  1. Treat your self to a new lunch box then 🤣
  2. 2/3 coats each end mark but its a lot easier to paint the end of the logs before they are milled. First thing you should be doing when they get delivered to be honest
  3. I am with steve not a fan of the gloss but that is the finish resin gives. Looks nice on modern stuff
  4. Should seal all your end grain as soon as you get your logs mark. I use SBR personally but pva 50/50 is just as good and stops the end grain from spilling and reduces shrinking
  5. Trouble is with this ash dieback there is so much being cut down.
  6. Harry hill is pretty good to musch
  7. If selling then nothing under 55mm unless to order. 40mm is not generally used in any type of timber work
  8. I have workshop full ben
  9. Only the japs would be crazy enough. My 3 man arbtalk team would be eggs/trigger/scottish jetwash man 🤣
  10. Be surprised if its works left outside like that and you say its rusting which is never a good sign.
  11. Think on my feet see stubby ☺️
  12. Your old canter leaver has seen some work david
  13. Really good read spud and very interesting. Might be asking a daft question but your saying that you get 30-35% more performance out of the saw so does this mean the manufacturers are producing under powered saw units or is it a case of enhancing and modifying a standard engine like you would a racing car so to speak.
  14. A lot of the finance is tax deductible against the business
  15. I know a few of the lads at trade centre wales and ron skinner who sponsor mark williams the snooker player who i have done work for a few times. Salesmen are on a basic wage then every car they sell is £100-Get customer on finance £100-extended warranty £50. Skinner as the dealer gets £500 backhander min for every finance package they pass on but trade centre wales is so big it has its own in house finance company now.
  16. So without a vehicle where is the finance ?? I know what you means eggs but they are really selling the vehicle honestly 🙄
  17. We are not referring to cash as cash paddy but the vehicle is paid for outright without any finance so to speak. Debit card to make payment for example
  18. Yes i did miss that bit musch 🤣
  19. If decent size logs a ton would only be 1 or 2 sticks
  20. Can you replant milled timber then ? 🙄
  21. Stunning pieces
  22. Leasing and finance is like chalk and cheese
  23. I read it just fine mick but a dick head salesman trying to get me to take finance when i wanted to pay outright would have been told in no uncertain terms.
  24. They cannot refuse to sell you a truck unless taking out finance that is just a silly statement. The deal was better i have no doubt but no one can refuse a cash sale
