Hi all,

 

Is there a demand for log splitter hire or log splitter and man? Anyone do it or thinking of it? Any advise would be great thanks because it would be a big investment at 19 haha! I'm not expecting there to be 1000's in it or constant work I'm just thinking as a weekend thing or the actual hire any day it's required!

 

Cheers:) :thumbup:

Do you mean a small splitter or one for over size timber?

 

Assuming you mean a small one you could get a bit of work if you've got a chainsaw and can turn a tree into firewood for someone.

 

Bigger ones I think would be hard to pay off unless you get a long one then you could try and make oak stakes if you could get suitable wood and there could be some money in that.

Hi, thanks for the reply. Yes sorry I meant small splitter more for houses than company's and maybe some my self to sell! But I like the idea of the oak stakes! :)

Yea it's a good idea. Just as a personal input we sell 1000's of cubic metres a year and I don't have a splitter. For how much big stuff (+14" that won't go through the processor) we get, it works out about a weeks work for someone per year. I hate chainsawing and splitting so would much rather get someone in and pay them!
