    Got to listen to those gut feelings

    If your in firewood for the long haul it's got to be a 360 bigger the better it's on the list for this year forklift are a waste of time for sorting out cord you need to be selective. Asking a driver to sort cord is a :laugh if you want it graded you buy it graded not ask the driver to do it. Once you buy graded you won't go back.

    A good processor is easier and simpler still need to billet to get rid of oversize though
  6. Mortimer Firewood
    A & C but if you want c it's a bag of each
  7. Mortimer Firewood
    We're doing billet bundles for next year only soft though

    Breath taking. Make our view from the uk look rather tame. Did you use a long range lens to make it look so clear.

    Like garden kit said you want a grillo you can pick them up for reasonable money , Etesia do something similar
  10. Mortimer Firewood
    Yep but that big mouth is telling all the others

    Stuffing the bags has to be the worst part of the whole process unless your set up for it

    That's not quite where I am at yet but come the 1st of October I will be. If I do go down the kiln dryed route I'll be stacking in crates for ease oo kilning and ease of storage plus it looks nice and neat when delivered.
  13. Mortimer Firewood
    I don't know what volume people have built there kiln dryed sales up to but are you not worried where the woods going to corm from to supply the boilers? It's all right burning waste wood most of the guys I know want to put fairly hefty lumps on so it's not full of air caps

    I'm still not sold on the idea if I have not made a decision by the end of the month it all be made for me as it will not be viable Government have subsidised industry before and then ripped the contract up less than half way through the term.
  16. Mortimer Firewood
    It's a cool machine but in my yard would be shagged with in a year.
  17. Mortimer Firewood
    This is the problem with it been subsidised. People treat the subsidy as profit when it goes away there left with profit at an all time low. Plus it will lead to a price war and were the only ones that will loos. I didn't think you sold firewood to the GP Dave?
  18. Mortimer Firewood
    Yes you do it's a no brainier
  19. Mortimer Firewood
    Most people I know with kilns are running the kiln dried along side there seasoned lines. Nothing in life is garenteed even less so when the government are involved once they start hitting targets for the 2020 agreement they won't care about biomass Make the most you can while you can. Another cutter saying 5 years then problems are going to start I'm seeing it all ready. Lads paying £65 a tonne for oak then bussing it in from 100 miles away at 16 a tonne because there getting subsided on it . Firewood will be dead in 10 years make money while you can

    Last sentence said it all
  21. Mortimer Firewood
    Did that come off G edwards
  22. Mortimer Firewood
    A year:lol::lol: £120 bet your busy going rate round here is £160

    By next winter that will be some good firewood at the moment the beech seams to be drying quicker than Ash.

    We have had the head master of local school buy firewood off us since we started he retired last year and wanted a discount on his firewood I told him the price was the price he said I can buy imported kiln dryed for £150 for 2 Cube. He is back with us now he had a crate of ash which if you split the logs in half would be kindling which burnt in minutes.
  25. Mortimer Firewood
    Beech less than 9 months old left in the round cut left for a few weeks it's ready to go. Ours all came from a harvester that ripped a lot of the bark off so that've makes the difference.
