Planning ahead for next winter now.
-
Id love to build a Rocking Horse. Would not know where to start.
-
Currently building my daughter a bed out of Oak I Milled. I posted it in the Woodcraft forum.
-
I personally read at least 5 books a month. I'll give that book a try, cheers. -
So going by the modern Quarter Sawing above you could have some center slabs quarter sawn?
-
Am I wrong in thinking any boards through the middle will be true quarter sawn? So you could have two nice 42" Wide middle boards Quarter Sawn.
-
Eh?
-
Maybe £300 worth of Trunk for Milling? Maybe less if its rotten. How much have you been quoted for to have it removed and chipped?
-
Sorry, was buried under a flurry of posts. ? I did read it before though. Completely agree with your assessment. The SNP seem to have their cake and eat it. No matter the outcome in their mind its a clear indication for Independence.

Whats his name? Its not that I dont trust your judgement, its like you said, we see things from a very different perspective. Its all good though.
-
Please stay. it’s good to have differing opinions, I just found that last post quite condescending.
-
Its not 'too easy' at all. Its a clear indication that if people are getting this in benefits then people who earn this as a wage are not themselves rich. But now we have the Tories back in power with a large majority it should be getting slightly more perfect over the next 5 years. Im not sure if you're just musing or actually directing that comment at me, but if you are then your assumptions are quite wrong. Most are, some are not. With a little bit of mental re-framing you might wake up and smell the coffee of reality, but as they say, ignorance is bliss and going by the tripe you just posted you must be in utopia.
-
Doing “pretty well” is not rich though. When there are families on the dole being handed the equivalent and in more than few instances greater then £45k a year can hardly be considered rich. It’s a labelling ploy by the SNP to stir up resentment with those who earn less, or nothing and as a justification to keep taxing anyone who earns an above average wage.
-
It is not a question of scale but one of principle. How you can write that it’s ok for you to try and minimise your tax exposure but a company bigger than your own can’t without a hint of irony is baffling. Practice what you preach before expecting anyone or any entity to follow suit.
-
Is that any different than all the self employed folk on here, yourself included Id imagine? Or do you tell your accountant to not apply for certain things?
-
Really? Something like that and that old would make that money all day long at our local auction, and people come from all over Scotland for it.
-
Its a gassifier I'll be getting as well. Free Logs so cant be bad.
-
Very well put. Nothing will convince the Doomers though.
-
An interesting review of the Esse Ironheart after 10 years of usage by this American Stove retailer.
-
There was a few English on the teams I think?

Scotland are also leading the way in other fields also. The Intelligent Completions and intelligent flow control devices. Petroleum Energy Services, WellDynamics and Red Spider were all Aberdeen Start-ups. They have lead the way in revolutionising the way oil and gas is recovered around the globe. The competitors scrambled to catch up and still run vastly inferior products. I was working along side one competitor last trip and it was laughable how bad their designs where. Of course I reminded them daily.
-
Nice one cheers. Well, no loft insulation, no double glazing but LED lights. Loft is an easy fix, the glazing not such an easy one, it will get done, but when? We're also in an old Stone Farmhouse.

Im still looking at going the Biomass direction if I can save the cash needed before March 2021 when its cut off. Always something creeping up knicking the cash. I'd be going the log route as I'm happy splitting logs and get wood fairly cheap. The System Ive been quoted for has a 2000l buffer and a 25kw Burner, self lighting etc for £18k, but Id have to build my own housing for it. Ie lay a slab and build a shed, might even have to run the power myself, we'll see. Speaking with a Lad off-shore who gets £900 back a quarter for virtually the same system he had some issues with getting the RHI approved due to the lack of insulation in his old house. Did you come across this issue? Would be a kick in the teeth for me to blow 18 large and not get the money back from the Government.

Really looking forward to getting it installed and fired up. The Rayburn currently installed is always on tick-over so the kitchen is not freezing, but not far off it. Will be nice to get a bigger hot water tank installed as well as a Water Booster pump so we can ditch the electric showers and have some real water pressure when showering instead of dancing under the shower head trying to catch the luke warm drizzle. Next Winter will be much cosier.
