Thanks Bob, is there plans somewhere with actual "go to Wo" plans that I can follow. I'm not very good with things like that unless i have detailed plans to follow, I dont mind paying for them.

I would be keen on some plans to make a mill if someone can point me in the right direction. A link would be great. :2tsup:

Not sure but for the money I'm happy.

Heres a metal detector I got on Egay. Just put it over some 50mm Redgum and it was picking up small screws on the reverse side, I was very impressed. Looks the same as the one a leading machine...

I have that saw and have only had it about two months, so far I'm very happy with it. It's all I could afford. I use the digital angle guide before each set up, bit of a pain but it does the trick....

Um......... Its ok! take it easy! I was just hoping someone from Carbatec would read that post!

When you pick the hose up to get the ice off the windscreen and it brakes in half from being frozen.
Happened last week.

Anyone got the new "Ultimate Superjaws"?

"Stunning" what is that finish you have on it?

Thanks Bat, yeah have to figure something out,want to make a dining table but would be a little on the heavey side. I'll take some more/better pics when I make a choice.

It depends on the weather, give it 24 hours. Glad the grinder worked,its a lot faster and actually a lot neater with a steady hand.
You need to go over it with a putty knife or something smooth( a...

This timber is more of a light color!!:? . Can anyone tell me if it has been treated or not or what to look for, like a green tinge etc?

How can I tell if its been treated? its covered in blue paint, that might be the green your seeing. If it is treated should I chuck it?

Ok, sorry if these pics are boring but I'll try anyway!!

So, is it worth making something out of or not? If so I'll do a progressive piccy thing, thinking about a dining table?

Thanks guys, yeah got about seven 3m lengths.
