kindling production

[timjmac]

Does anyone have a kindling processor they think a lot of? we have a posch on hire, with two of us working it we are producing about 60 45x65 bags per hour.

Thanks.

We have a kindlet which is great. I saw a demo of a posch but when they got a jam they trashed about 3 bags worth clearing it. Can you get it to do nice neat stacked bags like this picture. 60 bags an hour is about the max for two people my wife runs the machine by herself and turns it of about every 5 minutes does between 25-35 per hour. If we get a knot we can open the machine and clear it. Remember it can take as long to cut the wood to 6" as it does to kindle it.

aye the posch is able to do the neatly stacked bags, although we prefer the random filled bags, it takes less to fill them and they dry out better. I hear what you are saying about preparing the wood, we cut ours 7" long and max 9" diameter, its an extremely slow process, we now call them larch balls because of their rolling abilities
