    Second that. Isuzu best option otherwise. Major downside of import LC70 is single cab = no seat recline which tall peeps need. Extra/Super/King/Club cab everytime...

    Pre mills, timber was sawn in the woods so there was no roundwood haulage; hence all the hauliers here do "roundwood and sawn timber haulage". Folks I work with in the forestry call it roundwood (including everything - log, chip, firewood, pulp, bars, posts, stakes etc); cord as arby folks call it to us is just "firewood" roundwood...

    That's because I got converted or should I say "returned to innocence" and don't call it cord anymore :laugh1: Now my inbox is full of roundwood so there's no room for cord except paracord, shockcord :lol: Will sort inbox out

    HOOOORAYYYY!!!! :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup::thumbup::thumbup: At last! I've been too scared to start a campaign for correct terminology, but you've opened the way, thank you!!! There is no such thing as cordwood fellas...
  9. TimberCutterDartmoor

  10. TimberCutterDartmoor

  11. TimberCutterDartmoor

  12. TimberCutterDartmoor

  13. TimberCutterDartmoor

    Bang on mate. Make sure it's rapeseed tho mate, not soya, sunflower et al Using Vegetable Oil to Replace Chainsaw Oil | Eartheasy Blog VEGETABLE OIL FOR LUBRICATING CHAIN SAWS

    You'll still be warm
  16. TimberCutterDartmoor
    Aye tis getting tedious now !
  17. TimberCutterDartmoor
    but still more than twice the price of rapeseed oil. Why the h would you spend that if rapeseed has given satisfactory service? That seriously adds up when you're getting through 30 litres a fortnight...

    Your trailer looks tidy; trade in against a tipper (nugent doing bonkers trade-ins at the moment for example i.e. £2k for scrap*) and you'd be sorted. *Or they were a month back when I was shopping!
  19. TimberCutterDartmoor
    Roughly: >10 £8.15/t 10>20 £9.15 20>30 £10.15 30>40 £10.85 40>50 £11.55 50>60 £12.75 60>70 £13.05 70>80 £13.65 80>90 £14.15 90>100 £14.45 100>110 £14.95 110>120 £15.45 120>130 £16.25 130>140 £16.75 this for artic.
  20. TimberCutterDartmoor
    Agreed; loose cubic metre that is (loose logs occupying 1m3 space)
  21. TimberCutterDartmoor
    Ok so west devon isn't the lowest any more! £50; is that from arb waste? £50!!!
  22. TimberCutterDartmoor
    Green roundwood firewood is gold dust this year so seasoned must be rockin horse ****. Know folks with a lot of billets stacked up but not roundwood.
  23. TimberCutterDartmoor
    Got southern beech in west devon... Roundwood haulage no probs, hands tied on £40/t roadside tho.
  24. TimberCutterDartmoor
    I've had a few beauties eh! Lol. U know...
  25. TimberCutterDartmoor
    Varies regionally, a lot. £65 here but west devon is lowest so given larch is £28/metre roadside £65 aint that profitable...
