Can you build right to the fence line in England? I’m sure that in Scotland you have to build 1m back.

It’s about as native as Welshmen preferring women over sheep. 🤣🤣🤣

Especially if you’re paying 🤣

Not really. But then so much of our laws seem insignificant when viewed with such a limited perspective. Planning permission for example, is putting up a 6’ fence at the front of my property such a crime? When you look at the disgusting mess other travels leave in their wake and the crime that seems to follow them perhaps in the grand scheme of things it’s just as well it’s as regulated as it is, which is not very much.

I’m totally knackered now though. Turning 30-32” Oak logs on my Tod is no fun. The Cedars nice though. Smells amazing. What course are you on?

It’s all for the same customer. Dunno what the Lime is for to be honest. I think they thought it was Oak. 🤣 They had so many trees come down in last years storms. They are currently building a very impressive Pool House and the Oak is supposedly going in there. The Cedar is for the Sauna and decking. Some serious money getting pumped in.

Nice day out milling Oak, Cedar and Lime. Left the mill there and will do another day milling Cedar again. Really maxed out the mill on the Oak.

Give it up Eggs. You’ve posted up about getting turfed out to garner what I can only guess is sympathy only to evade direct questions in a cryptic way to hide the fact you’re living illegally and fiddling the system. Well, I think you’ve found the level of sympathy you’re gonna get already. 🤣 What goes around comes around Eggs…..

I’ve found Gyppo’s tend to get moved on sooner or later.

Perhaps they’re just trial fitting it?

We had to replace multiple PCBs with ours. Ended up sticking in an Esse Ironheart. Much better.

You’ve just contradicted yourself there. If he’s not abusing his Stove like you indicate you are then he must be burning shit wood. 🤷🏻‍♂️🙄

You need to buy a bandsaw and make your own. 🤣 If you’re struggling to find a supplier why not just run some timber through your table saw?

Its an intended distraction from far bigger issues yet we should be angry at such matters that indicate a steady decline in our society.

Hello, a location would help a lot.

Id hardly say he was deluded.....

Yet another case for 'trusting the Science'. Undercover footage reveals Pfizer is exploring manipulating COVID to make it 'more potent' | Daily Mail Online WWW.DAILYMAIL.CO.UK Project Veritas released a new video that shows alleged Pfizer executive Jordon Trishton Walker revealing that the company is exploring a way to mutate COVID in order to create more... 🙄

What a shame. Seems like a really nice guy. Is filling down at the angle he does a couple of times in the first video a popular technique? I dont think Ive seen that done before. Whats the benefits?

I'll certainly keep that advice in mind for the future. The guys not replied so I guess he's no longer interested. My Plan was to mill 6-9 beams at the same time since I would be milling the log/s the same day and let him take his pick. The remaining ones (if bowed) would go to the bottom of a stack and be left to dry and hopefully straighten as they do so with some weight on top. If they did not then Id cut them down for other projects.

I think the issue is they could bend like a banana. You'd end up with a 2 foot stump if you tried to plane that out.

Registered or built? Can you find the Build date from the Vin or any other paperwork? For example I know the build date and build plant from the Fender Tag on my Truck. I believe that if you can prove it was built on a certain date thats obviously earlier than the registration date you can go off of that. Another example, I know of some 1973 Plymouth Barracuda's that where known as the 'Kingston 'Cuda's' Built in the US for export to a Dealer in Gran Canaria and for whatever reason remained unsold. A Dealer in the UK, based in Kingston bought them all, shipped them back to the UK and they sold slowly, the last one was not sold until 1982! So Going by the registration date it was not eligible for Tax and MOT exemption till last year. Worth looking into.

If it’s still a log then I’ll hazard a guess the MC is still over 40%. I’m sure it will mill just fine.

Have you thought of pulling down the Plasterboard and investigating the issue properly? Are all the Bedroom walls aligned on the same wall? Potentially an issue outside?

Define a 'slow burn'. I'll assume being so new they will have all the new anti-slumber gubbins attached stopping them going into a full slumber but regular 'slow burning' will not be helping matters IMO. Id also look to mix in some softwood with your hard. Ash and Beech are great for long slow burns but softwood will burn nice and hot. Id recommend burning that problematic stove hot and hard for a few days and see if that clears your issues. Then Id not 'slow burn' them nearly as much.

Do you use a moisture meter on your firewood? Even if you do its worth re-splitting a piece you intend to put in the Stove and re-measure to get an accurate reading of the actual MC of the wood you're putting in your Stove. It certainly looks like you're getting a build up of Tar in there. Could it be that you're slumbering the smaller stove more? Do you ever let the Stove get up to a good roar to help clear the flue out? My Stove manufacturer recommends a 20 minute high temp burn twice a day to keep everything clean. Is one stove older then the other? The bigger stove might be getting a more efficient burn and therefore not facing the same tar/creosote issues. Whats the positioning of each Stove? Both on Ground floor level? One upstairs and potentially a shorter Flue and therefore less draw? Prevailing wind direction and obstructions from the house or trees etc. I dont tend to put much trust in Sweeps either. They seem to be in and out fairly fast. Running up your own brush after and spending some extra time on it could well result in a better clean.
