Orders coming in nicely, just about finishing last years processed timber, going to be on this years soon, been a good year, just what i needed, in this game it’s amazing how big the difference can be from a good to a bad year, keep on chopping [emoji106]

Log sales are a bit quieter just now, so busy stock piling

Do the logs dry well in there?

[briquette_seller]

They are dry when they go into the shed, sub 20%

Feel a bit jealous.

What machine to get get logs so high in piles?

 

Mobile Conveyor ?

Presumably they're pushed up with a loader bucket. I wish we could get away with that, we cut a pile like that in the summer years ago but with our weather it was white with mold by the time it came to selling and we had to sort the whole lot by hand.

Telescopic forklift, 6m I think she is.

I have piles like that outside all year round and, touch wood, mould has never been a big problem.

It's ALWAYS windy in my wood yard, which is great for the logs but not so good for everything else.
