I have just invested in a second hand woodmizer and a few acres of woodland in Wales to play with it in, I have'nt even managed to take a photo of it in action yet , so here is one of me cutting firewood. Hope I can  get the photo attached.
Nope no photo , I click on "photo upload facility" and nothing happens. I did manage to get the photo upladed to my gallery. Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

Welcome to the forum, JPH.  I'll let someone else advise you on the photo,  I haven't tried it on the new format yet.

Welcome JBH

You have got all the hard stuff done with the photo.
Now just go back to your gallery, find the image again and click on the 'click to copy photo insertion code' under the picture.

Then paste that into the post..
Like this

and it's done.

Thanks for that Ian, I think I may have reduced the quality of the image a bit too much.

Welcome, JPH.  You've got you're toe wet, so jump on in.  I was at a specialty veneer  wholesaler who had a lot of ash from hedge rows from England. Beautiful stuff.  You got that kind of wood in your area?

Thanks for your messages of welcome. Call me what you want,  I just used my initials.
The red tractor in the background of the photo is an old Massey Ferguson 35, the blue one an Iseki both about 35hp.
I had some small ash logs that I never got round to cutting up with my chain saw mill, always promising myself I would buy a Woodmizer , of course now I have one I find the logs are well rotted.
Another attempt to post a photo, this time of a small winch I  acquired yesterday. I saw it advertised and thought it may come in useful one day. Not been used for over 50 years, last used to pull a mole plough mounted on the back of a Fordson Major

Welcome aboard JPH always good to have another orange(WoodMizer) and red(Massey Ferguson) fellow around:)

A while back I ran across a video of the Massey plant over in Coventry on the closing day, really enjoyed it and just sorry I never got to any here in the states before they moved.

Enjoy the forum and all the new found knowledge that goes along with it!!

Mike
