Matelot? although I can see why you could mix him n waspyjane up[emoji3] I have no problem wearing company shirts when subbing as long as they're clean (preferably new) but I don't think it necessarily mean your hiring a quality firm, I've worked for and known some arborists etc who drove ropey old trucks n wore raggedy ol trousers wi Kevlar hanging out (they looked more like a moulting sheep) who were well qualified, dedicated and efficient then I've seen a couple of crews who have all the matching hi viz flash new truck n shiny chipper etc and they were just..... **** Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

A friend of mine rescues bull breeds, he has a staffy that was rescued as a pup from an abandoned house where it had eaten all its siblings to survive, he's a lovely dog but attack tree trunks randomly, if he gets the opportunity. It's usually smaller trees but he will go for bigger trunks like in your pictures. He has not been trained/encouraged to do this Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

Used one but can't remember what model, it has similar power to my bg 85 (6?) but the vibration is horrendous, made my hands start to tingle after a couple of minutes, the stihl has next to none Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

Because he only knows the ideal for his burner, why so negative Gary? This is a very interesting (and funny at times) thread. I have been guilty of some of Logdesperate's gripes, but long ago (over 20 yrs) when I was greener than the logs I was selling ( got stuck with a load of lime and horse chestnut once but I had to use it as I didn't have anything else ) I've learned a lot and now offer customers an 'honest' log: I am clear that it is a LOOSE load (either 2m3 or 3.5m3) and that stacked it will be about 3/4 of loose volume It has been felled 2 yrs but as we process off the stack the moisture can be as much as 25% depending on species but is more usually around 20% I make sure I know what size ( length and girth ) they want. One advantage of process straight on truck. I still get short of seasoned cord (all hardwood) towards the end of the season (end April to mid May) on occasion and ask the customer if they'd be happy to take a half n half load of dry and green logs as most won't use a lot of it til Autumn I put oak aside and process and season separately for a further their year, usually, at 18" for pubs or to mix in later. I'm slowly building up a stock of ibc s so I can process all year round and keep ahead Never had any major complaints and a good 50% of my customers are using logs as sole source of heat Nobody's perfect[emoji3] Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

I have odd shaped feet and had Andrews for a while, very comfy, the first pair were brilliant and lasted nearly 2 years but the 2nd pair, which I bought while the old uns were re soled, weren't as good quality (lining collapsed, lower eyes were steel instead of brass amongst other things), they died after a year but the others live on f troshin about in.
