Hows the log sales going now

[gdh]

We're the same, it's been a really good couple of months but we're slowing down now. I expect we'll get one more rush lf it gets cold again otherwise we'll be down to a few loads a week for the summer.

Had a good winter, all sold out now waiting for the first load to come in get processed and straight out again to a customer who takes the loads green

So how have the sales been this spring!!

[Marko1982]

Steady for March and April at 750 tonnes each. Now in season I expect 10 times more.

Actually its not. It just 30 truckloads - 25 tonnes and a "little" bit more in each truck.

 

Now in March, June and July when the people here start to buy firewood for the next winter i hope to do atleast 100 truckloads a month.

[william petts]

Only 750 tonnes a month I don't know y you bother haha ; ), nah good on you, I think we did about 40 cube in April at a guess probably a bit more thinking off it so we have dropped of a bit but now it's summer and other work takes over

2500ton a month! That's some serious output. Do you mind if I ask what your machinery set up is? Can't even imagine what you'd be running to produce all that.

[william petts]

Well I'm guessing he would need more than just one axe haha, been using the axe this week having a break from the processor, I quite enjoy axing but the output is just not there, then again I can split probably around 2cube an hour if a get stuck in, did a day of 6 hours and got just over 10 cube done

[richy_B]

Nothing wrong with the axe and chainsaw approach. If I did a day of 10 cubes by hand I'd probably want a week off to recover!
