  1. Just wondering if anyone using this machine and if so what are thoughts on it. Cheers
  2. It is a recommendation from survey, so basically you are saying to charge a day rate plus expenses I.e cable system. I'm ok with that, I just don't want to undercut or overcut myself
  3. Thanks for reply, I'm just wondering is there a standard rate as haven't priced before
  4. Hi Guys, looking to see what is the general rate for cable bracing, I have 2 insignus pines to brace, no splits, probably a 4t system but may go 8t. I am contracting in a climber to do it, it's my first time doing it so not sure what to charge. Direction re pricing would be greatly appreciated
  5. If there was a market for sawn cedar and prices were good then i would look at sending over by artic. There is good demand here but obviously the scale would be much bigger in Uk. It always sells but it can sit in yard for awhile at times, and for that reason if there was a ready made market for it then i would be much happier to see it move on the button
  6. Hi Guys, we have a sale of western red cedar coming up, just wondering how prices are over there and will speak with interested partys. Sawn to order from 3m - 8m in length. Cheers
  7. With all due respect, i made it clear to PM. I would much rather speak over phone with somebody interested first before any pictures are sent as we are not fully sure about letting her go
  8. Hi Guys, just putting it out there, will possibly be selling a 2003 3phase 8m static Serra Bavaria in the second quarter of new year. Pm if interested. Mill will be working until the day it leaves so in good working order. Cheers
  9. Yes it's a benmac 3.08. I understand wheel excavators won't be as stable as tracked but this is lifting machine when jib is extended out empty
  10. Hi guys, i have purchased an 8ton wheeled excavator for our sawmill with the view of fitting a timber grab for sorting logs. She's a 1992 machine but in very good nick. She came from holland. My issue is She's extremely unstable from the side even with an empty bucket with blade down, surely I'm missing something. I did notice on the opposite side to blade, there seems to be levelling rams above wheels but i can't figure is there a switch ar lever in machine to operate these rams as I've tried everything
  11. Yard is on two levels, bottom yard is flat, there is a slight hill up to next yard where we store logs, no tarmac or concrete in any of our yard. We mostly cut douglas fir and larch in 16ft, some big some small no animals
  12. Hi guys, looking for a yard forwarder, the more basic the better, for a small sawmill. Cheers
  13. Hi, just putting the feelers out, looking for a yard forwarder, the more basic the better. For a small sawmill yard. Cheers
  14. We are around 2.5hrs, but we would abviously put him up. Yes would definitely like to contact him
  15. It's funny over the years we had so many guys that would have done that job with their eyes closed and a smile on their face, but nowadays those guys don't really exist. Its a case of very high end jobs and more specifically no workforce to fall in, hence most guys have given up and moved on to other things.
