The cost £ of bad weather

I used to work with a log chute on 1st thinnings extraction. It was crap in the dry weather, logs used to stick in it all the time, to the point you'd have to tip a 5 gallon drum of water down it a couple of times a day. In the wet it worked much better and bits would fly down and out.

 

Of course, working the log chute was it's own particular brand of Hell, and wet weather made working conditions worse, but it certainly helped to get the tonnage out.

 

Good point. Wet timber easier through the head. Like I give a s!

Hey we all love it when it's been wet and the wind picks up... he says staring at the phone waiting for it to ring.

Speak for yourself, I rather turn the phone off!

 

No longer get exited going out in the dark, rain and wind to clear up a mess generally that was blindingly obvious failure prone anyway.
