Thats one of the reasons I bought this welder 100% duty cycle @ 120 amp , 35% duty cycle @ 200amp . I only ran it between 80 and 91 amps , it has a digital readout and overload protection . Not that...

I dont think I will need any couterweights , the cradle and all the gear hanging off of it are real heavy , I will try and post some pics of the cradle tommorow, the cradle takes two blokes to lift...

Yeah well , I was about as sharp as a blunt stick on this occasion , but at least I was willing to share this info with me mates at the forum . my next welder purchase will be a Boc MMA 170 inverter...

Sadly Bob the feedback does not actualy reflect the truth , ebay are very clever about how this works , also sellers encourage posative feedback as soon as possible , also there is a time limit on...

Very good Paul , very funny . Here are a couple of progress photos of the actual mill . I did not bother to bolt it together properly for now , missing nylock nuts etc . Cheers MM

My mate gets his blades retipped for 50 buck a blade . Cheers MM

A mate of mine used sump oil and creosote to treat pine posts , he used a couple of 44 gal drums welded together and soaked the pine posts over night in a solution of sump oil and creosote , not sure...

So how does the auto pilot work Bob? Cheers MM

I know nothing to do with cleaning oil , but I have to ask , is that saw cutting by itself? I see sawdust and was the beer nice , looks like a good day out . Cheers MM

Good point , I only use mine trimming my trees and sometimes others too , sounds like you will get your monies worth . Cheers MM

This is all very nice Hamma , but does not help clean oil :o

I like Stihl gear , but $1300 is way too much for me . Cheers MM

Yeah I bought one a while back , it is about 4m's long bloody marvelous , weighs a ton though with all the extensions , I will be getting the hedge trimmer attachment soon , thanks too the turkeys...

Whoopy do , I am sure this has a lot to do with cleaning oil , or is this about egos

These days it is easy to clean sump oil , all that is required is a centrifuge , you buy them , not too cheap though . Cheers MM

Yes but you forgot the bad knees:U

I bought quite a few bummer saws as I call them , I originally got one for the step son , then some of me mates wanted a cheap saw , they all had the same idea , a couple of loads of firewood and its...

Sounds like the join. Cheers MM

Stihl recomend 50-1 with there oil and 25-1 with anyone elses oil , I run 25-1 no matters who's oil it is . Cheers MM

Hi Guys me and a couple of mates bought around about 6 stihl chinese copy saws for between $80 - $180 each delivered for a 62cc saw $47 dollars of the price was freight , the cheapest saw was $80...

Worth less than 2 grand brand new now , because of competition

Smart blokes just get a proper depth gage measurer , like the Carlton file o plate . Cheers MM

50/1 is actually less than 40/1 , I actually run all my Stihls on 25/1 , as Stihl recomend 25/1 when we use any oil but theres . Cheers MM

Sounds great Derek , sounds like your well on your way to builing your mill , you might like to start a new thread in the milling section , I am sure the guys in the milling section would like to see...

Hi Steve I have a simple winch on my mill designed a long the logosol version , I can see how that would work quite easily , the diameter of my winch shaft is only about 1/2 an inch , which gives you...

If you have back probs you want one of these , but with the rails at ground level and a remote throttle so your not bending all the time , that is why I built a logosol style type mill , only if I...
