Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

I'm there... of course, nothing better than my new forum mates, most of my workmates and mates will be on the other side of the country....
I cant wait, now the mill is up and running on to the next mill, exmork vs Phill AX400... going to be a tough choice!
Gotta say the Phillm machine I have is the ducks guts as far as F&P's go and the AXFX 400 should be in another league again..
Luck favours the well prepared

Hi Karl,
Alan is a nice guy, go for a drive down to his orchard ,about 2 hours, . there are nice places to stay the night ,as I found out.
Alan has some good set-up's and if you contact him first ,he might invite another couple of wind mill guys over to meet you. Have a BBQ.
Pleased to hear all the news of Phill's machine ,he's doing some fine work. I'm a bit burn't out these days ,but hoping to work on the LG's and Seeley's during the winter.
Enjoy Perth

Hi Karl
Had a look at the rural/residential properties near Ballajurra, nothing on the market there, looks like those there are staying there.
Cheers
BarryI need to learn from the mistakes of others.
I dont have the time to make them all myself.

Ahh well I'm here or there depending on how you look at it.
Perth LOOK out Karl Jensen is now in Town!!!
Looks like EMU bitter is the WA beer and it isnt tooo bad.
Seen the scenery from the airport to town and Mounts bay rd has a nice hill to look at from our current dwellings.
Internet connection is woeful via the 3G phone but nonetheless will get us by for the time being -I'll be like Gordon not looking at any youtube stuff
Car 1 arrives tomorrow morning so we'll go for a drive around town get the lay of the land.
looking forward to seeing some local boys Mills and given the boys are down South a "wine tour" -slight 200K detour to see a mill or two should be do-able.
Lots of enquiries about F&P motors the last few days,
thanks everyone I've been referring them to Jarbar but I didn't actually ask him first SO -Melbourne needs someone to take my place
I moved about 4 per week which made me enough coin to buy a box of beer or so per week takes a couple of hours with posting them etc so really no money in it but beer is beer! Luck favours the well prepared
