Cant believe how close some of you lads get to this. That 50.5455 cubic meters measurement was accurate , goes to show that although most of the hardwoods like beech ,oak etc are around a ton per cube meter when they are stacked even tightly like this lot was the air spaces make at least 50% of that volume. Had that have been all beech it would have gone 25ton.

 

Anyway it weighed 23.450 tons.

 

1st Rover 23.765 ( knackered transfer case )

2nd Chris23a 24ton ( bent bar from an 88 )

3rd Mattinman1990 22.7ton ( squashed jerry can )

4th Santacruz 22.4 ton ( anything you like out of the scrap bin )

And anyone else between 20 and 25 ton well done.

Oh well. Another failure to win anything. That prizes were the Holy Grail!!:001_rolleyes:

Very upset that I missed out on the prizes, I have already removed the gearbox from my landrover, to fit the new transfer case, what a waste of time, and I was local.:001_tongue:
