im kind of looking for a cheap 3-point-linkage crane
-

i wear Stein boots, they seem really good considering they were only £80ish at the APF last time round

Was just watching a Logging DVD and it started talking about a machine called a Super Snorkel, it is litteraly mad! Its a crazy bit of kit and looks soo hard to operate! Think of it like a drag line crane with a grapple on it.

haha yeah its cheap, most of our wood we get for free though and its not the highest quality
-
most of our customers take it like that, granddads been selling firewood like this for probably 30 years + and still using the same saw bench haha, never had any complaints
-
£50 a load like this, £60 for all ash

Raptor is much much better (Old Pic)

haha thanks, its for me to though i hate using his saw with no dogs and the bar is too heavy for its size hahaha, even made him up my first chain, with the rivet spinner and chain breaker he gave me
-
shinny new socket set loads of thermal socks! Got my granddad a set of large felling dogs for his ms440 seen as tho there is only a little bit of a dog on his saw and a BRAND NEW Oregon bar, now for the first time ever he doesnt have to file down and drill oiler holes in heavy old dolmar bars to make them fit fit!
-
yup down here tooo, started snowing bout 4ish
-
hey tommer, asked my granddad about the austin, he didnt know what model it actually is, and its not the orginal engine either which was a petrol, its now got a 6 litre ishhhh diesel in it
-
yeah get one! they are sweeet! use my sachs dolmar 153 with a 36" bar and ripping chain works a treat!
-
nope no pic btw it isnt the one side mounted on our fordson if anyone was wondering, i would pay someone if they could pull that off without and angle grinder it was just a smaller dark green one, dunno home to describe one of these lol
-
we had one stolen the other day
-
yeah we cover ours, i know people say that the wood "sweats" when its covered but we use old tarp that is ripped and no good for much else, this keeps the worst off but still allows the wind to blow through and under it, we also use sheets of tin on some of the log piles, this gets the rain to run off (and would keep the snow off if we got any) and still allows the wind to get at the wood.
-
thats the old timers for you
-
ooo sweeet! Yeah you really cant beat a bit of oak! A farmer by us is doing a barn conversion, the oak was felled off his land aboiut 2 years ago and we are going to start milling it over christmas (hopefully) Yeah i am really pleased with it! Glad it is making some money to Ahh thats a bum keep on at them you'll have one some day
-
Just thought i would show you this, this was put down in the summer, our yard is normally under a foot or so of mud, half of it still is but it is better
-
Found these pics on the computer, totally forgot we did this milling, done back in october, some really nice oak and we got the big saw out
