Especially when they use wet wood to dry it and cut down native forests in eastern Europe and transport it hundreds of miles.. -
It is quite normal.. Often get business owners asking to do a job at their home and wanting to put it through the business. I refuse to actively be part of their fraud. I will omit an address and invoice a business, but I would not put works at an address where I had not worked..

How long do the batteries hold their charge? Thinking of getting one to keep in the car for when quoting. I don't often work on the tools any more but occasionally I have a 5 min job or call out that I could easily do if I had a saw with me and it works out expensive for me to send a team.. I carry a silky already..

Thanks for the advice, turns out there is a small inline fuel filter that needed a quick clean..

This is how we deal with arb waste, but it is not really worth doing, especially now as the price of the wood for biomass keeps going up.. What with the 20% moisture content requirement I can't see small scale firewood production being commercial viable in the coming years. s

The air filter was checked.. The smoke is not from chip or belts.. It is coming out of the spout but I believe the exhaust exits through there..

How concerned should I be? Our 400hr Vermeer bc1000xl is smoking lots when on full revs. Not seen it myself but they are pretty sure its not belts..

He could just run it across his land, still cutting all the roots, potentially leaving your trees unstable in years to come. There is very little you can do about it and proving it was damage caused by his utilities going in many years later is likely to be impossible... Try and come to an amicable solution is my advice. You dont look to have many neighbours...

It can be done, but if done without care all your concerns are valid.. NJUG_vol_4_issue_2.pdfNJUG.pdf

I have no idea, I have never used any of them, I imagine similar faults/breakages.. We have stopped buying them as although they are well liked by the climbers they do not hold up the abuse that employees subject them too.. I expect they would last considerably better when used by someone who paid for them..

Due to regs, hearth takes up 36% of room space?
benedmonds replied to Buel's topic in Firewood forum
No I don't. Morsø S81-90 MORSOE.COM The Morsø S81 is a different and exciting insert, specially designed for smaller rooms. The frame is not included in the price. -

We found this was a problem in our narrow living room, so went for a morso inset stove. -
When the log is too heavy for 1 loader.. Biggest log should be 3.6 ton according to calculator.. VID-20200519-WA0002.mp4

We have had a clear out and have a load of dead saws. Any idea on value as a job lot..? This is an estimate as some are just a boxes of bits.. 084 2x 044 (One might be a 441 or even an 064) 3X 026 3x261 3x200t in bits 3x150t in bits Husqvarna 61 Many will have had bits missing especially plastics and the bars are almost all gone. Some have been dead for years. We are not mechanics and as soon as something is deemed economically not worth fixing we junk it but keep it for spares. We have too many spares now..

Paying off Finance with bounce back loan?

£50k deposited in our account today.. Scary how easy the process was.. -
Better pic of the 3m logs from smaller long dead tree..

We have felled 2 redwood trees, one was standing dead for 7 years, the other 1 year. I guess much will go for firewood but shame not to mill some of it. Open to offers, but would rather one person takes it all. It is currently behind a 3.25cm wide gate, but if that is an issue we can move it outside (in 3m os shorter lengths). The dead one is currently cut into 3m sections (except the butt which was too heavy for our loader) the other is on the deck but yet to be cut up? Located NG11 ODH

Paying off Finance with bounce back loan?
benedmonds replied to benedmonds's topic in Business Management
Paying off other loans with it is a way to reduce costs and therefore better help you through these challenging times. So perfectly valid. Finance companies are going to lose a fair few customers too. There will as always be loads on unintended consequences.. We have built our business with very low levels of debt and that has meant we were in a good position to survive the current disaster. I have gone for the maximum we could get which once we pay off the current finance on the chipper will leave us with a decent chunk that we could use or just sit on.. -

If you have other finance, this is cheaper so could save you money. It is free for 12 months. If you are thinking about getting finance in the next 6 years, this is cheap and easy to get. But yes you do still have to pay it back so should be carefull.
