    Couldn't agree more. Best thing I ever did. Small firms fear it will lose them higher margin, fast cashflow, domestic work tho.
  2. TimberCutterDartmoor
    Absolutely.

    It's not quite a 15% gain though since circa 1 tonne hardwood roundwood at say £40+vat (ignore the haulage for now) might yield 1.5m3 loose logs at (here anyway) £76+vat @ 5% per m3... So if my math is right for every £8 you claim back (from £48 inc per tonne) you pay the vat man £5.70. Or is that a complete balls up?!

    Your 550xp let you down and now this?!

    What do you consider a "good wage"? After expenses, are you sure you're going to clear £100/day? i.e £24k/year. That's not a lot these days. This industry isn't renowned for making people well off!

    I did a little donation; love it when people chip in like this. Though it will never undo the loss to his family et al. https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/Keith-palmer

    To be honest, I'm quite shocked that ya'all raving about the X27. It looks a characterless implement if ever there was one. I've also been concerned as to shaft snapping below the head as reported online...

    Up the (finger) nail bed. "Ah ya f---er"... Rich winch owners who never wear out their compressed cables wouldn't know anything about this. Not a waste in front of a harvester. Bumps production, pays for itself.

    Nonsense and also officially wrong. Good straight softwood generally is 0.7 - 0.75. Hardwood typically 0.55 or 0.6 for straighter stuff. See FC Blue Book if you don't believe me.

    Multiple windblow. Granny - Old tree in a crop never felled. Outlaw - Tree too difficult or uneconomic to harvest. Tassle - the tip of the trees leader. Brash Mat - obvious

    Is it softwood bars or hardwood cabbage wiggles?

    Not my area of expertise at all. Got a fibreglass Oregon (aka Bahco) one for de-jamming the processor lol but it's been years since I've split wood manually. Friends want to make an educated purchase for dealing with a decent amount of rounds of all species; trying to help them, much use I am! Any feedback gratefully received. Thank you. Edit: Or Hultafors?...

    Bucking is yank for cross cutting or "ringing up". Snedding aka "rigging out" or best term = delimbing. "Legging in" - buttress removal in front of harvester. I've heard brash management as "pulping up", "trashing tops", "dicing up"... Any more...?
