£169 for hydraulic log splitter. Worth buying one as a spare at that price. There goes the mobile log splitting service!

Looks pretty puny, limited to 250mm dia logs.

 

Talking of log sales my local free issue magazine that came in today has 7 ads for logs, while I do advertise in there I don't advertise logs. 2 other stove companies who sell Certainly Woods logs do the same.

 

All the new ones seem to be arb lads selling off their logs, prices down to £65 - £70 for a cube for seasoned hardwood delivered. If it is what they say and in the volume they say which is probably unlikely then its not worth buying cord in and having the investment in gear to process it. We will see how it pans out over the winter.

Axe looks worth a punt for 20 quid. Anyone used one?

[spandit]

I've got two of their spitting axes. Haft is a little short but I haven't had to use the spare yet

[rapalaman]

I've used one of their hand axes and it was pretty crap - dull blade and doesn't stay sharp for long. Only use it for roots in places where it's hard to get a proper swing with a full size

I don't think it will affect your log sales will focus people's minds on winter coming especially with current weather. Toys like this keep the whole wood burner fad going. People buy this junk and realise how much work goes into logs then pick up the phone and order a load.
