I used to think the same but without the machinery to get such trees roadside and then home it’s simply not worth the hassle. It’s actually cheaper to pay the £60-80 a ton roadside prices.

Cant they just jack it up and put something like strong boys in place and replace the bottom boards? Imagine taking them for £3k and not even install gutters? Fools and their money and all that

Why does the Splitter need to run off a PTO? Why not a petrol powered Splitter that has its own tow hitch? Mine is 22T

Its my brothers build so Im not 100% sure? I asked him if he added Lime to the mix but he said no, I will be unless there is a good reason not to-He normally has a layer of insulation followed by chicken wire to secure then a render but I do not see the point with the fire bricks, regular bricks maybe, with the test fire and further larger fires there was very little heat loss We picked up several hundred tapered fire bricks that came from some kind of kiln, perfect for this application I think? The dome was created with an exercise ball then paper mache. Then plaster over the Paper mache.

This is my brothers 3rd Pizza oven build. We’ll be starting mine this summer. They work very well. This is a previous build

Now that we can agree on! Imagine our political leaders, regardless of their affiliation or in power or not where held accountable for their actions? I mean properly held accountable, French revolution style 😁

Where you planning on making a reply Eggs or do you still have the morning shakes?

I wonder if our resident tax Dodger will be as vocal in calling for Rayner and Starmers head as he is for the Tories? Im very curious to see what excuses he comes up with this time 😁 Labour's lockdown lies: Angela Rayner WAS at Keir Starmer's 'beergate' event despite denying it | Daily Mail Online WWW.DAILYMAIL.CO.UK Labour acknowledged that Angela Rayner was also at the event on April 30 last year at which Sir Keir was filmed...

You get what you pay for really, I am certainly glad I stretched myseklf and went for the Logosol over a Woodlands, but equally if all I could have afforded at the time was the Woodlands Im sure I would have been initially happy I keep my Logosol out in all weather 24/7 with no cover, not a spot of rust on it, I also demand a lot from my equipment and push them hard and its taken it all

Begginer at Wooden Crafts- best types of wood to use
trigger_andy replied to Jzarty's topic in Woodcraft Forum
I dont actually burn them Pedo 😄 No surprised you went looking to pick me up on after you made an arse of yourself earlier though 🥱 -
You know that was my point, right?

If anyone and their dog can turn up with a chainsaw and do your job its not a skilled job, hence the over saturation and near on minimum wage rates

Good grief 🙄

You say you live near a forest, I’ll assume you don’t actually own this forest? If you don’t actually own it you can’t make your business model thieving someone else’s property. If it’s not your woodland and you just help yourself it’s theft, simple as. You need the land owners permission to take the timber. -
There is a lot of Cherry about just now due to the Storms. There is some value in the timber but as been mentioned Millers would not really want to take the chances of milling something potentially full of metal and damage their equipment. Roughly how big are we talking here? Someone might be willing to take a punt on it but if they have to do all the donkey work in getting it out your garden to somewhere they can easily lift it onto a trailer then you might find you’re having to pay them to remove it. Most likely you’re better off just splitting it for firewood.

Damn! So Dogecoin will be the currency? 🤣 Interesting times for sure! I wonder if the founders of Twitter will just start a new version Twatter or something and all the heavy hitters will just move there before taking all the brain dead folk who actually use twitter with them rendering Twitter worthless?

Because Musk is away to buy Twitter?

You must spend a fortune when you drive into town solely for Milk. Then the next day for Bread. Then the next day for butter……..

Hence why I said it would be the only reason to go to all that work. [emoji849]

That would literally be the only reason to bother with all that effort A box of firelighters from Home Bargains is 50p, job done

Advice milling sweet chestnut cladding please
trigger_andy replied to Shanemac's topic in Milling Forum
Quatersawn would be very nice but overkill for exterior cladding Id say, you would have significant waste as well To allow for warpage and cupping Id mill them thicker than 25mm, 30-35mm would be my thinking although Im yet to mill for T&G so I can only suggest what Id mill at Plenty Houses cladd in 150mm in Norway so I cant see the issue myself -
Fair enough. Ive looked into sawdust log machines. They use very high pressures and are at least £5000. They also need the dust to be under 20% MC to bind. I’ve about 4 IBC tanks filled with sawdust after the last clean up. They will be getting a dose of diesel and set alight soon. 🤣
