    No they have habitat piles all over the place Starting with about a gazillion ton of chestnut. It's economics Jon getting the mill grade stuff out ASAP They went through 3 years ago took all the big oak out and sold it to Vastons then put a new licence in to fell everything but the big stuff in Put it simply they have taken the lot FC is a joke

    Really there cutting 76 acres behind me and what they have left as waste is truly awful tops 6 inch down just left lots of it everywhere
  4. Mortimer Firewood
    What are they going to be used for?
  5. Mortimer Firewood
    They move up and down the bed to even weight out

    Ash bark goes from brown to off grey as it matures gots loads of ash in the yard with a variety of characteristics
  7. Mortimer Firewood
    Deffo ash if your felling ones on the side of a field with a lean put a ratchet strap on them 18 inchs above the gob. Had a big un do it split out as the bar had not gone through. Limes like splitting out aswell.

    Like all the other cold snaps that were predicted for this winter it all just probably turn to just below average temp.
  9. Mortimer Firewood
    Yep same here.
  10. Mortimer Firewood
    Get some mesh on the trailer and a gate in the middle . Tip first load then lower open gate to let the load spread out or it's a pig to tow. I must get round to getting a crane sorted
  11. Mortimer Firewood
    I would guess single can with raised sides

    It's going to be - 15 and 2 ft of snow the old bloke on the hill can tell by a tingle in his left nostril and the squirrels are walking round in thermals

    I can get 6 cube loose 2 compartments with 3 in each and then one in the truck or a loose cube in each compartment with a bag on top
  14. Mortimer Firewood
    That's the beauty of bags tip them 1 load in front if trailer 1 in back 1 bag in top then if I'm really pushed 1 in the back of truck
  15. Mortimer Firewood
    Yep sounds just like herefordshire with a little bit of imagination most vehicles can be made to carry multiple loads. Cant see how you can make it pay trundling round with 1 order on. Delivery days I'm leaving the yard at 730 loaded with 4 /5 cube usually back by 9 do a couple local then in the yard working. How many loads can you guys get out in a day?
  16. Mortimer Firewood
    It's not a mindless comment what's the use of having a delivery vehicle that can only do one load. It's like sending the country postman on a skate board. Can't be processing if your sat in a vehicle.

    Use to be 1" miles now it's 25 we just wait til there is a few in the same area. One of our customers use to save it from Newport which is over an hour &15 away.
  18. Mortimer Firewood
    Which bags were you using as we have tried everything heras potato boxes the lot vented bags work well for us season well quick to load reasonably cheep. Can't see any other way of doing it when your doing bigger volumes .
  19. Mortimer Firewood
    Wasp I thought you was packing up the firewood game?
  20. Mortimer Firewood
    Slower than a slow thing this week . 9 cube just enough to pay for this weeks load
  21. Mortimer Firewood
    I'm sure Andy said they were 5 k
  22. Mortimer Firewood
    What make is it a pikee
  23. Mortimer Firewood
    How much was it they want 5 k for the tajfun one
  24. Mortimer Firewood
    The tajfun log loader is ok but really slows productivity down unless a second man is present. I'm getting the log deck for a trial to see how good it is. But then I would need a 360 to feed that where do you stop.
