally unhealthy. Its also worth keeping in mind that correlation does not imply causation. Some say that they have 3rd hand experiance of folk getting C-19 and then discovering its caused X and Y. Since catching C-19 I believe there is a high chance many of these folks already had whatever then claim C-19 caused but it was un-diagnosed until then and potentially C-19's exasperated it or kick-started what was already lingering. . As I mentioned earlier, in England you could have a confirmed case of C-19 die 5 months later from being ran over by a bus and your death would be counted as caused by C-19. Id be interested to see if catching the common Flu induces additional ailments. All this reminds me of the line in the Holy Grail. 'She turned me into a Newt' Its all a load of Pony.

Yeh, the ones you gag on. Well I did, the missus was immune.

We where not offered a blood test unfortunately. Just a through the mail gag test. This was personal choice and not a requirement. But as we where locked down for 2 weeks anyway why not? I wish I had a blood test as if I had antibodies Id get a 6 month exemption from quarantine when back in Norway. I arrived in Stavanger this evening for my 4th isolation. Sick of it.

As I said, any empirical evidence is instantly dismissed and retorted with “someone somewhere is still poorly”. As if that’s an actual argument for this nonsense. It’s a complete crock.

Did you read my first comment? The vast, and I mean vast majority of C-19 deaths are the old and/or infirm who would most likely have died within a very short period of time anyway. Next in line is folk who already had conditions that seriously exasperated the effects of The Big Rona. Yes, some vulnerable people need to consider isolating , the old, the fat and the weak. The vast majority of the population needs to be allowed to get back on with it. Empirical evidence has been cleverly manipulated in such a way that with C-19 it’s now rendered nul and void. But for what it’s worth my daughter caught it coming back from Malta and gave it to the rest of my immediate family. That’s my other 3 daughters, myself and my wife. All confirmed to have it and all isolated for 14 days. Nothing more than a cough for the missus and nothing for the rest of us. It’s all a complete crock.

They where all gonna peg it anyway. In fact Englandshire was counting any deaths, regardless of how they died if they have confirmed C-19 within the last 6 months. It is a crock of sheet.

Last time I had wasps there was a whole wall full of them. When you banged the wall the bloody thing vibrated with the number of them. You could actually see the flying line of them coming in and the line flying out for quite a considerable distance. I suited up with one of these all-in-one white suits, taped up the cuffs and sprayed and sprayed the hole they where coming out with over a series of days. They where super angry and kept on coming in and out. Eventually killed them all though. Id be tempted to put a bin bag, or even a tent over the end and gas the buggers out.

If you're off 1/8" and thats one click of the handle then I'd put money on that being the issue. I'd not worry about it either if you can pass it through a planer in 2 years time. The amount of movement, ie cupping, warping, cracking you'll be getting during the drying process 3mm will be neither here nor there.

Looks like a nice piece. Whats it reclaimed from? Is the last pic of it set in resin? How thick are they?

Im yet to put a coat on. The missus has been plastering around it and painting the walls. Will make a start tomorrow.

Yeh, kinda like that. This is mine.

A mate has a good Oregon one that he uses for his 404 harvester chains. I used to sharpen my 48" chains on it til I bought the 12v Grandberg one. It was great and very easy to avoid case hardening the chain by just taking a slight kiss off the teeth. If you hit metal and need to take more meat off the teeth then just do so bit by bit. Common sense stuff really.

You'd think the Farmer would have mentioned that when the Op called him about the Oak removal?

40-70kg is quite light really. Asmall 2 wheeled cart would handle that easily. Easy to make as well, just a couple of Trailer wheels, an axle and a sheet of Ply etc on the top. I have something similar I got for nothing that carts my beams around with ease.

Having looked into it a bit it seems like the RHI payments for a single home use are not related to fuel consumption. I could be wrong though? It seems like I’d get £12,000 back over 7 years, on a system that would cost £20-23,000.

Sounds like you’ve got a cracking set up! Well jealous. I can see how what you’ve set up will work when you’re providing heat for three households but bring it will just be for my home I could not justify the huge outlay to emulate what you’ve done.

I swear by Danish Oil. I've just installed a mandle in my daughters bedroom thats what I'll be using.

There's enough busybodies out there that's for sure. Advertise on FB or whatever and Im sure they will come creeping outta the woodwork reporting folk. Ive also noticed that to get the RHI for a new Log Burner you have to buy your logs from a Woodsure supplier. Not sure how they police that but I assume you have to provide reciepts to prove you're buying them to get your cash back. Thats kinda scuppered my plans for that unless there is a way around it? I must have anout 50m3 of logs split ready for the instalation next year and if I cant use them then I'll not bother and just keep burning them in the Stove/s and the Ironheart when I come to install that.

Only if selling under 2m3. You can still sell unseasoned logs to the customer after Feb 2021 above 2m3 legally.
