Wanted Beech arb arisings nr Andover Hants

[gensetsteve]

If anyone needs to loose some rings after a job near Andover You can tip here or I can collect 2.5 tonnes at a time with my ifor tipper. Its for my own use and need about 10 tonnes a year. If I get more I supply a few old customers. Happy to pay a few quid but cant take any chip. Would consider buying some cord. Maple or birch ok but my stove loves beech and hates Oak.

Issue with Oak is that it is very dense and very slow to dry. Allow 3 - 4 years after splitting, hence it is usually sold wetter than ideal. I have some air dried Oak joinery waste, about 7% MC, massive heat output.

I have some oak in the back of the poly tunnel been there 4 years in 50 deg heat and was dead standing probably for 15 years and it still wont burn. I do have some cut bits of oak pallet and it burns like coal.

Don't want to be funny but you must have different oak to me at I got a load July 13 cut it in march down to 20% now 14 inch cord respite to test moister content.. You can see where it's dry 30mm in from been left stacked. When it's down to 18% it's going out. It's bad enough carrying stock for a year let alone 4.
