Aye from Rob. I'm too far north I reckon. Dave

Went to order a box of 12 but postage almost the same cost as the files. Kills it for me. Dave

Think I'll sell mine as semi loose. I hope my innovative advertising description will appeal to those that don't like their logs too loose but still prefer some looseness. Those who prefer things tighter will be glad for the 50% reduction in looseness I'm offering. Dave

Well I'm glad that's sorted! Well done folks all. Better get my order in sharpish. Dave

I keep getting pulled in my driver + 8 passengers renault trafic. It's registered as an mpv but 4 times I've been pulled for doing over 50 on single carriageway. Thankfully I was always below 63 and the officers then debated if I truly was commercial. Every time different set of reasons but always let off. When even the police don't know my limits it's difficult! I drive car speed limits generally. Dave

Always a confusing area. Read often of folk running splitters off a pto pump at tick over. I'm trying to get a clear picture because running my Ford 4000 at tick over fine but running it at 1800rpm+ for a day very expensive on fuel. Dave

Great site. With the video customers may question how well a big pile of logs actually seasons and may expect moisture meter in the middle of a fresh split not the end of unsplit. Dave

Name and shame.

Hmm this defies good business sense. There must be a reason. Dave

Where to find Norway Spruce for restoration project

Folk always happy to see wood back in work. Don't worry about it being a hassle! I supply wood to a local museum for their construction projects and they mill it imperial to continue the buildings history. It's a bit awkward to shift wood around but I'm proud it's seeing a museum keep its traditional building heritage alive. Dave -
I just wonder if pump at fault? Over heating & over pressure? Dave
-
This is making me think. Hoses should be easy to get right and pto pump getting warm? Will await outcome before deciding. Dave

Anyone tried one of their machines? Very reasonable prices. http://croftermachinery.co.uk/products/the-contractor-18 Dave

I planted my orchard 6 years ago and love it. I'm adding to it this winter. I use the orchard as part of my grazing rotation for my sheep and the ewes have a taste for apple leaves! I need to up my protection from wire cages to maybe a three way staked and boarded individual enclosure. Any other options I've missed? Thanks, Dave

It's summer here in Argyll! Been working in sun out of wind. Fab. Dave

Anyone got any experience of location fees and appearance fees? Dave
-
Heard about this happening near an airport. Rac/aa would just move cars a 100m then sorted. Dave
-
That's great Jim. I want it on tractor for stability and moving but prefer wee petrol over tractor ticking over. Will be in touch! Dave
-
I'm pretty sure I'm going Riko over Thor and think petrol motor rather than pto driven. However there's a problem. I would like to transport on the three point linkage and use there for stability. Soft ground abounds here and I'd rather split in situ and can imagine if not on linkage it will tip. But there's no vertical version of petrol motor with linkage, it'd have to be a horizontal. That's not the best. Maybe I should go pto and electric. Only reason not to use pto is to look after tractor and to avoid safety issues of pto. Any experience that can help me decide? Ta Dave

I was under the impression in order to qualify for rhi payments the powers are introducing the rule you must buy from registered supplier. No home production allowed but maybe you could become a registered supplier? ! Dave
-
Now I'm surprised folk think ok to charge self employed or otherwise for kit. My kit is my responsibility. If I give permission to some one else to use I do it accepting I am still responsible for any damage. Just me? Dave

Network rail in mid Argyll? No trains here. Will keep my eyes open. Dave Edit- see you're in Oban from profile.
