  1. Just wondered as you were running it off a non commercial unit.
  2. Must be our herefordsire cider apples they are quite dry:lol: To be honest all the apple we get comes from old orchard where most of the trees are dead or on there last legs so thats helps with the mc
  3. you got planning on your setup there huck?????????
  4. Yes of course it does you have a kiln I'd expect it to like I said anything worthy to contribute. No I didn't think so
  5. Yep the thread was about seasoning times so that's the idea. Anything worthy to contribute?
  6. Never found any difference in summer winter felled. Do notice a lot of diffrance when it's been harvester cut and lots of barked stripped off. To be honest all the timber apart from two loads has been sat roadside for a year by the time October comes it all of been down 2 so we're leaving it in lengths. Will cut split 6 weeks before selling.
  7. Oak chestnut holly 12 months Apple Hawthorne 9 months Ash birch hazel beech larch cherry 6 months Sycamore scots pine 4 months
  8. You have been lucky then some idiot fired a semi auto 12 bore out the window of a vehicle while i was in the passenger seat and perforated my ear drum had to be 10 inchs away.
  9. They will get back to you ASAP if not go in the firewood forum and you can join up there me thinks
  10. My sarcasm must of not shone through
  11. The table on the Thor is exactly right. I've used a krpan and it's a great splitter just feels a little awkward. Plus it's French isn't it
  12. Why would you have mud on a landscaping job Trust me if your putting enough over the counters at the builders merchants your either going to make money or every now and then get free materials. I can guarantee I'm going to get the materials 27% cheaper than the client.
  13. That's two nices sticks, had 5 artic loads last year that the mill rejected same as that felt like a crime cutting it in to rings.
  14. A friend made the website for me on the understanding I'd then return the favour and help somebody elsa. It's on pay per click It's our only form of advertising now and I think £200 a month to get that volume of calls is quite good. All though it's taken me a while to get my head round pricing with jobs from the site as before I took some time out all our work was word of mouth now people will get multiple quotes. It's not a bad thing as we just work harder and think outside the box more.
  15. I will pm you and give you the advice I was given it works for us.
  16. Why don't you put a proper ad up rather than putting random posts on threads that have nothing to do with supplying firewood
  17. Seo IMO is a con. There's a simple way to climb google in very little time if the guy designing your site is telling you seo is the way to go be wary. All the guys that gave me good advice told me to avoid it. Our site gets 2 calls a day and it costs less than £50 a week it was no2 on google 3 days after going live and has remained between 1st and 3rd spotit's a no brainier
  18. There is that. Mr Rooney would be right at home
  19. I really like the look of that shame somebody over here hasn't designed similar
  20. Must admit it was ruff we never ate there and drunk bottles as the glasses never got washed but we liked it as a lot of the contractors from the cement factory where we were working were there and we could all get on the lash together. Plus the bar never really shut.
  21. Highly valuable walnut tree clip springs to mind
  22. No just bum bags
  23. Leave them out for 12 months and then find a merchant with a biomass unit
  24. Only problem I had was on asking for 25 of each bag they do to sample them they got the order wrong and we're not that bothered. Never had issues with supply and bakers could not touch them on price plus the size of there cube bags makes it very attractive
