Hello, i refer to the above post, did you get someone to carry out your woodland thinning?

Cheers Dizzer that's a great help, we are a low impact timber extraction company and its a further service to which we can offer. as well as milling timber products for selling.

Dizzer Are you treating the pine in any way or selling it as untreated? do you sell it green or are you storing it for drying time first then selling it? i am getting the pine for the cost of felling it and taking the mill able lengths and very close to the yard. cheers

cracking looking mill and very easy to use, what do you put that out per day?

aye not seen that one, is it a good mill? what's the cutting speed compared to other mills of similar size?

Hi Johnpl315 aye it'l be tricky to compete with the bigger markets, what saw mill did you get?

Hi folks I am looking to go down the saw milling route to add another service to our business. i have a supply of large pine trees to start off with and i can order in 6.2m spruce logs, and will pick up hire days. Pretty much looking to mill useable timber eg 6x2, 4x4 posts rails, boards etc once timber is milled does it need to be dried for a period of time or can it be used with in week or so????? larch has very good resistant properties, could anyone advise on any particular timber to get my hands on???? cheers

Hi Eddy no there is a metal shim, it doesn't show you this on the parts diagrams you see on line. i do have pic but can seem to get it posted.

Hi Ray1 cheers for your help, will try and source a ms640 casing and looking in to the diagrams. you would think the part numbers should match. hmm what's the chances.

Hi folks I have a stihl 064 to get working, i found play in the crank shaft on the clutch side, further looking in to it i found a metal shim between the magnesium casing and the bearing, this is loose and i assume this is supposed to be from in to the magnesium casing in the manufacturing process?? this i believe where the play in coming from, bearing seem fine and smooth. long story short, looking for a another casing for my 064 or does anyone no that i can use a 066 casing as they are the same era and look very similar in the diagrams? any help or thoughts would be good cheers TreeAb

Hi all I keep getting asked "what tonnage of logs do you need for one ton of woodchip for biomass boilers?" yeah I understand pretty much depend on the size of the logs chipped etc but is there any one out there who chips for biomass who can give me a rough guide on the tonnage needed per ton of wood chip. cheers

Cheers folks, its such a small volume im sure its no high on the priority list

Ahhh sorry central belt Scotland.

Hi folks, I am looking for softwood timber buyers in the central belt? I've been to look at small coupe of standing timber and the owner want to reclaim some cash on the job. I understand size and volume etc all depend on what he will get back, but at the minute just looking for buyers of interest. approx. 100-150tons cheers
