2 cubic metres?

[s.varty]

I had one complaint last year one of my first loads out. I had a bad feeling about this very strange man the year before. Complained logs too small and not dry enough. He had failed to leave the money with his wife the day before so when I reposessed my logs I did not need to refund his money. I was polite firm but not aggressive. My advice if you catch some strange ones on the line throw them straight back lifes too short

 

Yeah,theres always gonna be one with his moisture meter, hands on his hips saying your logs are not 2% and the man that sold me the logburner said "only kiln dried logs at 2% moisture will burn on your logburner" . Once every couple of years i get this.As said turn away and deliver to the next customer. I was working in a graveyard today and i was looking at the headstones, a lot of them wernt far off my age. Life really is to short.

Been thinking a bit more on this one.

 

From my random workings, in order to come to to the 8 from ordering two, there needs to have been some reference to cubed mentioned somewhere.

 

Now correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't know anyone offering logs but the metre cubed, only by the metre cube (so 1x1x1).

 

1 cubic metre = 1x (1m x 1m x 1m)

1 metre cube = 1x (1m x 1m x 1m)

1 metre cubed = (1m x 1m x 1m) to the power of 3

 

I think it's all about the magic d

I see your point ThrustSSC, it just shows how inaccurate the English language is compared to maths!

Yes I believe you if you say you have a degree in maths, but not sure if you, on the other hand, would believe I have a degree in engineering!? I have actually.

 

LOL :-) OK, I'll do the sums, you design me a nice big splitter that lets me sit with my feet up on a stump drinking tea while it does my work! :-D
