  1. Also had two new mills arrive today....[emoji848] Didn't even have time to look or photo.☹️ But tomorrow.... [emoji12][emoji106][emoji106][emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]
  2. Seriously impressed at how quick it knocks out dimensional timber. Will be doing quite a bit of testing with different hardwoods and softwoods. [emoji3][emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]
  3. Finally finished the logosol F2+ [emoji3][emoji3][emoji3] Only had an hour or so to test cut, but it's so quick and easy. My apologies as I can't video edit. [emoji106]
  4. That bloody good going mate, Must have been long days. [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]
  5. Recently had to take on a full time guy. Went through about 6 guys to find a keeper. Loads of guys have tickets but no or little experience, I advertised on here for groundie £100+ a day Climber £150+ a day. Not one call. Driving license is a must too. Picking up and dropping staff off kills your hours. A friend who ran a department of lawyers explained it like this: Mainly the people you employ know the job and how to get on with it. When they aren't performing it's usually because of something in their personal lives. She was more like a shrink/confident, than a manager. Spending time to understand what's going on in their lives may help,as well as you explaining how long hours you already do. No easy answers. Good luck [emoji106]
  6. Yes. It's gotta be better than eBay. [emoji12][emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]
  7. Done [emoji106]
  8. Yes, I'm just slow [emoji106]
  9. The Logosol F2+ is nearly assembled. Just need to level the pad and do some test cutting. [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]
  10. If you have the time and space, seasoning the whole trunk would be great. I sell all my timber green. Ive got very little space for stock. Cutting 2"-3" slabs are more stable. We are cutting 1.5" off these cherry as it's been down a few years. [emoji106]
  11. A few bits of Cherry and Elm. [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]
  12. That's a great video Kav. [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]
  13. The 661 is a great milling saw up to about 30". This is where the 880 takes over. (30"+) Yes the 661 is better than a 660. [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]
  14. [emoji51][emoji51][emoji51]
  15. I thought you'd want one. [emoji12][emoji106]
  16. Got a small labernum crotch milled this morning Nice colour.[emoji106] The yard space is finally getting organised. Milling table built. I can now drop the sides of the transit and roll logs straight off. [emoji3][emoji106] [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]
  17. You back in the area after the arb show silky? You'll have to come for dinner. [emoji106]
