There must be something in your area you can set fire to.

I was talking about a (big) biomass chipper. Crane fed.
-
Well done.
-
5th. Block him. I occasionally view a post to make sure my decision was right. It hasn’t been wrong yet.

The stuff in the photo would chip in about three minutes. The problem is what is the bloke and chipper going to do for the rest of the day. Twenty minutes to fill a lorry if the supply is there. Someone local with a tractor trailed Heiziohack rather than a lorry based monster MIGHT want it but it’s still not much. Won’t cost much to ask (do check whether anyone’s biomass setup is taxvictim funded and show them the door if it is) but I suspect you’re going to be doing it yourself. What are you doing with it at the moment?

Politicians should shut the fck up. Politics is statehood which is violence. Don't pay your TV licence. Ignore the court process. Fight the coppers who come to cage you. They'll eventually shoot you if you fight back hard enough. Politicians are fine with political violence as long as it isn't directed at them.

Gotcha. Question wasn’t loaded however you thought it was btw.
-
Would you use the BDB if it was CE marked?

No express terms for grease and oil so you’re falling back on terms implied by industrial notoriety. Burning engine oil is definitely their problem. Fuel would almost certainly be yours (receive it full, return it full or pay £x/litre). Grease I’m undecided. I’ve never been asked to grease a digger when hiring. You expect them to do that before it comes out to you. Probably their problem unless it’s some kind of machine you’re meant to grease throughout the day. Switch is on you and bear in mind it might be a £10 part but a man had to find the right one, order it, find the card details to pay for it etc etc etc. £90/hour workshop rate sounds reasonable. Plus you could have gashed up the next day’s hire for it by breaking it. Special delivery for the part maybe. Were CPA terms incorporated? Hiring’s miserable isn’t it. I nearly always look for a man and machine now.

Yes but his pile of scabs is going to be like a pack of crisps to an elephant.
-
Is the BDB still the one to beat?
-
Ever tried garden centres? Tipper trailer a week kind of thing. Or bag it for them if you can be bothered.
-
I quoted a mate for a job a while ago, chip stays if he wants it for his son's play area. Sycamore and ash. Was it playground safe? Oh fckoff. I’ll remind him of that when his son announces he’s marrying an electrician.
-
That makes sense. My main message was process it straight off the mill rather than look at long lengths for a while, trying to puzzle unrealised value out of them.
-
Straight into chipper and sell as garden/playground mulch? Barky so possibly better for that.
-
I was thinking self use or friends.
-
Off the saw and straight through a branchwood logger?
-
You could get a job for eggs, selling cars, or caravan holidays.

Horrible isn’t it. Nearly didn’t post it but if we (the royal we) are going to have big opinions on things, we should have to really confront the ugly side of them. We should stare it in the face, raw, and then decide whether we still think the same thing as much as we thought we thought it.

Just to ram the point home for anyone who hasn’t seen it. IMG_5911.MOV

The surrogate Gaul is referring to the Romans if wikipedia is to be believed.

It might have been one of those I found fifteen years ago on a golf range. Massive thing. Size of a small bird. Made a very particular noise. Had never seen anything like it before. I killed it without hesitation. New and different things shouldn't be tolerated.
-
I've been a massive Hitchhiker fan in the past. Wore out the tapes. Could recite it along.

Flushcut/chisel ground sidecutters. Looks unprofessional like that.
