Over 100 days! Think it's due I don't see why I have to put myself out with a long drive to middle of nowhere to confront someone who thinks they can steal from me. The mrs makes the small claims rout sound very straight forward and if it gets that far they are going to be paying interest and the cost of the court plus the invoice. Can't remember all details as the letter before action with it all explained is winging it's way to them now. Will keep this thread updated as it unravels.

Like that

Pretty much what my accountant thinks but they are trying this line at the moment but apparently it's going to be tested in the courts in February. No questions over items bought post Vat registration just on stuff bought prior to it.
-
Thanks Billy. Not sure what kind of proof they are going to want but if comes to it would you be able to send me some pictures including the plate where date of manufacture is?

Bliming incredible mpg figures Never got more than 30 out of our D max and it averages nearer 25mpg

Got a snag with HMRC having just gone Vat registered. I was of the understanding you can claim back Vat on large items backdated 4 years but they are trying to reduce the claim by saying all the machinery bought in the backdated period has lost a good proportion of its working life and that 60 months is the lifespan of the kit. I need to make the case that the machinery has much longer lifespan but this might be hard to proove. Anyway back to the point I am looking for old Farmi processors still in working order. Will contact Riko next week but thought it worth an ask on here first. Thanks Beau

I would go for £200-£250 but it is hard to gauge the exact amount from a few pics. That would be well above the usual delivered in rates of £50-£60 per tonne but that's based on 18-28 tonne loads. Got to cost more per tonne to deliver small loads. Sure someone more experienced will post up some numbers.
-
Looks like a couple of tonne. £400 for that is nuts. Infact that would make around 4 cube which would only cost £400 cut split and dried!

Burns fine and dries quickly. Not very heavy so burns fast more like softwood.
-
Processor scoffs it hence the 20 litre can. Might look into 2x10L ones but can't see how it's much safer.
-
Yikes! that would have me stressed. Hope you get payment in full.
-
Think that's what the mrs has planed. Letter before action is ready to go. Just hoped he might see sense and cough up before this rigmarole.
-
Never knew that. Local Texaco happily lets me fill up a 20 litre container.
-
No stress. It's only a day's work and the mrs can't wait to get this sorted through legal means. Just a shame that a chap I have worked for several times whom I thought was OK decides he doesn't need to bother paying me. I count my blessing as this is a first and for a small sum. Have read of some horrors in these pages over the years.

It's not exactly next door and frankly I don't like the idea of a confrontation think Ian is probably right.
-
Never had this problem before so count myself lucky but got my first non payer. Sent several reminders by email, post and phone messages. Not had any form of reply to anything but know they are still about due to facebook posts. Would like to think there is some innocent reason as we have have always got on but it don't look good. Any wise words before I unleash my legally trained mrs on them?

He don't seem to mind

Just heard a Blackbird singing like it's spring! Certainly warm down in the SW this morning.

So will dropping bombs on IS in Syria reduce international terrorism in the long run? Personally I can just see it making more angry young men who will want revenge on the west. Hope it does work but be interested in others views on this.
-
Was wondering how long it had been but 7 weeks is worse than I thought. Peeing it down now and the fields are completely waterlogged. No end in sight according to the Met Office.
-
Sorry just realised the one in the link is not for road use
-
No idea what they cost but was very impressed with a demo of this at the APF Mobile Log Splitters | Non-Road Use Do you need 22 tonne? Generally the more powerful the slower they run. Our 17 tonne machine stops for almost nothing and lots of folk swear by the 13 tonne Thor.

is an industrial grinder a bit too big???
Woodworks replied to se7enthdevil's topic in Woodcraft Forum
How about one of those Viceroy sharpeners? Probably only available in 3 phase but seems one of the only ways to grind quick without overheating. -
biggarlogs. If your logs fit the sub 20% criteria you need to update your site. "Our seasoned logs generally contain between 25 - 35% moisture and sometimes even less, they have been cut during the winter and allowed to gently air dry for several months ready for successful burning in the winter. " Sounds like the other link can't air dry logs properly either. No need for a special log store with well dried logs IMO. "Seasoned Kiln-Dried Hardwood Logs. Although we prefer natural air drying of logs we cannot deny the convenience of kiln-dried logs which can be stored inside the house or in a garage or dry shed without the need for a special log store outside. Especially so in the winter months when it is impossible for us to keep our naturally dried hardwoods from re-absorbing dampness from the air often resulting in mould growth if not stored in a suitable log store."

Warm and humid but not raining First morning dog walk without needing a raincoat for weeks.
