  1. More or less the exact same thing to be honest.I have used the f2 also and apart from colour i could not tell the difference.Bought mine off one of the lads on here back in april but its just not been used as i have the bandsaw mill. I would stick to a ton log and max it at 24" but roughy goes a lot bigger on his.
  2. Chris i have a logosol M7 i bought off one of the lads on here i do not really use. Its setup to mill 5.6 m long
  3. I would have been £60 on that jack for 100 mm thick
  4. These things have to be done so hope it all goes smoothly.Any issues just blame eggs
  5. What was that wide slab mill you bought a while back gav ? Peterson ?
  6. Seriously large saw to cut 1200 mm wide slabs that is for sure so looking at a peterson type mill on your budget.
  7. Loads of vids on the tube and thousands and thousands sold world wide and big is the usa and canada
  8. I have milled with mine with a 36" GB bar and works well and as mentioned for a backup saw its ok.
  9. Still in kit form but you can get fully built ones to. I have one as a backup saw and runs sweat as a nut to be fair.
  10. Run it at 25-1 as mentioned.Will smoke a bit but for a cheap saw will get the job done.
  11. Bring ones sex life into it again i see.Its ok eggs there is help available in the form of a tablet called viagra ?
  12. Big J when you thing of all the top british gold medal winners of recent times they are all big tall athletic guys so not surprising your in your comfort zone here mate.
  13. And no council tax to pay ?
  14. Have you looked at any auction sites.I go to one on the last friday of every month and they have a big selection normally Brightwells HGV & Plant Auction
  15. Just google SPR water proofer
  16. Just do it anyway as soon as you get them home
  17. Yes they all should be sealed asap to stop end grain splitting.I use SPR waterproofer x 3 coats
  18. Why spend 7k on a saw and skimp on oil ?
  19. Your next mate (bandsaw mill) new year.
  20. Oil spec is i the book that comes with it.
  21. We have a massive road building project ongoing local and has been for the last 8 years so been a surplus about,Quite a few wagon lads drink in the one pub on a friday and always looking for a back hander.
  22. Seems like we are in agreement for once ?
  23. I have the same model as steve posted but a 3 phase version.I bought a titan TTB579PLN 204mm from screwfix about 2 years ago and its come down in price now around £160 and to be honest its not used a lot but finish is excellent on oak.Only thing that seems to go is the drive belts but i would buy another in a shot.
  24. Most people would and used plannings months old with pack down and bind nice in warm weather.Just get some dicks who know better.
  25. Spot on eggs and guys around here use them all the time.When rolled and compacted they go like iron but what do i know. Its a farm track for gods sake.
