  10. Becoming WoodSure+ Plus accreddited & BSL registered was the best thing I have done. Sales of Woodfuel (firewood, pellets, kindling, briquette) has increased by approx 30% yr on yr for the last 3 years. As I carry out woodland management, I don't need to purchase timber.
  11. I've got air springs on my Defender 130. When pumped up and with a load of firewood on the back, it rides level and does not look overloaded....

  17. Hi, We source all the timber for firewood from our woodland management operations. Have not had to buy timber in over 3 years. As a HETAS WoodSure accredited firewood producer and registered BSL producer it means we can guarantee supply chain sourcing and know exactly where the timber has come from. I wouldn't do it any other way.
  18. Apologies only just seen the questions about our Deltrak. It can work on slopes up to 60 degrees. It loves brambles, tall lush grass, thistles etc.... They're very expensive new - ours is an ex-Danish military 2008 machine with 500 hrs. Has a 42" heavy duty flail head fitted, with back to back flails. Can also be fitted with delta & hammer flails. We offer it nationwide with an operator (me). Have a look here: http://horticman.co.uk/irus-deltrak Any questions or want help on a site, drop me an email. Matt
  19. Here's the other stack...
