  1. Red oak. Is there a prize To be honest the picture of a split log does looks perfect for red oak but I no stuff all about bark and buds.
  2. The little plate by the handle says 2002 so guess I have had it a while. I am presuming to check the line and boots is going to need some stripping apart? Bare with me as I am not exactly experienced with this sort of issues down to me being a part timer and the saw being so blimmin good, well until now.
  3. Still a few regulars topping up but that's about it. Clearly other dealers are quiet because processing for them has really kicked off in the last couple of weeks
  4. It's been perfect from new but has suddenly developed a problem. Worked perfectly on Tuesday but now difficult to start in that it will get ticking over but if you touch the throttle it stalls. Having restarted it multiple times it warms up a bit and get up to half throttle but if any more stalls or goes back to tickover. It's still got a bit of the fuel from Tuesday in it so don't think his is the issue. Meticulously cleaned the air filter and have popped a new fuel filter on but no joy. What next? Thanks
  5. It would but my truck multi tasks and has a top box one day and greedy boards the next. A dirty great crane bolted to it would scupper this. Appreciate the ideas though. There could be simple solution out there just not found it yet.
  6. Yes I could but this may make unloading more tricky. Was going to try sliding the bag to the back of the truck and tip out. Don't think this would work with a pallet underneath.
  7. Yes a bit of a pain but not insurmountable if the will is there. Not sure it is though. I am not doing huge quantities like some of these fellows so not really a big deal to handball a few logs about.
  8. Ouch. Not sure I would be so keen on them at that price
  9. Don't even bother with this now Rowan. It was a bit of a fiddle and now I use a truck instead of a trailer so don't fancy a slip and beating seven bells out of the truck. Quite like the fact all the logs are sorted and any remaining processor waste can be discarded. It's undoubtedly my weakest link in the chain but not come up with any sensible priced solutions. Started mesh bags for the short logs for next year but have already run into problems as our baby tractor can't lift them high enough to get them into the truck bed. Fortunate that we sell a lot of larger logs 12"-16" so handling is not that big an issue at that size.
  10. That all looks pretty slick Barry.
  11. £20 each down here. 3 times the price of bags but should last at least 3 times as long.
  12. Woodworks

    Moto GP

    Proper racing that. Rossi wins. Hope to say that a few more times this season. Just love his enthusiasm for a racing but Marquez did pretty well considering his start.
  13. Think you have a typo there mate. Don't think anyone would give away 0.95m3
  14. Another to add to list https://www.facebook.com/pages/Lizs-logs/655163937921072?ref=aymt_homepage_panel Thanks
  15. I measured the internal volume of the crate and made it 1.13m3 the plastic tanks hold 1000 litres but have room to spare.
  16. Jon you sound like you like your speed but want a pickup. How about these offerings Mercedes-Benz to launch a pickup truck. Is BMW next? How many BIG BUTTS could you get in that BMW
  17. A big thankyou to all who "liked" our page Its given it a good kick start. Beau
  18. Now you say that I have no idea if it was a grain trailer or silage trailer I filled. Sorry I realise that ain't much help R5log
  19. Done it with our little Farmi. Think they moved one panel to give it a bit more throw.
  20. Lidl ones. Mine have been great. Use them all the time with no problems. Not the best ear defenders for attenuation but not the worst either and the radio quality is pretty good. £25 when they I have them.
  21. It's not really Liz's it all mine, mine I say.
  22. Thanks Mike
  23. I don't remotely trust chemical companies. A good friend ran a firm that would independently test chemicals before release onto the market. He did one study that showed that a particular product was very harmful to beneficial insects. He wrote his report and sent it off to them. They came back and basically said rewrite it changing the facts or we will never give you work again! This was the final straw for him so gave up working in the industry. Got loads more horror stories from him on how they operate and it ain't pretty.
  24. Rain just started here. Why O why did I spend yesterday sorting website and facebook when it was lovely and now cutting the hedges in the rain.
  25. :lol: I don't fall out with people Barry but good job I did not pop in just the same. Hmm strange. You appear as Barry on my page but if I look on yours you like Liz's logs https://www.facebook.com/pages/Lizs-logs/655163937921072?ref=aymt_homepage_panel
