The ban hammer getting dropped on him hopefully

I’m paying that for a 5t bogie load with no vat added. I made a mistake though, it’s £60 not £50 A ton. 😬 if it was a regular arctic load it would be £50. Cash obviously.
-
Cover it all back up again 100mm of Kingspan going in. I do like the stone being exposed but its too bloody cold.
-
It really is Back to ripping the house apart. 😁
-
Been out hunting for Chanterelles a few times now. On my mates Estate, there’s so much this year it’s unreal.
-
Im paying £50 a ton delivered for larch in 3m lengths. That sawlogs, genuine sawlogs. To pay anything over £20 a ton standing seems like madness and certainly not worth the effort. The standing dead ironically might be worth the most. Log cabin builders love it due to the shrinkage having already taken place.

Id seriously look at your converter. Ill assume the old boy had an actual 3ph supply?
-
I find it scary to use as well, but it keeps a healthy respect for the machine. I will use my smaller ones for little jobs and only use this when I have to
-
Hmmmmm, I did not know that. 😮 Thanks for the heads-up. Thankfully I tend to just get it started then head around to the exit side. I'll certainly keep that in mind.
-
He uses it without extraction and lets the young lad clean up after. 🤣 He has used it so little these last few years anyway. He’s built a box for extraction for the thicknesser and to be honest that’s where I’d use it the most anyway. I’ve a guy wanting the oak shavings and we’ll do a deal for fresh smoked salmon! 😊
-
Good point regarding transportation! Ill need to be there when its moved then. My mates roped Jewsons into moving it for us. Yeh, I have an extractor that I bought for my Log Cabin Log Molder. Its a twin bag 3ph machine so should be up to the job
-
Yeh, I have 3ph the Estate I keep my Mill at sometimes
-
Its a funny market for sure. He was offered £2200 but I sweetened the deal with a buy-back option and he can use it when he needs to.
-
Buying this off of a mate today. I’ve used it for years and it’s a cracking bit of kit. Getting it delivered for £1500. Seems like a good price?

I hate the term but thinking outside of the box could they mean that the carbon required to produce the appliance eventually be nullified by burning a carbon neutral product? If the appliance produced 5t of carbon from conception to delivery and was burning carbon positive fuel such as coal over its expected lifespan and that coal produced an average of 20t of carbon then designing the stove to efficiently burn biofuel ie, a carbon neutral product then over the stoves lifespan it’s effectively a carbon neutral or even a carbon negative product. Another possibility is the manufacturer has offset the carbon footprint of the appliance to negate the carbon footprint of manufacturing and with the burning of carbon neutral biofuel the carbon footprint will not increase. In this fecked up world that could make it a carbon neutral product. 🤷♂️

Osmo hardwax. Get the work/countertop variety.

I hate to say it but Larch is currently my favorite. Primarily due to its ability to get to a high heat quickly and holds onto it. Perfect in the kitchen cooker. Winter time its beech, oak and larch for me. But I'll be burning whatever comes off of the Mill as waste.
-
Exactly! I just copied his comment.
-
Well I've got to give Mesterh something.
-
£7k and wont even heat your water?
-
Good old Morrisons! Its a quality steak at frying steak prices.
-
If only we had a ready supply of timber here in the UK. 🙄 If the price is too good to be true......
-
How did I know you where gonna say something like that? 🙄 You're certainly not one for owning your mistakes are you? Anyway, lets move on. Funny you should mention Morrisons (no apostrophe required ) I get my marrow bones from there, one of the few places outside of the local butchers that sell them. They still do a genuine butchers range in Dundee. Not seen if they do Flat Iron though. One of my daughters used to work in a Dundee butchers and when I asked them for Flat Iron they where quite surprised. A 40% discount was rather welcome though.

Yes, but minus points for create. Double cringe for hear.
