  1. And it's soooo cheap roadside too [emoji106]
  2. S.chestnut is fantastic wood! I'd rather use it over oak, but there isn't much up here. Really strong durable wood once seasoned, very light compared to other hardwoods. Hardly any sap wood either, Makes great waney edge boards. If the stem wasn't vertical during growth it will probably split though. [emoji106]
  3. In my hand. I was banging a new file into it when the file dropped out as I brought my hand down hard. Won't do that again. Note to self, hold the file! [emoji106]
  4. All the tang. About 50mm Missed everything important, [emoji51]
  5. It's swelling up nicely as I write [emoji51][emoji106]
  6. Quickest I've ever been through A&E. 15 mins to see a nurse who told me " we can wash it for you?" Back to work tomorrow. [emoji106]
  7. Just stuck a file 1.5" in to my hand. I'm writing this from A&E. Got lots of milling over next few weeks, Won't be pushing a saw for a few days. Can anyone help? Huddersfield area. Thanks 07376803384 Saul
  8. Another winter over, Here's looking forward to warmer weather and longer days [emoji3][emoji3][emoji3]
  9. Saw a 2008 tidy transit tipper for sale on eBay yesterday for £400. [emoji51][emoji849]
  10. Thanks Steve!!! Received these in the post today. [emoji3][emoji3][emoji3] [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]
  11. Well that's what the stihl guy said to me before I had a go. [emoji848]
  12. Yes. Drops to 10k But it is rather torquey. And "lightweight" [emoji106]
  13. Nice bit of burr there [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]
  14. Anyone got a used large trailer for sale? Preferably in the north near Manchester? But can travel. Must be at least 10' long (and cheap[emoji3]) 07376803384 Thanks Saul
  15. I'm slightly concerned with the possibility of no more 120cc saws in future. Wondering if I should start stock piling 880's? [emoji848]
  16. My small collection I sold(☹️) consisted of: 075 056S 051 440 Partner r14t 76cc 08S 021 009 x2 I miss the 051 and the 056S the most. Solid, last forever saws. ☹️☹️☹️
  17. Might have something. 07376803384 Saul [emoji106]
  18. Make totem poles [emoji12][emoji106]
  19. How entry level? Plywood Alaskan mill? Or bandsaw? Quite a bit in between. [emoji106]
  20. Nearly every week. Mainly for milling. [emoji106]
  21. Msa200 for the workshop, 261 461 661 880 [emoji106]
  22. Last summer I was on a big site job felling and snedding a lot of trees. Ditch witch to move brash and logs. Bandit 990/925? 14/17"?Chipping onto a pile so no chip runs. After several days the chipper went down. Got another big bandit with a winch. Loading brash sideways with a loader is very difficult. But dropped in front and winched in, so quick. Strangely satisfying. [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]
  23. Good advice [emoji106]
  24. Quality photography as well as tree work [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]
