Starting a new venture

[newfenture]

Thanks for all the info on my newfenture.    Now comes the silly questions.      The prices mentioned,  are these for cutting only with the land / estate owner getting the cut wood ?

If I were to offer a service for removing the tree completely what would I charge ?

Sorry for the stupid questions, but, I intended to only to cut wood for myself and when I spoke to friends about what I was going to do things started mushroom.

Maybe I should be thankful for peoples that trust in me.

Are you asking about just buying the tree and removing everything including the timer you'd mill for yourself on location? Or Milling for the customer and also removing all the waste as well? Maybe clear to others but very confusing to me.

Answering your first question ( are you asking about just buying the tree and removing everything including the timber milled for myself on location ? )    yes.

On your second question,  Is the, say, £300-£350 per day for my services only,     and mill to the estate owners specification ?   

 

Remember me saying about silly questions.

No no, Im just bad at reading into what folk are saying.  

 

1, No idea what you could quote for a complete removal? Sorry.

 

2, From asking around £30-£35 an hour seems to be the going rate for Milling, at least here in Scotland anyway. So thats a long day if you wanna charge £300-£350, but who knows? Maybe they'd be happy with that? Its not Hardwood so is the timber you'd extract even worth that much?  Would be different if it was Oak or something.

 

 

What size of Lucas Mill do you have? I quite fancy one too if a second hand one ever turned up.
