  1. I have hp a plenty, to assist, with a quarry adjacent. But just want to avoid double handling if possible. Thinking of using a bale spike with just four tines to load 8-10ft logs onto, use watched strap and cut into 50cm logs. Today I just used a basic log holder and cut in situ and filled bulk bags.
  2. We have approx 25 acres of first thinnings this year, mainly Ash and Sycamore. Due to poor soils yields are not high, but I would just like some advice on what's the best method to take timber and convert. Should I convert in situ, or cut to lengths of 8th and process later indoors? I don't have access to a processor or circular saw; just me and my chainsaw. I'm toying with building a small holder that I can fill with logs and cut with a larger saw? But it would be great to hear you guys experience and advice? Cheers
