    Perhaps I am being dumb here if I have 8kg of timber at 32% moisture how do I calculate the weight at 11% moisture, is it just simple arithmetic calculation or is there another way?

    Steve thanks for your advice, did you find a difference about the size of material you could cut between the 2, also how does the blade handle "bent" timber?

    I would like some help please ASAP. I am looking to purchase a firewood processor have one in mind have finance sorted etc. Was going to purchase one with a circular saw blade and TCT's. Rep has just told me they have a special on the same model but with a chainsaw. 1) Size of log you can process is smaller with Blade but Blade is easier to keep sharp ? Is that right, Also will blade "snag" and possibly wear out drive belts? 2) Is sharpening the blade on a chainsaw easier if I buy a bench grinder(yes I have read the other thread) Its just I think the blade will tend to pull to one side if the chain is not sharpened properly. Will the chain snag? Any advice/experience would be appreciated

    I have the chance at a lot of Western Hemlock at a very good price. Has anybody processed this into firewood. 1) Does it dry easily and does it burn well? 2) Does it split easily and is it very wet? 3) The research that I have done shows that it is as good to burn as other softwoods, is this really so? Thanks in advance for your answers. Any hints or tips will be noted.
