  1. Was thinking that after I've filled up my log stores I could sell a couple of bags of unseasoned logs by the roadside? Anyone got any advise or have any thoughts on prices for this size of bag?
  2. These are my babies, built them from old pallets and felted the roofs!
  3. Sorry for sounding soo thick but what are those things called you used to pick the logs up to put them on the saw horse in the vid. I am having a blank moment!!! lol
  4. Mine was and still is an Aldi Gardenline thingymybob!! Am ashamed but will be upgrading soon, now that I know how to use one and am using it more and more!!!
  5. I would have done mate but I don't have the means to take it home!
  6. I'd buy a fiskars x27 but I refuse to pay almost double what our american cousins pay for it!!!!
  7. Where did you get yours from Ryan, was it from Amazon.com before they changed their minds and decided not to ship overseas?!!!
  8. Also forgot to mention, have got chain oil, fuel mix etc, just need to choose the right saw!!!
  9. Thanks all for the comments sofar. Budget I'm looking at is around £250 mark. I've got some PPE already as in Hat with faceguard and gloves. On the lookout for cheap steel toes and will invest in some trousers soon.
  10. Hi All, Looking for a new chainsaw and what to get some expert opinions. Here's the situation: I have a wood burning stove and use it reguarly (the misses likes to keep warm!), we burn all year round. I get a supply of uncut wood from a couple of local sources and I currently use an Aldi 46CC Petrol chainsaw with 18" bar to chop them up ready for mauling, this is something I'll be doing all year round to keep stocks up as need to let it season. I also have started felling some small trees for a couple of friends. Wood I'm cutting is a mixture of hardwood and software. Am looking for something with a bit more meat to it, an 18" bar is good but also would like to have something interchangable so have the option to use a smaller bar, if that makes sense! Any thoughts welcome. Cheers
  11. Thanks ppl for the info!
  12. Hi all, Noob question. Can you mix and match chainsaw bars and chains. I.e. can you use different size bars with chains on the same motor? Cheers, Adam
  13. Hmmm, I can't order the Fiskars X27 from Amazon US however I can order the Fiskars X25!!! Arghhh. Wots the difference between the two apart from the linger handle???
  14. How big are those nets and what you sell them for?
  15. I tried a couple of fibreglass mauls but then ended up breaking around the head. The best thing I have found is a hickory shaft splitting maul. This is the one I got: [ame=http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0001IWS6U/ref=oh_o05_s00_i00_details]Faithfull Hickory Shaft Log Split Maul 8Lb: Amazon.co.uk: DIY & Tools[/ame] Hasn't let me down yet!
