You can probably access all the back numbers too. Its a nice read for anyone with an interest in woodland or working with wood.

Link here https://livingwoodsmagazine.co.uk/subscriptions/ to subscribe (free) and download - plus access to back issues.
It used to be a hard copy magazine but the Editor, Nick, had an accident and when he recovered it was brought back as a digital mag.

Sorry I hadn't posted about it before - just assumed that Bob/SC would know about the magazine. I had a free subscription when I bought the wood otherwise I probably wouldn't have known about it.

And some more milling.
Getting to the end of our row of logs now. It’s a long way to pull them into the mill now.

         

She had a big shake running all the way through her. Made things a little tricky

   

And some more milling photos ( are you bored yet? )

         

About 75 boards and 8, 2”x 2” today.

Never bored SC, keep 'em coming. So exciting seeing how you do things. Totally outside of my sphere of experience. I couldn't start to knock up a table like you did, let alone build a house.

You're doing what so many of us have dreamt of doing but never did. We're with you every nail, plank, whatever of the way.
Keep the photos coming - don't bruise your shutter finger. Big Grin

First trailer load of scaffolding ready to go. It got ( hopefully) enough of all the different bits needed to make 2 sections 2 high.  With a few spare bits and a few “what’s that bit for” Huh .  Bob will drive it up to the plot later and I’ll go and unload it tomorrow. This will happen several times this week and get unloaded in different locations around the house so we don’t have to manhandle it all to far. Because as you can imagine, it’s all quite lumpy ( SC speak for heavy  Big Grin ).
