    Hi all, I have been running a woodlands 130max for about 5 years. I have been using ripper 37 1 1/4 blades (sharpened and set myself) although lots of these have now snapped I’m not to stress about this for the amount of used I’ve had from them I have purchased a new to me used mill (wm lt40). It came with a load of blades, I have just started using some of these on the woodlands as the Woodmizer isn’t set up yet. I have been getting some strange results, they look very coarse set I haven’t measured them yet but the finish is terrible and loads of sawdust is left in the cut. I got fed up with this today and switched back to one of my old blades, problem gone first pic new unknown blade sawdust left in the cut second old blades

    Thanks guys, can't imagine me using them then, it's got log loading arms/ gull hydraulics. Yes previous owner has been very helpful, I have already asked him a ton of questions so thought I'd leave him alone for this one.

    Good day people, dose anyone know of any reasonable timber lorry's in the south east? Or any good timber supplies. I'm looking for full loads of saw logs every now and again. Ideally softwoods for cladding material, sweet chestnut and oak.

    THIS ADVERT HAS EXPIRED!

    • EBAY LISTING
    • USED

    For sale is a used hakki pilke OH27. £3500. 07876024880. Location Kent, could possibly arrange delivery at cost. The machine is a 2013. It is by no means brand new and has had a fair amount of use, but it still works well. This is a very fast machine on smaller diameter wood. The machine has a circular saw blade not chain saw so it's very low maintenance. We sharpen every 100tons or more.

    £3,500

    - GB

    Anyone tried a cbn on a grindlux sharpener
  8. Shiny steve
    Just debating what to do with this odd log, maybe 50mm cuts and sticker for a while. Still has the pink colour after a week or two cut.

    No real smell to it and I do have a fair old conk, looks like it's been around a while.

    I'm fairly sure it's not ash I have milled quite a bit recently. I have wondered about oak but the grain doesn't seem rite, no medalery rays. It's really bloody hard the blade was singing.

    Sorry chaps it's another boring what is it question. Just a random log off the pile but quite a striking colour to it, and very hard to cut, no real smell to the wood.

    i have the woodlands sharpener and setting tool, once set up the grinder is pretty good, if not a bit slow. my local saw doctor charges £10 pet blade and normally has a weeks turn around, so i have decided it's better for me to do them myself at least i have sharp blades when i want them. do people set befor or after sharpening?

    As the title dose anyone know of any larch available in the south east. Thanks Steve

    From my short time milling a wire brush is very handy for cleaning oak bark

    One method I have heard of it to apply a finishing oil sutch as Danish or linseed liberally and often as the wood drys in order to replace the moisture being lost from the timber preventing the cells shrinking as much and limiting the splitting affect. I have only had a little play with this idea but it did seem to work to a degree. Steve

    Hello chaps dose anyone know of any drying facilities in the south east
  20. Shiny steve
    That's a pretty good edge for a chainsaw cut. Nice looking timber as well.
  21. Shiny steve
    No no no I won't make sleepers from Elm never..... Now floor boards maybe
  22. Shiny steve
    Thanks bud, I understand selling is a hard game, just seems better than fire wood. Sleepers and basic lumbers/ cladding seems like the easiest sell.
  23. Shiny steve
    Some stunning looking timber there, I'm jealous
  24. Shiny steve
    Just a few sleepers

    Once again, grate info cheers. I'm not adverse to wholesale, but would have to courier I think. I'm in Kent
