Dosent sound odd , every night i get tea ready , put them to bed , which does seem to be getting later every few months , then go into the workshop for a couple of hours A mate of mine told me to enjoy every second with them , because it wont be long till they have other interests and daddy isnt the centre of there little world anymore

We used to use a zettylmyer {small pivot steer volvo } They are very cheap good ground clearance , fairly good in the woods , with good hydraulic power You can run splitters from it and probably a hydraulic flail
-
Your right the whole day revolves around time Having to drop them of bang on time , and every minuite counts in the day Get the job finished as quick as you can , no matter what Then that horrible journey home , hoping that there wont be a traffic jam ahead Getting to school to pick them up , on time , with a big sigh For them to say whats for tea { if only they knew}

I can bribe them to help deliver logs, but trying to get them to sit in a tractor for 8 to 10 hrs , i dont think i could cope with the barrage of questions , or the arguments So i get Grey Git to drive , i sit at home with feet up The only problem i have with grey git [ and its a bigy] is he will keep changing the radio station Should i thretten him with the sack, or use violence ?

I left my logging yard 3 years ago and have stopped selling logs Do i have to pay back business rates if i get pulled up
-
I gave up the rent on my yard nearly years ago now , the new guy was wanting to move in straight away , so we struck up a verbal deal that he would buy my remaining stock of approx 2-3 wagons of dry lengths stored inside for 2 years, loads of rings and a bit of mess to clean up deal done, as he only had 2 weeks to leave his old yard , thought i was helping him out i did. Sent him the bill and waited , cant afford it at the moment , he said He paid 2 small cheques then nothing , he dosent answer his phone, i told him if he cant afford it , to at least pay some , nothing I text him i will have to take you to court , nothing All the logs i have sold i have only had 1 loss , a bounced cheque for £80 It would have to be the last load i sold The sad thing is he was a mate of mine What should i do ????? GRRRRRR
-
yes they are very good i had one it just fell to bits and it allways left some in I think the tipper conversion was about 3k with a split swinging board to seperate 2 single loads you could back down a narrow alley and tip without getting out just a yank on a rope to unlatch the back door I was difficult to tip in garages a few close calls tipping inside and of course when the logs came out the pickup would rise 6" or so
-
I got thinking , my best purchase to do with firewood has got to be my tipping pickup . It would take about 15 to 20 mins to through out 1.5 cube of logs , the pickup would hold 3 cube and take about 30 secs to empty Whats your best buy ??
-
Thanks for that very interesting
-
It does seem to be that way , but no tacho or hgv licence ???

Does anyone run a chip truck on the forum I was talking to a fella in the know today , that you can run them on red , dont need a tacho and dont need a hgv licence I dont want to open a can of worms and i know it is a loop hole but people are doing it

Hmm not sure , dont do it certainly springs to mind Number 1 you have to enjoy splitting logs , if you dont enjoy hard work dont start Number 2 Ther are lots of ways to split logs eg big proccesers and splitters , these are very expensive , ive been there lots of overheads and quick throughput , you can make a lot of money with a sawbench and splitter Last year i used the mconnel and splitter to split 4 pickups in the day £200 per pickup BIG ISNT ALLWAYS BEST Number 3 Got to be safety , in my time i only grazzed my finger once , thats with no guards on anything and a modified splitter so if you are accident prone dont start and be happy
