"WANTED" second hand firewood processor

[davidwilsonarch]

Hi

 

Im looking for a secondhand processor, not too expensive as its just for doing approx 25T per year for personal use.

 

Best Regards

Be a good idea to be a bit more specific, do you have a tractor to power it or do you want one with an engine attached that is maybe road towable.

 

25t a year, thats a fair heap, around 45 cube, I assume its going into a boiler so you will need the capability to cut long logs.

 

Do you have a limit on the area you are prepared to travel to to see/collect said unit.

 

Caledonian Forestry have a JAPA 700, thats a nice little machine, will cut to around 500mm long, need a 35 hp or so tractor to move and power it. Something like a MF135 or Dexta.

 

Unless your timber is billeted then its now a bit late to be processing logs for the forthcoming winter unless you have old cord with bark falling off.

Hi

 

Yes I have a tractor which is big enough. Currently I have a Balfor PTO saw and a towable log splitter but its too slow and I dont want to spend all my time as there is too much double handling of the logs.

 

Ideally a cut length of about 450-500mm long. Caledonian are closed so I will contact them at the end of July when they reopen.

 

This years is all done, Im planning now for next year

 

Basically I will consider anything PTO or engine driven
