Hi all.
I put an Igland 4501 winch on arbtrader for £1700 and got no interest. What do you guys think is a fair price for it?

Are you changing to a different processing and storage system for 2020?
Happy New Year.
No, we are selling up completely. I have accepted a job that moves me to Bristol so I can no longer carry on the business.
So anyone if anyone is looking for a hand processing in and around Bristol, let me know.

The thumb is a kelfri thumb, same as the one in the link below. It’s only been used once so is in good condition. I will get pictures of it in the week.

Hope you've all had a good Christmas and a merry New Year!
We are selling up a lot of our firewood processing equipment over the next couple of months and I am just seeing if there is any interest in the wire crate storage we have.
We have approximately 150 crates shown the the below picture. They are made of 2 rings of stock fencing stacked on top of each other. All crates vary in condition from old, used fencing to new fencing.
Other equipment we will be selling:
Posch 280 processor
Riko A11 log splitter
Cone Splitter (will find out want make it is)
Igland 4501
Hydraulic thumb for pallet forks

Sell it a bit cheaper to anyone that uses wood on a boiler. Bigger logs, less work, and you get your yard space back.

Could you do it the other way around? Put the dried logs in the barn loose around mid summer and store all the seasoning wood outside.

Had plenty of snow over the last 2 days. These are some of the drifts we had.

Yes we felt it, thought a heavy truck was speeding down the road.

Out of all we sell, just under 50% of the wood we sell is softwood. Our 50/50 mixed bag is the most popular.
-
Needing more dry softwood either processed or roundwood if there is any about Let me know.
-
We have been using a 11 ton Riko A11 for the last couple of years and there is only a few pieces of wood it wont split.

Hows the log sales going everyone?
I have been fully booked up for the last month, averaging 10 bags a week, and it doesn't seem to be letting up into December either. Loving the cool and dry weather

Good find, I was looking for something similar last night but failed. Cheers!

Can be easily mistaken for oak, did it myself once.
spits furiously, wouldn’t recommend it for an open fire.
on the plus side burns down to nothing leaving very little ash
As far as I am aware, not a lot of SC is grown locally to us, so this took me a bit by surprise. We have a couple more lorries to come in to water it down now.
I may mill up some of it for a log store I need to build, and some sheds that are going up on the yard considering its good rot resistant timber.

Well from the mixed reviews I have read, its looks like I am going to have to dilute the SC with other wood.
I have had a few blocks sat next to the fire for 3 hours now and they still weigh a far bit. They don't want to dry out at all.

You may have a good point. The reason I thought it was oak was because there was lots of tannin visible when splitting the wood, but I have now learnt there's tannin in most woods but their levels vary across species. You learn something new everyday.
Ive brought back some wood to burn on the fire, if there is a fireworks display then I will take that it is sweet chestnut.

Pictures would have helped.

I've looked at lots of the Youtube videos of smaller diggers and some look great while some seem slow on nice straight grained wood.
I have spotted this on ebay though, recommended for a 1.5t-10t machine. If I get 2 brackets for the splitter, one for both machines, if the smaller machine is not up to the job I can then swap between machines.
