Nasty Connie row all out and 'logged' for the customer.

Some people are so desperate for firewood they will burn anything?

Have you ever actually tried burning conifer???

 

 

Its excellent fire wood once dry.

Beat me to it. Have put nothing other than softwood through my burner for nearly 10 years now. Easy to dry, easy to burn and it gives good heat; love it.

Horrible re-reduction of a beech tree today, they always end up looking scalped unless you go a few ft past the periods cuts which the customer did not want

Somehow that looks bonny. Did you use SRT.

Bit of a busy one. We had 28 connies to top and when we arrived on site the owner decided she wanted them out. Done and dusted by 5.30. Definitely blew the cobwebs out after the Christmas break

Hate it (and love it!) when they do that.

 

A phone call would be nice so you could arrange more manpower/equipment.

Agreed Mick but the piss de la resistance was a bloke dragged us off the job to look at a job. A 300+ metre Connie hedge wanted reduced from 45feet down to 20feet all the brash to stay where it lay . We gave him the price and he chocked reckoned he wouldn't pay more than £500 or he'll borrow his mates sky thingy (mewp) and use his old farm boss and do it himself in a day.

I really enjoyed sayin crack on then mate you'll have it knocked out by 2pm :

Turns out the bloke ain't short of a million or 5 surprise surprise
