  1. surely Chris the UK was better value at the moment because of our adventures with Brexit and the fall in the value of the pound?

     

    I've always avoided Timberyard as it always looked like it aping new Nordic. 

     

    Did you get to the 'Scran & Scally' a pseudo pub by Tom Kitchin, a 10 minute wander out of town?

     

     

  2. Got my lumpen steel arriving tomorrow..

     

    I have flaxseed oil but before that... 

     

    what % percentage lye crystals in water do people recommend? 

     

    Do I pat solution on the steel whilst wearing full chemical warfare fatigues?

     

    what is the best vessel to store the steel overnight, for lye to work.

     

    I wash off lye solution next day (in full fatigues ) and dilute remaining lye liquid before pouring down drain?

     

     

     

     

     

  3. I want to get my own steel chopped for oven insertion and pizza production.

     

    The problem is I want to know if 'mild' steel of structural use is safe for food use.

     

    I'd buy in the UK where S275 is easily available and somewhat comparable to the famed A36.

     

    BUT EU specs & US specs aren't the same... anyone know probabilities of heavy metals leeching out etc?

    not sure if that's an temporary thing or a permanent price reduction. This is as far as I see a bit cheaper for the europeans than the canadian amazon offer a few months ago.

     

    after telling myself I definitely wouldn't buy from them again (after the errors in the first MC & the shipping damage when they sent out MC@H naked), I've bought.

     

    There must be crack addicts with more self control than me!

    For some reason my 27 isn't seasoning as well as the smaller one, even though I'm using the same method. Annoying.

     

    I had that too, but the other way round 27 came out a treat but 23 is a blotchy mess.

     

    Oven cleaner and then start again, anyone?

  6. i thought funding would have been quicker on this.

     

    UK buyers might have been put off by the collapse of the value of the pound post Brexit...

     

    but mainly trying to get funding for a pricey item at the run up to Christmas when most people have demands on their finances maybe wasn't the wisest?

     

    (still want one).
