  7. its the old saying "its not what you earn ,its what you spend" as above i think you would need to be fairly big in timber to make a good living . i do mine as a side line to my primary work which helps the timber side of it work with help from tractors trailors teleporters ect ect. But to do it efficiently and cost effective ,to stump up the capital to buy , hire those things in the first place i would need to shift a hell of alot more timber than i am , hence why its a side line.
