Not sure when it's booked in for, I'm just exploring avenues to make the job go efficiently. Save me ringing up 60" discs to split and handball to the vans to take to a yard with not enough space for all that timber.

 

The tree has armillaria I think.

if it's 5' in diameter then the timber should be milled by someone as it's very good at lasting outdoors.

 

 

I don't care what happens to the timber. It'll go whichever way is the most cost effective.

 

I've never understood why a tree "should" be milled.

Tell you what. If I fell it in your direction it'll be 90' closer than it was.

 

You'll have to sort out getting it the rest of the way though :biggrin:

Hi Jo a lad I use has got a wagon with a good crane on it and he will probably take the timber as well. Plus he's local if you want his number let me know, he is a good price too.

it's my opinion that something of great size or age should go to be something other than firewood.

 

i know it's a dream but if there is space then you get more money from a tree through milling than if you just sell it for firewood. yes it's a bigger outlay of money initially but if you do it all the time you get a greater return.

We don't do firewood or milling. Timber is a waste product for us which gets sold on.

 

By all means make me an offer for it.
