  1. 10 ton a week :ohmy: thats a shite load of charcoal. To be honest we would find it very hard to produce less than half of that. We have two kilns that will produce approx 2-3 hundred kg of charcoal each, a burn would take say 15hrs and then you shut it down for ideally 4 days. If its opened before hand it could relight and then no charcoal just dust:sad:. Plus we are replenishing are wood stock.

     

    May i ask what does he need that much charcoal for??

     

    Cheers Ian

  2. Yes, i carved the spoons and Knives by hand the spoons can take up to 2hrs depending on what size .The knives ,(i use one as a butter knife at home) they take about 45 mins now. All the bowls where turned on a lathe, all self taught but looking for a course bloody expensive tho. The clocks i just made up as i went along. Been doing the turning for about 3mths and carving about 6.

  3. It's shorts and t-shirts with them, there both about 6ft long charcoal burners. you should see them when they get going they glow.
