    I was cutting fresh felled beech last week a 0.73m3 bag weighs in 498kg
  5. Logsnstuff
    I'm just telling my customers the top 2/3 of the bag are around 18% and the bottom is soaked with 4 months solid rain 24-30% mc, most of them are still happy only 2 complained so far and 1 of them was after money off before we even delivered.

    £7.00 here and £10 if you want weighed after you empty. for years we used to tell people who would phone up wanting a ton of wood delivered to get weigh tickets don't think any of them ever did but the majority now are starting to ask the volume of bags which is something.

    I cover that area also £94 a bag .73m

    I have the knitted ones and they hold their shape better than the mosquito haven't used them long enough though to judge on their drying.
  9. Logsnstuff
    I use Industrial & Mill Moisture Meter | Industrial Moisture Tester
  10. Logsnstuff
    I only know 6 or 7 people who have used them 1 liked them the rest didn't that was enough for me not to bother.
  11. Logsnstuff
    I thought they were about about £3,250 now

    I went small with the logs and the result was small customer base so I'm going back to chunky for next season and they can split them smaller as needed.

    7" 9" 18"

    <p>Thank you, the cubes were a good idea but the centres can be slow to dry I would recommend putting a row of pallets down the middle when half full to allow better air flow.</p>

    depends on species also atm I'm getting 2 90x90 from fresh felled beech but I would normally work on 3 bags
  16. Logsnstuff
    seems slow to me but you do save the cost of a processor.
  17. Logsnstuff
    or just buy your logs from me
  18. Logsnstuff
    380kg

    ship it in the round on barges plenty places shipping out pulp so no reason they cant bring timber into them. I prefer to process my own logs that way I know what timber is going in. We looked at shipping from France but couldn't get the numbers to work.
  20. Logsnstuff
    and they should be bringing firewood back on those barges.

    Sadly I did although I have paid £52 delivered for other stuff but only when i get really desperate. looking to try and get a decent summer clearing up windblow on the estate plenty of oaks been blown in the last year. I did a test weigh with bakers mesh bags 90x90 on the beech came in at 483kg which was higher than I was hoping for.

    I've been using the posch 3200 for the last 5 years it's rated 12" cut but you can squeeze a little bigger through, for timber above that I have the 2.5m horizontal and a couple of 19t verticals works fine for what I do 4-500 tons a year, Pallax is what everyone else around here uses as Jim watt is only 15 miles down the road and the pallax with 17" cut is cheaper than my 3200 I just didn't think it was as well built although it certainly can cut alot gatehouse nursery say they are doing 1500 tons a year with theirs. I moved mine around the yard quite alot because I was filling log cubes to season in but now we just fill vented bags it is pretty much permanently positioned and the 4m log deck after working with that I wouldn't dream of buying a machine for hand feeding.
  23. Logsnstuff
    I was tempted with the pallax because it can take bigger timber but I don't like the splitting blade on them I prefer the sealed blade on the posch.
  24. Logsnstuff
    I've been doing £3.00 + vat and delivery and barely worth my time, I'll be going £3.50 £3.75 next season

    you might want to say where you are based or do you want haulage half way up the country.
