  1. Suffolk Woodchips Ltd are looking to increase their buying area and volumes for arb chip. If you accept or produce arb chip and are based within 10 miles of the M25 or east of the A1 up to Peterborough we would be interested in speaking with you to buy your arb chip. From 1 load to 10 lorry loads a month, we just send you the weights via social media/text (pictures of weight tickets or a copy of them) so you can invoice us at month end and we pay on 30 days Please get in touch if you want more for your arb chip. Phone, text or whatsapp Mike on 07881 904100 to discuss in more detail. Thanks
  2. Steve, I have grabber at's on my np300 and yes it didn't handle great in the wet/ice/snow. Have now thrown about 150kg of firewood in the back and it's a different truck and handles really well. Ok you might not want a load of firewood in there (i dont have a canopy on mine) but you can use something else.
  3. From experience, dry roundwood will always produce far more fines than slightly more damp or wet wood. Also if the stop bars are preventing long sliithers they will be creating extra cuts from the knives so will therefore be creating more fines. Multi blade chippers such as the Jenz and Heizohack will also create more fines than dual blade chippers.
  4. Suffolk Woodchips Ltd are looking for a full time tree harvester operator to fell small diameter trees with a Bracke energy head and a self propelled wood chipper driver for our operation producing wood chips for energy, equine and horticultural markets. We are based at Brandon in the centre of the 47000 acres of Thetford Forest (Norfolk) and due to ongoing contracts can offer all year round work and regular working hours. We are a small but friendly team looking for someone who can operate, service and maintain machinery (training will be given). Forestry crane experience is an advantage but isn't a necessity. It isn't hard work but attention to detail and pride in your/our work is required.I started in this line of work from a farming background with (no forestry experience) over 25 years ago and have never looked back -- maybe now it could be your turn.If the above is of interest to you, please give us a call on 01842 813555 and ask to speak to Mike Farrow or Mike Edwards about the role. Alternatively give Mike Farrow a call for a chat about the role on 07881 904100We don't have a website at the moment but you can find us on facebook.We look forward to hearing from you.
  5. Cheers guys. Have emailed Large's now so will hopefully get one sorted
  6. Anyone breaking broken a hakki pilke 1x37 processor. I need a shunt valve as the shaft on mine snapped today so if anyone has one I would be interested. Thanks in advance
  7. We base almost all decent hardwood stacks at 55% timber 45% air and as a general rule of thumb its not too far out.
  8. Call Martyn Neve, got large amounts cut already and a huge amount to cut over the next few months in Norfolk 07860 859633
  9. Top man Steve. Just draw them all and put a list up at the end or you'll be there for hours fella
  10. Try Martyn Neve - Even Forestry 07860 859633 He's always cutting hardwood and has hauliers who can deliver to Cambs.
  11. If you dont have any luck let me know and I may be able to help as a friend has an industrial kiln at a sawmill near Norwich and could possibly assist. Drop me a pm if you're stuck
  12. I came across one of his early chats with Eddie on Radio 4 one afternoon almost as soon as they began and have followed them religiously up to today. Can honestly say I have sat with a tear in my eye on more than one occasion and found it spellbinding. I think its probably the best bit if radio broadcasting I have listened to on any station, any time, anywhere. A sad loss.
  13. I did think about it this morning but thought that all the neighbours would think i had a screw loose. Wish I'd done it now!
  14. Imo Ifor Williams trailers are seriously overated. The tippers are ok but any of the flats/plant trailers don't tow any where near aswell as either Brian James, or even better Blue Line trailers.
