  6. Cheers Steve its been far too long since been on here.Been an interesting few year had 2 wee lads and embarked on a crazy sporting dream.Good to be back
  7. Hello,I am seeking softwood(pine cypress larch) poplar, horse chestnut and beech for useage in Timbersports training,2 years ago i got signed up to Stihls development programme and as such i go through around 5 to 8ton of timber each training year on the run up to the 2 major contests each year i compete in. It has to be as knot free as possible,although if in length i can cut the knots to suit. Size wise anything from 12 to 16inch diameter is perfect for both sawing and chopping practice. If anyone has any leads or can help i am happy to pay good money for the right wood.I can self collect in 3ton loads or my yard has access for timber trailer and tractor. Either email me on [email protected] pop us a message on here if you can help. Cheers folks Ben

    spalted holly

    Thanks guys will grab some pics for you soon, got some little stool legs out of it and some live edged boards. Despite my best efforts one of the boards has twisted and warped a touch and bit of slight crack.
  9. Hello guys ive got some rather nice holly boards, none quarter sawn sadly...is there anyway I can stop them moving so bad or warping as I am well aware it is a bit of a mare for moving a lot whilst drying.Dont see an awful lot of the stuff so id hate for it to ruin.Many thanks folks.
  10. Burns well,best burner out the willow family thats for sure.Coppices okey, however growth is fairly slow in comparison to most willow so dont expect a 5 year rotation like the willow hybrid varieties.Watch for deer as they will devour the re growth.
  11. Cumbria for forestry...jobs round here are rare as hens teeth lol.
  12. Softwood,or hardwood needed.Happy to take coppice material big bits twisty bits or anything in between.Anybody got a couple of wagon loads kicking about thanks in advance.
