Every time i go out delivering logs at the moment i see a new guy or girl has started So i started counting them in a 15 mile radius , i got 15 doing 100 plus tonnes , and at a guess another 20 - 30 doing less It seems like my area is saturated with log suppliers , yet it hasnt affected trade at all even by putting the price up How many in your 15 mile radius ?

I have been asked to chip wet timber into a shed around 30cube approx around 15 ft high He has been told that if you shut the doors and vent the top it will dry quicker , i tried to tell him , but he wants to try it Some french guy told him Has anyone heard of this before

Horizontal splitter or processor ?
Busy Daddy replied to Mortimer Firewood's topic in Firewood forum
I have a 30t posch splitter they are good but , i havent used it for over a year , you have to cut the timber to fit the machine and sort it out from the rest of the pile I think if you had a wagon full of big timber it would come into its own At the moment i use a palax and ring anything up to 16" anything bigger is ringed and put through a quick pedastel splitter The big posch is up for sale possibly -
AC Price Just ordered some blades from saturn machine knives there is a 4 week waiting list for them
-
Josy You can chip any timber you want as long as it is metal and mud free The blades will last a few hundred tonnes without needing to be replaced , you can sharpen in the machine with a small angle grinder very carefully and only a couple of times . The blades are fairly cheap so just bin them after that You can chip in very cold conditions , the scandanavians do , in extreme frosts the ice does blunt the blades quicker

John I have never seen one with a bar fitted I took my wire off to crane feed i found i was loosing time resetting it every couple of miutes
-
John the safety bar is a safety wire now
-
Palax combi without a doubt
-
The cheapest place to buy a blade from is caledonian forestry for your palax bennets is a little more but i find it cuts better they make them from slightly thicker metal so they tend not wobble at speed so much They can retooth as well but you loose a bit of diameter i think they said it was a third of the price of a new one to retooth
-
Mr T aylor have you tried Ernest Bennets in Darlington They can do any size blade they did our last 5ft dia blade They do my palax blades , and they make them , i have one on order at the moment i will let you know an exact price but around £500
