That's No.3 for us. Number 1 is that billets always fully season as it is much easier for the wind to whistle through the pile. Number 2 You get another go at quality control as you get to see exactly what the customer is getting. It is surprising how much ends up in 'my pile' even though we had been rigorous at the billeting stage.

Any arbtalking veg growers in da house?
Marko replied to Tony Croft aka hamadryad's topic in The Lounge
I know it isn't everyone's cup of tea but just in case anyone else is trying to grow any giant veg this year I cut this 3.8kg vine of tomatoes this morning. It was for a "virtual" heaviest tomato vine competition on facebook.

So if you see me naked riding a Segway through the woods please give me a cheer as I must have lost a stone.

Or have it delivered to my yard. Use my pump truck and just leave me 1m3!

And that is the question... has it got an internal pressure relief system? If I put a feed to a log splitter from the pump and drop the return back into the reservoir it should be ok? I know a tractor has a pressure relief valve in its back end so nothing silly can happen and I really didn't want to power this up without one. Is it better to put in a separate pressure relief just to be sure?

The pump is fastened to a 8 horse 3 phase motor. It was originally fitted to a large guillotine for cutting wads of paper.

This time with the photos. Sorry.
-
I appreciate it is a long shot but does anyone know what the two screw fittings on top of the pump might be for?

I have always been very happy with my Felco secateurs but what would people recommend as the best loppers on the market and what about anvil or bypass?

I used to travel from Hastings to Preston on a Friday... the 300 miles usually took 11 hours. Average speed for the trip was rarely above 30 mph. #lifestooshort

Hard to argue that, in your case, it would be Farming I would have thought it would be hard to say it is farming or forestry for those buying in artic loads and processing in a yard and distributing their goods for sale in a sign written truck. Whether the cord was arb arisings or forestry would be irrelevant?
-
There has to be a point where forestry finishes and the (industrial?) processing of timber starts. You might be able to argue forestry if you own the forest but if it is bought in wood then it would be stretching the point wouldn't it?

I really don't know how it could be worth anyone's time and effort to sell at such prices. But hey what do I know. Ours will be £120 a cube or it stays where it is.

Could it be a horse. They are a dab hand at pulling up hedge plants in their first year.

It took the two of them three hours 10am - 1pm. The lads had had enough as it was very warm. A rough guess would be 8-10 cubic meters. We have tried every way over the years and eventually settled on billets and then cut to length on a saw bench as required.

A very warm morning splitting logs into billets. Chickens spectated for the duration.

Lots of things to do, walks and cycling routes are listed on Mawddach Estuary - Walking, Cycling and Information for visitors to the Mawddach Estuary in Wales If you don't want to stop on proper sites I would get down there in the morning and just ask. I am sure you will be able to get a suitable arrangement with a farmer and some of the views are stunning.

As a seller of a similar plot very recently could I offer a view from the other side: I valued the land in question at 80% of the increase in value it would add to the property of the buyer. He thus bought it at a 20% discount to what it is now worth. He is happy and I am very happy. What it was worth to anyone else is of no interest to me or the buyer.
