  14. The said company,,,also hark on about how inported firewood has a high carbon footprint? errrrr hang on ,your shipping it all over the country,,having kiln dried it first? surely,,the quote " local guy who in his spare time produces firewood then delivers in his pick-up and might stack it" is at least keeping local wood local,providing a friendly face and low carbon footprint!

  18. sounds like this is ideal job to mill on site? lucas or peterson? save yourself the hassle of moving them?
  19. how much room do you need to set up the lucas? have oak take down coming up,In small back garden?
  20. hi Big j,,,,I own a woodmizer and plank most stuff myself, but on ocassions I get a lucas in as the tree is in the back garden and cant get it out, from past experience the lucas is pretty accurate for say 8x2`s,etc,,and you get some uniformity, which is good for picnic benches/sheds/log stores etc,,but a ball ache on larger stuff,,,in the ideal world i`d have both,,but that would = DIVORCE.....
  21. well said steve,,,
