just picked up a 460 for £160 on Saturday:laugh1:

rotators are about £1200. take it to your local hydraulic engineer and they should point you in the right direction. always an idea to keep an eye out for used ones at auctions etc.
-
you may have to cut the tension out of the larch log first otherwise the springy side of the log will close on your bar/blade
-
have around 500 ish larch shingles left over form various builds and a handful of some oak ones you could have them but they are in three different sizes and thicknesses

hero?

hmmm? so how to save a fiver. at a push it could be done without haulage and the lowest grade of usable timber but it would be absolutely pointless as i could get better money roadside and letting someone else transport/process at greater expense. there will be no such thing as free timber when the bio guys snap it up when the demand grows
-
well not quite at a loss but worked out at £40m3 with artic delivery to 150 miles cutting out the middle mans premiums would pay the lads and maintain the equipment. thats it. so at £35m3 its unlikely to be of any quaility or quantity. that or find a new job:laugh1:

the problem with running large 3 phase motors is you need tremendous kva to start them. A 25kva gen will start a 7hp motor. a 5 inch stenner along the road with a 37hp motor has a 110kva 180hp gardener generator to work it (its on the side of a hill)

:lol:

maybe good for someone? Saw bench | eBay sorry if its already posted:biggrin:

the cheapest i have found is £52 -£55 loose cube, some folk do builders bags that are more expensive. cord delivered is around £38 m3 but if you buy wind blow/pulp at £17- £22 and extract it, haul it yourself then process all for £38 m3, i think it would pay wages question is would anyone buy an 80m3 artic of processed semi seasoned soft wood for £40m3 delivered?
-
around here softwood retails around £55m3 loose, i was thinking around £38 -£40 m3 + haulage but would there be enough left for the retailer?
-
hi everyone, wondering what a fair price would be for wholesale cut and split softwood?
-
8 till 7-8
-
have just googled the make Jackson Cochrane that finished in 1940 so the planer is over 84 years old
-
its on a large skid frame, just had a service so all the guarding to fit. it has four feed rollers so the greenest of wood never jams. the main roller is mounted on a pivot allowing up to 20mm cut in each pass
-
thats a kraz with full 6x6 drive where i think the ural has 6x5?
-
i want i want i want i want i want i want
-
i got a 24 inch x 8 inch planer thicknesser, pto driven for massive beams and site work but there isnt any wood where i am so its a fail!

Hiab to log crane conversion
Graham w replied to Timbermcpherson's topic in Forestry and Woodland management
our county has worn through two atlas 3008 cranes. the third is ready in the yard. this is a hardwood setup for working in large timber. when you get a big enough log the crane has enough grunt to lift the front of the tractor there is now too many cracks above the cab:001_rolleyes:
