With my weenie processor it takes my an hour to fill a cube meter bag on small stuff. I certainly would prefer not to have anything heavier to move at point of delivery especially when I am blocking a rat run road in the rush hour as I was last night. Guess I was not to popular. A
-
How do you handle them at point of delivery?. I use pallets and roll the bag and pallet into the customers garage, they might be a bit to tall and fall over on the tail gate of the trailer. A 1 cu m pallet of hard can be a bit of a handful. But they could allow me to get more product into a drop which on soft would be a bonus. A

When I went there I did not see many trees, plenty over is Norway and Sweden though. A

Please indicate roughly where you are based, transport is expensive and ideally you want some that is close to hand. A

The bags you want for firewood are vented log bags, these have a capacity of .5 cube, .8 cube or 1 cube depending on supplier and size speced. 1 tonne bags are usually what are known as builders bags, these have a usual capacity of .5 cube, they are designed to hold a tonne of sand or aggregate. The sides of these bags are pretty dense, that does not allow good air flow through the bag so the logs tend to go mouldy. I have had a couple of batches of bags from Bag Supplies, they are decent quality. A

Actually got to see this match for once, (on the TV). Half time score reflected the play I thought, France slightly ahead. The French subs were I thought crap, they came from the team wopped by the Italians, the English subs were pretty good, that was the difference in the end. Come on Scotland, would it not be sweet to award the French la wooden spoon !!. A

Agreed. Police wont do anything anyway as no real offence has been commiited (yet), they dont want to know about untill there is an arrestable offence committed. They dont have the manpower these days. A

Absolutely no problem, we have all been there and done that. A

You would be surprised, sell it from late August onwards. Thats when folks start thinking about keeping warm next winter, at the moment people are paying off credits cards post xmas, then it will be summer hols. A new one would be 5k + . A

Hi and welcome to the site; This should be in a new thread as it derails this one, ie it deflects the original question raised. Paste and copy it into a new thread then I will comment. Thanks A

You can retrofit a boiler into Ironheart but from memory its only a small one for domestic hot water. I would recommend you also install a boiler control unit into the return pipework, this allows the appliance to get up to operating temperature before allowing cold water to run through it. Cost wise the standard non boiler model is about £3690 from memory including VAT, I am back in the showroom tomorrow so could confirm if needed. You would need to add installation including safety sign off and the flue parts needed to that. I am expecting an Esse price rise within the next three months. A

Esse Ironheart will do all that, got 9.7kw of heat to the room though so even with poor insulation you will need a room of 116 cubic meter volume to put it in. Ironheart - Multi-fuel cooking stove that burns logs beautifully A

EBAY dosn't look anywhere near 8 cubic meters to me!!

I would have said 2 cube max in the heap unprocessed and some split. A -
FS1212 is a diesel fuel filter, usually found on Cummins engines. Do you want a filter to filter diesel fuel or to filter and condition the engine coolant mixture. If the former then FS1212 if the latter talk to Fleetguard, coolant filters are prefixed WF. I used to be a Fleetguard distributer. Coolant mix filters contain chemical packs that alter the PH of the cooling system toward Alkali. The chemical pack is different for different water capacities (as do much additive can do as much harm as to little) and for either long life antifreeze or the traditional eythelene glycol antifreeze.

Hi and welome to the forum. Prices for logs do vary across the country as does quality and moisture content. I would suggest the best way forward is to ring your local log boys and see what they are charging and for what sort of volume. Also ask are the logs sawn to the same length, if so how long, what the moisture content is, and what is the volume they are selling in, ie builders bag ( .5 cube usually), tipped load ( if so measurements of body), 1 cube bag, etc. Last winter and early this winter I sold soft logs very dry at £80 a cube + 5% VAT. A

unless its 30% under winter price people wont buy it. You dont want to be doing it at that rate as it kills any profit. A

If the stove only weighed 60lb it cant have been very strong. Most multifuel stoves of the size of that door are 70kg at least. Suspect thats a journalistic error. A

Leaving the secondary air control open will do the same thing OK. A

Funnily enough I bought in a 45 footer of processed oak and am now getting repeat orders for it. The second 45 footer is more ash, beech though. A

Agreed, I plan to put about 100 tonnes through mine this year, next year a bigger machine with hyd in feed and hyd deck. There was a post here a while ago from someone who said he was putting 700 tonnes per year through a 700, thats a lot of work and time. A
