    i'm looking for a good bbq....got to be large, oil drum size, with a hotplate and preferably with a spit (electric) got my eye on a real mans bbq on tbay but at 300 quid i think its a bit steep now i know for a hotplate i could just lay some sheet metal down on grill, so i suppose i am looking for spit ideas oh yeah, posted this in firewood for the charcoalers who may know:001_cool:

    supplier near me already has it and says good things but for me....... not at all interested, lining directors pockets with easy money from my hard work make it free and i'll think about it, but i know there is a lot of paperwork with this and the wood has to monitered and recorded throughout the drying process. more time not spent producing or delivering the product ""I'm out""

    there is a guy on you tube who does the same thing with paper, i think he sells the contraptions on ebay too
  15. firewoodman
    how does it go in the tube then, and howdoes it come out? looks very good, does the sawdust absorb much water and take long to dryout?
  16. firewoodman
    looks good mate, did the mix go in wet and then compress the water out? love to see a vid of that working
  17. firewoodman
    yep it does
  18. firewoodman

  20. firewoodman

    i had a customer who insisted his firewood was clean, almost to planed finish, i told him this would cost more as more care and effort was involved to do this the wood needed to almost instant dry on the outside and needed to stay this way so it was stored in smaller tham M3 batches and was constantly moved into the sun and in shelted from rain it is easier to store in big pile, but wood goes mouldy, more effort and expense to store in crates, so pass extra on to client and add on the FUSSY TAX therefore premium product=premium price but i would rather do less work for a product recieved buy the ungrateful to just be burnt without a thought to the effort involved all of my wood is now stored in vented crates and undercover and some still goes mouldy fussy customer is now gone, but not to anyone local and my life is easier
  22. firewoodman
    they are fine mate. you are selling them to be burnt at the end of the day, they are not for decoration!! its the potato syndrome.....when you look at the outside, they are covered in crap (unless washed) but the inside is lovely!!! customers are after the heat, not the beauty. but if you can keep them cleaner you can charge more, but then its all relative to time, effort and expense in my opinon anyway!
  23. firewoodman

  24. firewoodman
