  1. If you are only on one cylinder i think something more drastic has happened than the head gasket. White smoke is probably going to mean oil is getting in the bore... Your going to have to strip it down i recon, OHV heads come off easily, try to note which rod goes in where. I put them in card board.
  2. Burning combinations of Eucalyptus, Ash, Macrocarpa, Larch, Pine, Fir, Sycamore, Beech and Nappies...

    prices.

    Couldnt agree more, there is nothing wrong with having low overheads and a small operation. Only have an issue with the axe as the splitting tool but my back is not the best... I am also buying in most of my timber but the price i am paying still makes the business viable. I am able to sell nearly seasoned (25-30%) Macrocarpa at £55 m3 inc free Local Delivery ie within 10miles and make £35 per m3 sold which takes me 1.5 hours to prepare and deliver. I am doing this for the lifestyle change so i am happy with £35 for 1 and half hours work. Sure as hell beats running a recruitment company! Unfortunately i only have 10m3 left to sell for this year, its very tempting to honour my current orders this week and stick the price up to £75 or £80 and see what i can sell! .
