  2. Watch out with renewals I let our house insurance auto renew each year then when the garage got burgled and we made a claim turned out the 60 grand cover we thought we had was now 2500 they had reduced it on renewal without telling me although it was in the renewal booklet I never read cover to cover so my fault expensive lesson learned at least by ringing up you can check your cover is going to stay the same

  8. Hi, ive got the ryobi version and do about 30 cube a year for personal use. i, had it about 5 yr and no problems it is slow but i can stand there all day where as with an ax i was knackered after an hour. it does knotty stuff pretty well and experience soon tells you the best way of loading the log. anything to knotty i chop up with the saw after. i cut all my logs to 18 inch and have split oak and beech rings that have taken two of us to lift onto it. would def recommend one Chris

  16. hi i prefer to split as the torn fibres get very dry and catch nice and easy but dont think there is much in it when fire alight maybe a bit less waste when splitting as no sawdust chris
  17. Hi, I was owed £3000.00 and took this to a small claims court won but did not receive a penny i also sent bailiff round but they would not take stereo computer etc unless i payed the storage till sold i got an attachment of earnings order she was earning 650 pcm and her employers were to pay anything over 450 to a company to pass to myself they ignored that and were fined by the court which the court kept the proceeds she then dropped her earnings to 450 so i still didnt get a penny she was renting and when she moved the court said i had to trace her without harassing her to start the process all over again. In my opinion unless they own a house dont bother it cost me 300 pounds and a lot of stress to get nothing if somebody wants to play the system you cant win as it favours the bad payer. I also once sued someone who owed me 15000 pounds to much for the small claims court they counter sued we got in an expert witness cost 700 who said that the job was fair for the price agreed but there was a couple of small faults in the end it cost me 3000 legal fees and i was advised to drop it and the guy suing me would do the same in the end the solicitors were the ones to make the cash . Someone mentioned muckspreading wish i had the balls for that satifaction guarenteed Chris
