milling thread

I'll never get stuck here. I hauled in over 1,200 yards of gravel. It's over 2' deep right there.

Concrete rubble makes a nice base. Once it's been used awhile, everything locks in nice and tight.

 

[Tree09]

Yup recon is the way. You can also fluff up the gravel and it'll be like new too, and a bit of wet spots isn't a big deal if it's all solid. My driveway is a hill so all the fines end up at the bottom.

 

[stig]

Nah, ground up asphalt is the stuff to use.
Sets real tight on a hot day plus, no dust.

 

[Tree09]

Those are called millings here, those are great too.

 

[lxskllr]

Millings are better for a top coat imo. Depends on what kind of ground it's on. If I were doing budget paving for truck access, I'd want a concrete rubble base, with millings on top.

 

[Tree09]

Yup, they would just sink in the mud here. Hell the recon or ca6 will too, so sometimes they'll even lay geogrid down first

[Burnham]

[CurSedVoyce]

Some milling been going on here recent. These are some nice ponderosa logs. Customer wanted some 4x8x20 beams as well.

 

[CurSedVoyce]

See if the pictures show up.....

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Nope

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Again....
@Brandon
No thumbnails showing on uploaded pics.
And obviously not showing in post

 

[CurSedVoyce]

@Brandon.
It might be a file size issue.
A small file from saving a pic from a web site uploads fine in the joke thread.
Picture from my phone camera no success .

 

[Nutball]

I'd think there would be a message if the file was too big. There is a feature or add-on that will resize images automatically, but sometimes it's nice to have an original size image.

Yeah it’s possible with the new php install I didn’t precisely match the previous upload limits, I’ll check that.

Are you getting any error from the site when attempting to upload from your phone camera roll?

 

[Nutball]

If it was up to me, I'd set a limit where the forum resizes anything bigger than 3200x2400, which should leave images satisfactory on 4k displays without being obnoxiously large 20-50MP files.

No error from the site. Uploads and the window is blank. Like it does upload, just to no where

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Well, see if a link works.

Warm enough for the mill today. Some cedar I fell a few months ago. The client wants raised beds on posts.

Managed to get a Bozeman saw from Princess Auto on sale. Only a 15" cut, but I do deal with a lot of smaller logs, till the bigger mill goes on sale.

 

[lxskllr]

That's a hell of a lot nicer than shoving a chainsaw through a log.

Happy for you, Peter!
