    <p>Hi Mark,</p>

    <p> </p>

    <p>Air dried yew is likely to be awful to cut, but I can give it a go. Let me know when you are up and I'll see what I can do.</p>

  2. <p>Hi Jeremy - sounds bloody heavy! I'll post some photos on Saturday, or if you can PM me your phone number over, I'll text them to you. J</p>

  3. <p>No. I don't dry burr any more - no need. It always sells green. Sorry!</p>

  4. <p>I'm not sure yet. I have plenty of homes for it, but I will have a lot in the next year. Is reasonably lumpy (non-processor grade) OK, or does it need to be smaller and straighter?</p>

  5. <p>It's not on a pallet, it's just a couple of board shrink wrapped together. The wrap is very cheap on eBay</p>

  6. <p>I just take a slightly liberal approach to size and weight. So if it's supposed to be 120cm long and 25kg, the chances are it's 140cm long and 30-35kg. I've not been called up on it yet.</p>

    <p>The issue you'll have with the big LM15 is getting it from here to you. You could have the container directed to you and then just send the LM1s out from there. If the container comes to me, you've got a ferry and some distance to cover on the road. </p>

    <p>I'll speak to Ed this evening and see what he can do.</p>

    <p>Hi Lee,</p>

    <p> </p>

    <p>Only have one yew log drying at the moment and it's quite pippy, though very very clean. I assume pippy would be unusable?</p>

  9. Hi Gavin,

     

    I do sell single boards, yes. What did you have in mind?

  10. Not a problem Mark - thanks anyway!

  11. Hi Flanagaj,

     

    Not a tree surgeon no - started milling a good while before I took my certificates. I'm lucky that I live on country estate so got my first logs from the forester. I now have an arrangement with a tree surgery company too. Estates are a good way to go, but you really need a foot in.
