    How long is a piece of string and I’m sure there will be people who disagree with me but down here (south west) average would be £100 a cube I’m on £120 for 1.3 cube.

    Ahh I see thanks for that! I new I had heard of a conversion but wasn’t sure it would be the right thing to do or not.

    Anyone running a farmi processor with the harvester bar and chain? Any better/worse? Worth the extra money?

    Just wondering if anyone does or has processed all there stock a year in advance then store in a shed just in a big loose pile? This is what I'm thinking of doing as I have a large barn which I use for firewood that's dry and properly vented but am worried the logs in the middle will go mouldy. The wood going in would have been felled 12 months and be a mix of ash, beech and silver birch. I currently only do about 100 tones a year so it would all fit in the shed if pushed up.

    Speak to Jim at Riko about a farmi I can't speak highly enough of mine, I'm on my second machine from them now as traded up from the 30 to the 36. The infeed seems so uncluttered compared to other makes which makes it so much easier to get twisty and bent timber in. Jim is on here so hopefully he will see your post. Hope this helps.

    After at least 2 artic loads of hardwood maybe more depending on price and quality and 1 load of processor sized soft wood. All delivered to gloucester area. Cheers

    If it's all straight and easy stuff if you worked on roughly a tone an hour that's what we usually average. I'm stacked out at the moment but I have a mate from nympsfield who would probably be able to get there before I could if you want his number I can pm it to you.

    Where abouts in glos are you? Do you want to hire with operator or with out?
  17. Hedger
    As beechwood says the best thing I ever bought was a grab and rotator to go on my 5tonne 360, load 10foot cords of 16" diameter straight onto the processor and anything bigger onto horizontal splitter then pick the billets up and stack in the shed ready for processing on a rainy day. If you have 25k to spend then you could buy a decent second hand 360 for £7000-£8000 then kit it up with a grab and rotator for another £1000.
  18. Hedger
    No problem glad your sorted

    Riko uk are in Hampshire not sure how close to you though. I have bought both my processors off them and found them really helpful, they take old machines back so might be worth seeing if they hire any out. Google alpine tractors or Riko uk and they should come up. Hope this is some help.

    Hi there, I've got an ifor Williams tipper the smaller one with a partition in the middle with mesh sides so I can get 1m cube in both bits. Which means you can do 2 1m cube loads or 1 2m cube load. Hope that helps.
  23. Hedger
    Can highly recommend Riko UK which you have mentioned. Have had my last two farmi processors through them and found them very helpful. Processors are really good machines for the money. Hope this is of some use.
