  1. Yes i have one, i shall dig it out and send it to you so you can photo copy it and return the original, if no one comes up with anything better. pm me with your details.
  2. Hi Nature, if you get this message can you email me back at [email protected] i might have something of interest for you!

  3. Better to loose it than rush in and make mistakes, their is more than one wood for sale.
  4. As the lady was having a liner fitted to her new wood burner then next door was going to have one fitted as well as his woodburner just feeds into the chimney.
  5. No slate roof. Long time ago it was 1 house now 2 small cottages.
  6. i use a top handle for hedge laying ,saw doing the cut other hand steadying the pleacher as it falls to stop it breaking at the cut and directing it to where it needs to go. Some snedding so it will lay flat. Can't be that precise with a 2 handed saw. Is this wrong ?
  7. To all you stove fitters out their. a customer of mine wants to fit a woodburner to a fire place in her old cottage but the stove company say that because next door shares the same chimney they cannot as hetas will not allow 2 liners to share the same chimney. I spoke with hetas, they could not give a reason for this rule, except to say as the liner can get up to 700 degrees it could burn thro and burn thro next doors liner, i did point out that the melting point of aluminium was 3000 degrees. can any one tell me the reason for this.

  11. Wow i can only dream of these figures, been a 1 man band furniture maker / carpenter and joiner for 25 years just done my accounts for 2011-2012 turnover just under £22,000 running costs and materials just under £10,000 so a miserable profit of £12k. own my house, partner doesn't work 2 kids,£18 per hour 5 days a week no holidays, top it up with savings, stressed up to my eye balls. Perhaps i should get a proper job as the other half keeps suggesting.

  13. Used mine for the last 15 years , run it with an old ferguson 65, never sharpend the wedge or tip and it splits anything i show it with ease, do tons each year. Never used a vertical splitter as the Hydraulics are to slow. Never squashed a finger yet as i never hold the logs around the sides but just push onto the cone until it bites then leave it to do the rest.
