Big Beech removal

[logger]

just got the measurements through on that beech tree, comes in at 312 cubic feet, which equates to roughly 15.5 ton

 

Very roughly--- 12 ton would be nearer

the 2 of you must be reading off of different charts then! havent seen the data myself, though coincidentally i guessed it at 15ton on the day.

Nice video Steve, you're right about the buttresses IMO.

 

BTW my book has beech at 900ish Kg per cube so at 8.8 cube it must be about 7 ton.

Steve i dont work off charts started in this game as a measurer and it was part of my job to know what timber equated at ft/ ton to keep lorries running within legal weights.Green beech 25- 26 cube per ton trust me ive measured hundreds of thousands of cube.

Cheers. and im not trying to be clever-- just think its helpful that people know these things.

We never worked off charts but more from volumes accepted in the round timber trade-- there were slight variations from site to site but these are generally minimal--usually not more than 1 cube/ ton.

Well well. You actually did some work?!?

[Steve Bullman]

just for 2 hours

Nice work, Steve.....

 

Any usable timber, for woodworkers etc? looked like some good spalting, maybe not too much rot?

 

Makes life easy when you got so much room, eh?
