  1. I use the local builders merchants trucks when need a favour.They tend to have 7.5 ton with hiabs and will lift a good weight.
  2. Beach tends to warp more when air drying.Put 6/8 mm spacers every 3.4 feet apart between each slab and band them together real tight. Make sure they are in the dry though. Safeguard Heavy Duty Pallet Strapping Banding Kit 1

  7. Put your area you live will be a big help to start with so anyone looking will have an idea. Welcome to our friendly forum ?
  8. How long does something like that take you simon ?? Just interested if you do not mind me asking. Superb job by the way ?
  9. Until you get into this milling people just do not realise how these things hold their money.Cannot get through to some people What did you replace the woodlands with after ?
  10. You can double that i can promise you. just paid nearly a grand for am M7 mill which is nothing compared to a working bandsaw mill. You jocks are a tight bunch ?

  16. Budget ?? ball part figure so anyone selling will know. One of the lads up your neck of the woods sold a woodlands trailer mounted 3 weeks ago for around 3k. I have sold and bought mills privately via the forum.
  17. Do you want to give some for info like as that is a big amount of options. What area are you ?? What sort of budget ? what are you looking at milling ? Are you looking for a mobile or static mill ?? Can help but we are not mind readers.

  19. Just looked on robs site and a GB ripping bar 72" is only £400 mark
  20. Picked up a logosol m7 off one of the lads off here and plan next week or two is to build a new loading platform around it to accommodate much larger logs.She will do 5.6m long and around 36" wide as it is. Effortless to setup and move as goes straight in my trailer and away i go. I am using my stihl 038 on it up to 24" which does it easily and handles my 36"GB ripping bar if i use the alaskan . Have got a stihl ms 660 but not required using that on the m7 mill yet Custom grapple on my excavator
  21. Gav just spend a few bob setting this up in the last few weeks. Your only 30 minutes from me and most welcome to do some kind of deal and you could use mine down at your place.I am up to 4 foot but only a new bar to go bigger. Been on to rob in the last week as it happens (chainsaw bars uk) ?
  22. Not all is up to the milwaukee range but at least 50% are if not better as i have both. Impact drivers are the best i have ever used and that includes the full range as a full time trades person.
