8" logs

[arniecardigan]

I've just had a request for 8" max logs! are stoves getting smaller or does my customer not know what 8" looks like:thumbup:!?

 

I cut most of my logs to 10/11" so have told her I'll have to charge extra to cover extra time etc.

 

Am I being reasonable in charging more??

[Mark Bolam]

No. More work=more money.

Did you tell her that 11 inch will probably fit unless you've got the worlds smallest burner?

I tend to cut a couple of dumpy bags of 7 inch logs every now and again as I now have a few customers who ask for shorter one. Don't charge any extra.

I thought 10" was small but now I've been made aware of a new small......maybe its just because I'm big:thumbup:

Used to cut to 10" - 11" for personal use, but now found that if they are cut at 7" - 8" they give a lot more heat out due to extra air that circulates round them

My neighbour does this to get the most out of local log merchant. Smaller logs mean less air gaps and therefore more logs!

Have quite a few customers asking for 8" logs. Basically it's all the short off cuts plus a few nice ones. Charge the same at present but really should charge more as definitely a lot more work. On the plus side got a few customers wanting 16" logs and they pay the same as well. Can't be bothered with a different prices for our various lengths so for the time being it's you win some you lose some.
