I'm with you there Dan, we should all wear masks as well but wont go into that, the biggest problem in NZ that every form of health protection is so expensive, even sun block, retailer and the government put their maxi min mark ups on these product or it would seem that way

Logged will not dry as it is to thick, anything over 4"thick will not dry in the center, boarding and staking is the only way, end sealer will help from splitting, stack in an airy place

The 21" and 30" are made in Asia and I thought the smaller 16 would be as well, it is not available in, if it has vibration then some thing must be loose

Hey Dan you can collate all these ideas and send them off to a manufacturer and make sure when they have made it, it is available in NZ
Thanks Dan

The machine has a 5 year warrant so I doubt if they are taking it off the market
