    Start booking you holiday!

    Sounds like there in the business of destroying the competition. Maybe you should undetprice a few jobs and subtly post there Flyer a few days later.

    But how much postage ontop. This worries me as I was considering a Lucas. Surely all spares should be easily available?

    It's great firewood, but better for milling.

    Nice work mate, you should of used the flash on all the shots though:D lol.

    Sandspider, large one is 6ft long. Solid oak with no sapwood. Would make you one for £250. Could deliver for 50ish whenever(courier price would need confirming, or my sis lives in your area so if you could wait for my next trip down I would deliver for £20, but someone would need to be there to help me unload.

    Make sure its not capped off and run it dry.

    Thickness in general will only affect the price pro rata. 2" worth twice as much a 1". But takes twice as long to dry so you will have to store for longer before reaching a good price. Big j will be able to give you the best idea of values of different woods but unless you take the time and expense to set up a business like big j, you will struggle to easily sell timber for the same value as him.

    I'm sure that's what I meant to say Clive.

    There is money in a good root ball, IF you can find a buyer. There's also money in planks, if you season them well, have a nice colour and IF you can find a buyer. What part of the country you in Jesse? I been looking for a couple of highly valuable walnut butts to mill for a project I have in mind.
  11. muttley9050
    But its a highly valuable black walnut tree?
  12. muttley9050
    Surely 5'17" is 6'2"?
  13. muttley9050
    Probably cheaper to get one made than import from USA.
  14. muttley9050
    Very philosophical pat!
  15. muttley9050
    What work do you do bowlander?
  16. muttley9050
    A repost I know, but it creases me up just thinking about it!
  17. muttley9050
    Regardless of all the sarcasm etc, you may be unhappy with the quantity of logs you got. The point is if the bag was full, then you got a reasonable deal and are unlikely to do much better. Take into account the value of the unsplit timber, cost of splitting, cost of filling bag, cost of loading van, cost of delivering logs, cost of driving home again. It all adds up. I don't know what you do for a living but I know a lot of folk who would earn that £50 before your seller would of had time to get the axe out and split the first log. You asked your seller how big his bags were and he told you they were about 0.7m3 not that they would hold this much in stacked logs.

    Ditto. Welcome and look forward to your pics/ input. James

    I'm no expert, but surely with the lr pulling on the dodge the frontwheels will be slightly lifting leaVing the rear doing most of the work anyway?
  20. muttley9050
    Have to disagree, they might try to make it happen, but they wont get them all and it will start all over again. They may target woodlands and the like but some will survive in gardens etc and repopulate!

    The two book matched boards above are oak.
  22. muttley9050
    Outside in wind but not sun, covering with tin is good. Sweet chesnut is awesome for garden furniture.
  23. muttley9050
    So does the likes of a ford ranger/hilux etc count?

    Imo surgery is the way forward. Never had shoulder issues but had ops on both knees. I've always come out far better than I've gone in. If the op your thinking of is keyhole then recovery will be very quick with little physio needed. If not keyhole you have to be far more commitee to your recovery. It's down to you to decide but IME physios are under qualified and have always made my problems worse pre surgery. Post surgery there ok. Have you had full mri scan on the shoulder?

    We have a load if walnut trees. They fruit well and we probably shoot around 20 squirrels per year.
