So am I. Can’t wait to start. It’ll feel like we’re really progressing.

That, my friends, is how they built Stonehenge. Big Grin
Really enjoyed that, SC, and Bob's Mill video. Most impressive - great bit of kit.

Love that, especially the milling video.

A few more random photos of milling.

It took us nearly all day yesterday to move 4 logs ( the one in the mill and first 3 next to it ) . The farm brought the digger round and moved another 8 into place for us in about an hour and a half. That lot should keep us busy this week.

After some delays ( I nearly got the g&g linch mob back together  Wink ) . Over 10 days waiting for the proper mill sharpener to turn up  Angry . Just cast your mind back to some of the other fiascos we’ve experienced with the build so far and you’ll get the general idea what sort of almighty cock up it was ! Anyway. It’s arrived and we’re back to milling    Big Grin . After I’d finished work we rolled this little fella into place. Ready to mill tomorrow.

I am intrigued as to how many lengths of cladding it will provide?

When do you hope to start the cladding SC?

We’ve had a guess at how many it’ll make. We think about 50.
we still need to get the baton ordered and up first but hopefully we’ll be ordering that this week. Well we better do or ……
