Sitka spruce all winter here I have a chunk of wet wellingtonia, only enough to make 4 logs, but can't wait to burn that next winter, as it's from one of the biggest trees in the country (fell off other week in the storms)

What about some sort of bitumen stuff? Everbuild Product Range - Everbuild ^most of that is about £10-£20 for a 5l tin

I've started using tesco aqueous cream, it's a bit like e45 but thalf the price. It seems to help a bit, the last few weeks my hands have been cold and wet all day

Spotted these on ebay if anyone local is interested In Pickering, £15 each WOODEN POTATO BOXES/ CRATES | eBay

I sold 10 cubic metres of lovely dry softwood to a posh hotel, but for some reason they insisted on stacking it outside against the wall of the building (probably blocking air bricks), and without any sort of cover. Seemed a waste of good wood

Could you use a 2nd conveyor (or get someone to help who likes throwing things)

You should've given them loads of abuse back, they would all phone up the council to complain :laugh1:

Yeh we've had about 6-8inch These pics are from yesterday, there was a little more today, and it's snowing tonight aswell

I used to work on a council strimming squad, there was no training apart from how to start the machine, no risk assesments, or checking the area over before starting There was a set amount that HAD to be done per day, you had to keep a fair pace. People often park right up (and overhanging) the grass to be cut. If you leave a bit uncut it won't get touched until you're back in a months time and some old biddy will phone in to complain you haven't done the job. We weren't told what safe distance to keep from parked cars, and some even got sprayed with cut grass lol The plastic visors get covered in scratches quickly, if it's a wet day your visor will be steamed up on the inside, bits of grass/dog poo stuck to the outside, and the strimmer head will be giving off clouds of water. It can be very hard to spot pedestrians, they can see you but keep walking towards you Also once hit a pedestrian with a stone

What about wood that is seasoned but wet from rain? Also maybe my moisture meter isn't very good but I have stuff which is very well seasoned in a shed and that's about 20%. Don't see how you could get it any drier at this time of year without a heated building/kiln? And even then unless you kept it in the house it would soak up moisture again

I've got two cameras, on the back of a Transit panel van One at the top of the rear doors showing a wide overall view Another by the numberplate pointing down at the towball for hitching up the trailer Also got another camera on the back of one of my trailers Screen in the cab is now on it's last legs, think I need to get a new one!

Does he hose the logs down to make them burn longer

Staff xmas night out

I've had a pair of stihl forestwear classics, blue ones, bib and brace. Have had them a few years but never been used that much and the fabric is coming away at the seams on the back:sneaky2: Don't think they still make these exact trousers though? There's also a set of the very basic stihl green bib and brace which seem to be lasting ok! (unsure of age) There's a million threads on this subject in the general section. Think the oregon/SIP trousers are quite durable

Do you net it or tarp it?

*Wonder* what it would be like

Would what it would be like on big trunks over say a metre thick?

Nice idea, careful with your mates arm though

How much to deliver to the highlands

What kinda size of wood do you use to make the kindling from? How much do the empty bags cost? Do you know if they're UV stable? ie could you season wood in them?

Bump, just wondering if there's any updates, has anyone else bought one, what's it like, how much do the empty nets cost, what can you sell a filled net for?

You do know, that's the law already, and has been for many years?
