Im taking the plunge

Interesting reply buddy, whats the digger for??? I've sold just of £2500 of logs in Dec and Jan and only bought an axe

 

The digger has got a timber grab on it. Ive been doing logs for a good few years but my old Palax was on its last legs. my old digger (Hymac) was getting past it. My transit wanted to much money spending on it and i use my tractor for contracting. I do nearly 30 bulk bags a day some days (trade) Most of my work is to trade and i cant let them down so i either go balls out or nowt. We will soon make it back.

We have now started to bag our shavings/sawdust as soon as it comes out the back of the Palax it gets blown into bags and its then sealed. But what the rudy hell do with 8ish tons of sawdust?

Pet shops?

 

Spend even more money and compress it in to pellets?

I thought about pet shops but its not dust extracted:confused1:

we have a 200 ton press at work but its getting time to experiment to make a briquette press. Weve had a bit of a go and it was quite promising. You can buy spunk-a-matick pellet mills from china but what there like i dont know?

Not sure but I chuck mine straight into the stable. I would contact an equestrian outlet and see if they would consider buying it.
