Photos tomorrow, at proper computer anyway.

0.5m3 bundles work SO much better.

Astoundly more stable, probably partly because the same tension in the strapping around the smaller bundle has a greater effect.

And the wee crane is well fit for them, so can stack good and high.

Stack really well ( well all 3 so far :blushing:)

Still need to get trees out of the Moss, been too blinking wet up to now.

Anyway am content for now.

Cheers

Marcus

PS

Senior management reckons the 0.5m3 bundle is probably more saleable on my future "cash an carry" sale basis.

Ah! yes:001_rolleyes: the "system" works.

Tis the worker operating the system bes the "weak link":blushing:

Anyway I need to keep Senior Managment company in the garden drinking tea/offering advice/eating Hagen Daz, an the dogs need walked bytimes, an it can be too wet/too cold/too muddy/ then suddenly too hot an a cool Guiness beckons.

Hey its my birthday at the end of the week an I am on holiday.

Life is good.

I took a real pleasure in the bit of joinery work.

All salvage timber cept for the 8 No up-rights. (but even it was unused from a previous job)

Plus I bought the threaded Rod.

Photo 1 is the 1.0m3 bundle, too heavy and loose.

The rest are "Plan B" photos.

Must get back to work so as to be looking busy when the rep calls round about the Herz boiler to avail (hopefully of our yet to be introduced NI) RHI scheme.

Cheers

Looks real nifty even a bit of Astro turf (or old carpet) to put it all on.

 

The home made cradle from left overs looks perfect for the job. What do Posch charge for one the same :lol:

 

Can't quite work out what is going on picture one thou.

Merely trying to see if there was ANY practical way to lift the bigger 1.13 m3 bundles.

Rest of photos are the 0.5m3 versions.

PS

I like your IBU set-up Woodworks, the dia cut roofs are a very tidy arrangment.

Appear to be harder to get here in NI, or they were the last time I was looking (= "scungeing")
