Wood wanted for milling demos at apf Staffs - can you help?

[Rob D]

Myself and Loglogic need a load of timber for milling demos at the apf show. This would need to be dropped off on the 20th or the 21st September on site at Cannock Chase, Rugeley, Staffordshire.

 

We would like all hardwood either oak, beech, ash or elm or any other hard woods you may have.

 

4x 3ft to 3.5ft diameter - 8ft to 12ft long.

 

9x 2ft to 2.5ft diameter - 8ft to 12ft long.

 

I was thinking there's 2 ways of playing this.

 

1) We could just pay for the timber as a straight deal or :

 

2) (and preferably) you could drop the timber off and it will be milled for you for free (to your requirements) ready to be picked up at the end of the show.

 

 

On our stand we will have running a full collection of chainsaw mills, a Peterson 8" swingmill and an auto trek bandsaw mill.

 

 

If you need more info please post, PM or call 07811611457.

 

Cheers, Rob

I know Charlie is very close to the show Rob.

[Rob D]

Does he have lots of timber he wants milling Stevie?

 

If he may be interested can you forward his number to me or mine to him?

[Stephen Blair]

i don't have his number mate, he is on here all the time he will appear mate. He works on a big estate so could be promising and his avatar is him milling a bit of beech lol

[Charlieh]

havent got anything like what your after in, i think several demos are having bother because of the fact that the timber cant be sourced on site,

 

i will have an ask around,

[Charlieh]

i dont work on a big estate though, but I have a couple of contacts that may be able to help, i will try and sort some numbers for you tomorrow Rob

[Stephen Blair]

sorry Rob i will leave your thread alone now.

[Rob D]

Ho Ho!

 

 

Thanks Charlie - yes if you could ask around as there's plenty of time yet. Someone could do well out of it as they'll have their timber milled for free as close as possible to how they want it milled.
