  1. Location is Worsbrough, Barnsley.
  2. Got some timber coming up for sale in next few weeks/months one lot of mainly ash with the odd bit of syc about 8-20"dia around 60-80m3 and another lot after that of poplar from 6-30"dia. All good access for collection, can be cut to required length. £40 for Ash, Polpar make me an offer.
  3. It's the same overhand as a standard hi cap, the single cab has same back on and with the airbags you can't tell it's carrying anything by looking.
  4. Arches cab be ordered through H S Atec, company in Wakefield make them but have to be bought through agents
  5. Yes mate 130 crewcab, cheers
  6. Aye got 4 of the buggers now
  7. No mate that's my single cab 99 plate, the new one is crew cab
  8. I made it myself, ordered all the materials from John Adams
  9. Hi Jon, a few pics here as requested.
  10. I've just built another Landy tipper, the aluminium materials cost £1500 from John Adams coach builders, couple of hundred for steel work
  11. Ha no he knows it needs seasoning, it's more the difference between what a tonne of green timber is worth compared to a tonne of seasoned. Had the same trouble convincing him that a builders bag of wheat didn't weigh the same as a builders bag of sand.
  12. Let me explain a little. The guy is a local farmer I've known for years. I have no room at my yard for processing logs so agreed to supply him with the timber to process himself, he's just set up for doing it after having a biomass boiler fitted to run the farm. So I take all the timber there and he just processes it when he can fit it in. I told him I wanted £40t for it delivered to his. I didn't explain to him that my tonne would be wet and his tonne when sold would be dry,so I'm going explain to him, but he's likely to think I'm trying to lift his leg so just wondered how others do it. But I'll just give a price per m3, mc not an issue then. No money has changed hands yet as it's a new venture for him but I've got a few hundred m3 coming up soon so just wanted to get it sorted before then, or I'll just sell it roadside.
  13. How much do you guys charge/pay for seasoned cord per m3, hardwood and softwood? Some of the timber I supply to a guy as sometimes been felled a few months before it's extracted and delivered then it's sat in his yard months before he processes and sells it by the ton, so when he wants to pay me by the ton I'm losing out.
  14. Is it from being heated up maybe?
  15. Saw a duck with ducklings yesterday only a few weeks old.
  16. At least they managed to save the chain.
  17. Just started this at the weekend, 5hrs fri and same again next day.
  18. Full roof offers more security if you have barn doors above you tail gate, whole back can be locked up then
  19. That's pretty much what I had in mind, rear links hold 5t so is doable, might be a bit bouncy on the road tho :-/
