    I had a supplier like that banana cord when he rings now the banana man cartoon is his ringtone

    There should be no long shards in there and be a lot more uniform than that what chipper produced that?

    I want the first 7 k out of a processor not the last 7k let someone elsa worry about it getting old. Plus Kilworth do some pretty good deals on trading in. Don't no many firewood merchants keeping processors longer than 3 years.

    With us if it fits in chipper it gets chipped if it's stopping there or not

    They are good but I've found the side walls to be a bit week but I'm constantly going over kerbs with them. I've done 10000 miles on them probably another 4 left but will change them early due as if you push the side wall it bulges in another place.

    Sitting on the sette drinking Red stripe having visitors round . Taking calls for logs they want delivering before Christmas

    Just send them a polite email explaining your cost and that you had given them a heavy discount for family and that's your price and your sticking to it. There trying it on working for family always turns out problematic.

    Why cover the sides just cover the top . The sun will help but airflow is the key to getting a nice dry log.

    There is well priced stuff out there you just got to hunt for it. Cord prices are coming down as there's a stockpile and there still cutting. In the last few days I've been offered cord cut 10 12 18 months ago you can see it's old from the state of it.

    If it's mixed together no more than £32 for soft 42/45 for beech £10 a ton to transport it

    I do concur the 420 is a yard machine. Been banging 20 inch rings through it today never ceases to make me smile and that takes a lot so it must be good ::

    No it's that good the timber comes to it:001_tt2:

    To be honest Ben you only really need it on the last couple of foot. The farmi is ideal on stuff up to 10 inch after that it lacks power for splitting on the 6 way. I do rate them prity quick. Tajfun is in a different league mind.

    7family's lives that will never be the same again really feel for the driver of the bin lorry. Days before Christmas sad sad sad

    I'm afraid you have to market the firewood more and more as you said oil price& mild weather has not helped. The woods not going out as quick as I expected it to but lorries are coming and we're delivering at a steady rate. Customers are getting more organised and order in advance so the diary a pretty full till mid Jan. Bit of snow & ice would certainly help things along.

    Have you got the 12 way knife for yours Ben? When you use the 8way on big stuff do you find yourself resplitting stuff
  21. Mortimer Firewood
    The only downside is a few splinters
  22. Mortimer Firewood
    If customers have not ordered by now there will be no calls till jan it's always slow around the 20th till the 3rd. The cold spell there predicting for Jan will get things moving nicely
  23. Mortimer Firewood
    How many acres was there????
  24. Mortimer Firewood
    If you need some one to take the firewood grade stuff I'll have it. Had beech delivers in to me in the summer that was the same as you described but the contractor could not sell it for anything other than firewood. Good luck with it ..
