  1. I’ve had them. Good boots. Plus screw fix guarantee everything for 12 months. If they start to fail after 11 months, go back to store, they will pull up the sales invoice from there system, and swap for new. No quibble, irrelevant of how much abuse you have given them.
  2. I might have the chance in buying bulk bags of mostly 4 by 2 off cuts from a timber manufacturing company. There might be some 5 by 2 and 6 by 2 in it as well, all cut to 150mm long ready to put through a kindlett machine. How many of you make your kindling from similar material rather than cutting softwood bars down to size ? I’m guessing it will make very good kindling, but probably more labour intensive stacking all the off cuts on the in feed belt, as opposed to round material. How many nets could you expect to get from a 800 by 800 by 800 bulk bag, ie half a cubic metre, and what size nets would you use ? Thanks for any help.
  3. Chris. I have some older spud boxes if you want to try a few. Might need a bit of patching, but with logs in they hold out ok. £ 20 each. Give me a call if keen. 07768 791084, Graham Cligg

    Happy to accept any hard / soft wood. Good access, concrete yards, forklift to assist unloading if needed.
  5. Retired climber, thanks for the reply. With it being double skinned stainless, do they radiate much heat out the sides, or is it upwards all the heat goes ie do they heat your lower legs and feet much if you are sat around them ?
  6. Anyone have any experience of the new style smokeless fire pits, such as those made by solo stoves ? They look smart and if they work as described would be good, but they aren’t cheap. Just wondering if anyone had any real life experience with them, and if they are as smokeless as they reckon to be.
  7. If you are still looking for blades, I have several spare sets from when I ran this same chipper, I think from memory one set is still brand new. All in good serviceable condition. Get them sharpened by a saw doctor, don’t do it yourself with a grinder and you will get the correct angles without heating the blade up. Call me if keen on 07768 791084 and I will see what I have. Based in Cullompton, Devon.
  8. It has to be to a minimum of silver. Am just trying to weigh up the pros and cons at the moment. Thank you for your response.
  9. Is it worthwhile joining construction line, and if so is it easy enough ? A company we do a little work for has made it a requirement to join. Just wandering if it’s worth all the hassle.
  10. Anyone have any knowledge of who the new owners of Hi line might be ?
  11. I don’t know, but John’s answer above looks the firm favourite.
  12. Looks like a major player in the Arb industry in the south west of England looking for a new owner in the very near future. Most people down will know who they are
  13. Hi Eric. Can you call me on 07768 791084 to discuss. Am keen on the timber. Many thanks, Graham.
  14. We have a fencing job coming up early next week for one of our regular clients in Virginia Water, Surrey. The job is quite straight forward, 2 straight runs of fencing, totalling 300 metres, across the middle of 2 fields so no fighting against hedges. We will be attaching equifence 1.25 metre high stock fence to the posts. As it’s out of our usual area I was wondering if there was anyone in the area able to knock the strainers and intermediate stakes in. We will erect all the wire etc. We will be on site to assist, just looking for machine and operator to knock the timber in the ground. Call or text me on 07768 791084 if able to help. Many thanks, Graham.
  15. Ok. Will do thanks. When you say not very pretty, does this mean knotty ?
