the living elms will regenerate anyway,,so start from scratch mate,,,, -
mate the last three threads are dead on,,,I had one bloke screw me because i said I was dropping a ton off in my pick up,,,,he weighed one in his kitchen scales estimated there was thirteen in his barrow.he mutiplied it and said he only was giving me £35,,instead of my £50 asking price(was a while ago),,,when I said he can give me my logs back he got arse-y,,,so i let it go and learnt my lesson,,,,now its by the load,,,pick-up,,or transit tipper ,,,,and net bags,,,,,no complaints since,,,,plus it was a good load,,cheeky,b,,,,,d,,,,,

tend to wack my prices up by £5 a yr,,,as fuel costs increase etc,,,,used to be £0.85 a litre now £1.13 a litre,,,,love to wack the cost of back breaking logs by that much,,,
-
been thinking of renting another barn next to me for firewood storage,,but the figures dont add up, £2500 pa for barn,,£200 electric,£200 insurance for harvestor,£500 for net sacks, £150,chains maintenance, £500 diesel(for tractor)£470 accountant,as log business wood put my arb into vat bracket,,,,basicaly not far off £5000 running costs,,,,against average arb waste 50 ton give or take,,,,x £60 =£3000...that doesnt even include delivery of logs??? maybe I will just keep doing the odd load too tidy up the end of a days arb work,,,,,trouble I have the same as everyone else is tough to wack price up of load,,as others round here sell at crazy prices,,,,,,tough one.
-
I had no joy from them either,,,,,,,scope in the market I say ....
-
good point,,back up is inportant,,and if it saves my back,,anything is better that current dilema,,,,,like to hear back from any palax users,,,,,,,(doesnt sound good that?lol)
-
agreed sawdust,,been watching for ages,,,and as its quite a moral,,decision,,as always cracked it out with chainsaw and axe,,want to get it right,,,,,sawblade seems to create less waste,,,palax seems cheaper than pilkkie,,,but performance is inportant,,along with quality,,,,thanks guys,,,
-
hi wanting to buy processor,,but am confused with various models,,,Palax?pilkkie?jappa?,,,,then theres sawblade or chainsaw blade,,,,,obviously it depends on percentage of arb or forestry,,generating wood,,,Im,,,a mix 50% of both,,,,,,but happy to buy in,,,,,,any feedback gratefull,,,,,,,
