[emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23] My back! Aaaaargh!!! (Again) [emoji12][emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]

Mill it! It's really nice timber to work/build with. [emoji106]

Shhhh it's a secret I get logs from you... [emoji12][emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]

[emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji106] I agree about the cats paw, but there's a fine line between cats paw and light pippy. It's rare to find proper paw marks in a walking pattern. [emoji106]

What's the difference? [emoji106]

Yeah big upgrades. Logosol have sponsored me with an F2+. [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106] And Rob.d (Chainsawbars.co.uk) has sponsored me with an 60" and an 80" panther mill.[emoji106][emoji106][emoji106] After using a chillaskan for years, these new mill are such high end kit. The logosol is great for dimensional timber and slabs up to 70cm wide and 3.8m long. Bloody useful.[emoji106] The panther mills are such a step up from chillaskans. Couldn't go back now. The logosol and panthers are such wonderful pieces of engineering. Until you put one together and use it, you don't appreciate the sheer amounts of effort put into them. My hat off to the designers [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106] [emoji106]

I'll bring a couple of pieces Friday [emoji106]

Still worth milling. Unless it's in rings. [emoji106]

Some of the nicest pippy oak. Not huge but very pretty. [emoji3][emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]

When you say "tulip" do you mean magnolia or poplar?

Might be nearly time to get a spare 880 or two. Couldn't mill without one. [emoji51] -
Did my cs32 with TKF last year. Would highly recommend them. [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]

Great bit of kit. I've worked along side a climber with one. [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]

Had to put the sycamore job off til Wednesday. Back is playing up again. Shouldn't lift quarter ton logs. [emoji849] Found a use for monkey puzzle. Log bed.[emoji106] Started on this pippy oak. Once the log is on the mill it's so easy and quick. Brilliant for cutting square edge timber. The cut is a bit wavey, but I'm using a 25" bar without nose support. [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]

Recommendations for a Solar kit for a workshop

Producing the power is relatively cheap and easy, the expensive and hard part is storage. 12v leisure batteries are good for lighting with leds and constant recharging. [emoji106] -
Anyone tried half a file in a cordless drill?

A waney edge oak clad house. [emoji106]

About 1.8-1.85m wide. [emoji106]

Give me a shout if you want them milled. [emoji106]

Where abouts are the logs? Cut a 6" round off the end. If it's still mush cut another. The sapwood hasn't rotted, but the core of one or two is debatable. By the looks of it, slabs and resin tables. What diameters? [emoji106]

Depends where you buy it from. At 12" wide, seasoned QS in 8' lengths with minor defects, air dried. Not cheap, but high end rustic. Roughly £20-£40 a piece depending on quality of grain. For sidings you'd be looking at seconds. £20-£30 ish. That's wholesale/bulk purchase. *Prices may vary* [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]

We have gas central heating. The wife refuses to have a log burner in the house.[emoji51][emoji51][emoji51] I still have 5m3 of cut logs sitting in the garden. Just in case.... (winter of 63) [emoji106]
