    Agreed different areas different requirements but it's like a lot of things thesa days people don't want to get there hands dirty and have very little time so having it in bags saves them both. Advertise the fact and I think you would get more sales in bags ... We did.

    Yes CW firewood the biggest supplier of firewood in the uk how could I not know there on my back doors step Mr b doesn't like us mentioning other firms on the forum.
  3. Mortimer Firewood
    The same as everyone's that sells kiln dried firewood

    Your main competitor delivers bags via a crane so why not get in on the game it's a no brainier

    Most people that buy logs up here don't want them tipped out on there drive and don't want to have to stack them. They want them dropped in a bag in the garidge

    How do you deliver a steal stillage to a client how would you charge a deposit on one hears your logs and I need 100 pound deposit on the stillage. I deliver softwood to a rHI client who wanted stillages he bought them

    If your on about stretch then you got allow for that in your price. There's one firm that's got the size and stretch under control use twice sell on for not much less than cost
  8. Mortimer Firewood
    Agreed bags are the way forward

    I f the cutters are sharp it will leave a better finish than most roller mowers Available hear for 17 plus the nasty

    Tidy job been thinking of buying a mini mill and knocking a few up to sell at the yard.

    The only thing I run on gas is the forklift in the barn like anything elsa I pay my money and take it never look at price with things like that as driving round is going to cost more than you save. I fill up with fuel in a local garidge it's not cheep but it's local and they have logs off me

    processor
  14. Mortimer Firewood
    You getting a processor then jon don't forget its not just the machine there is 100 k of cord your going to need to feed it 10 grands worth of bag/boxs log deck tele

    What is it you hate about it. If your harts not init there is little point in doing it unless employing others with a flair for it.

    The fastest is the pinosa followed by a mutitec imo never used either but seen both up close well been operated. Tajfun are bringing out a 500mm from what I've been told its going to blow the competition out the water
  17. Mortimer Firewood
    The taj has one runs at the end of a long day or when using the 12 way

    Yes i had thought of this on my last farmi it would be quite simple to rig up but I'm hearing a lot of people saying the same thing so think it will be a matter of time before they change it. If they don't then ill find another little processor Even by changing to vegy oil will not solve the heat problem as the hotter the machine gets the oil becomes super runny.
  19. Mortimer Firewood
    because i like a chainsaw i can keep sharp myself been there done it i can see the advantages. I would have another farm in a hart beat if they ran them on chain oil
  20. Mortimer Firewood
    An amozone would be ideal for that site I've seen them used to clear sites after partys they eat anything cans bottles the lot if it doesn't go up the screw it just breaks it down till it does
  21. Mortimer Firewood
    Does that also lubricate the chain with hydro?
  22. Mortimer Firewood
    Its a great machine but as you pointed out cris the hotter the machine gets the less efficient the oil becomes. Plus with the health imprecations its just not right. I want a small machine to run alongside the Tajfun filling the same bag with large and small cord appeals to me i reckon you could do a cube every 4 mins with both machines. Yes you do have to top it up reg
  23. Mortimer Firewood
    TY I've seen the grill and GF cutting field grass at a demo set up by someone without an interest in either machine trust the the GF unit is the one every manufacturer wants to emulate. If i was going to carry on id have one the grass cutting over here is changing its becoming more and more underpriced. We use to get £800 a month for a water board contract its now just been won by a rival for £425 Plus i would be worried sending out a 36 k mower with two student workers.

    At least there not trying to stealth tax you every which way they can like in good old GB

    Google it Gianni Ferrari are all collectors
