This has seriously concerned me. I am thinking of logs as a sideline to work my property and I have set a target of processing 200 cube this year to start off
-
What type of wood are you selling ... is it mainly pop or a mix?
-
What type of moisture meter have you bought and how much?
-
Whilst I wont actually be selling any logs until next season I really do think alot of you are under selling yourselves .... considering the time and effort a cube of hardwood has got to be worth minimum £80.

... and at some point I am definately going to need to stack them.

Critics Critics Critics ... Hey I`m still learning I did wonder about that .. but it is covered.

Well it is but that didnt stop my post hole borer walking.

Yes ... just started using them but the problem is that my tractor (John Deere 955) cant lift them to stack.

Chopped poplar with a sprinkling of elm encased in billets of poplar supported on pallets tenderly placed on bricks with a centre of old fence posts then season for one year … not a Marks and Spencer woodpile but a Dave Martin woodpile…. with a little help from tips gained on Arbtalk from people such as Davetaz and others.

I`m going to have two days off from the nineteen months I`ve had off since I sold my business ... apart from chopping logs but thats not really work is it

I worked in the petrol industry for 33 years self employed since the age of 21. Set up my last company in 1985 and built, re-developed and operated my own petrol stations and got quite a buzz out of it at times but just like all other industries it changed. One day I was sat at my desk and thought `I just dont enjoy this anymore`. I had the best cameras money could buy, great mountain bike, beautiful guns (I dont kill things though) quad bikes, horses, my own gym, nice house with five acres but I never got to enjoy any of it because I was always at work, so I sold because I figured it was time to find the time to smell the roses. You only get one shot so dont settle for hum drum.

This made me think of a phrase that I always used to quote after interviewing teenagers who would tell me they ultimately wanted to be Accountants, Lawyers, Architects etc etc ....... `Whos going to dig the ditches`

Scientists have found that many women develop `Hoover Disease` after a year of marriage. They make a continuous whining noise but dont suck anymore.

I think the medical term for that is `The Wife`
