  1. [quote name= Pricing is another matter entirely, one bag yields £170 worth of netted kindling at my wholesale price. Thoughts please folks...[/quote] That would depend on your bag size and the price you charge per bag
  2. Pm sent
  3. The anti biomass voice is starting to get louder Use Wood Wisely

    Conveyors

    Thanks for both replys, I've looked into both options and gone with treequips idea and bought an old lister elevator,
  5. Any one use stand alone hydraulic conveyor? Any advice on build quality , prices etc Thanks Frank
  6. Is that the tree in question on the link??? Might move the sun lounger first!
  7. Cutting some spruce other day, heard something nasty, NAILS Old pheasant pens,
  8. Talking with my timber supplier about this, this morning , he said a lot of the sawmills are also importing timber if price goes up, theyll start using uk sourced again ,tightning up firewood supplies
  9. The damn thing went bang before I had chance to put a decent bar on it! Watch this space
  10. I once sold an item on eBay, sent it with parcel 2 go through yodel Tracking number showed it had been delivered but the signature was a different name Buyer claimed never received item Ended up having to refund buyer and lost the item, I even looked the address up on Google Street view, let's just say it wasn't the best of areas Used parcel force ever since
  11. Or don't put as much in other end
  12. If you slowed conveyor down doesn't it make kindling thinner??? When kindlet first came out the pump used to run slower, then they brought out what I think they called a turbo pump, I can remember getting the uprated kit for mine, Old pump I kept for a spare I always think it's the bagging side which slows it down
  13. Time will tell, It's possible that it's been run on poor quality fuel or not adequate oil or both But not in the time I used it
  14. Steve Saw is now boxed up and will be sent down to you tomorrow, I will Pm you when I have more details Thanks again Frank
  15. Just to clarify I bought the saw in good faith I contacted the seller to tell them the problem and agreed A price with the seller for the saw as it is, they have refunded me the difference and I OWN the saw. The purpose of the thread is to find out why it happened And maybe save someone else's saw I could say a lot more, But it would only derail the thread for those who are interested
  16. This morning thought I'd try to find cause, Removed fuel line no leaking Removed carb boot no cracking Reassembled cylinder, boot, carb Cut some innertube rubber strips put one between exhaust and gasket The other between the carb and boot Put compreser on to pulse tube gave it a little blast of air Used daughters bubble mixture in hand spray and this is what I found Let me know what you think
  17. For the cost of posting it back, I could easily replace piston /ring But what else would need to be replaced/tested, to try and stop it happening again
  18. There was a tiny amount of fuel in tank, I filled it to about half, fired it up, ran it about 10 min, thought it sounded as though it was running out of petrol Topped it up but it wasn't empty Run for another 5min Compression was good when first started , maybe to good Cylinder is a mahle, so I think it will be original But when stripped it, it was very clean round about it no dust, oil??? After that ran 254 on same petrol,same wood and a 2" bigger bar rest of day
  19. Yes through PayPal, see what happens Pity though, nice saw Think it would be worth repairing,
  20. Feedback 96.5% Two negative in last twelve months, Is a refund given after goods have been returned or before, Might say never got it returned, then no refund, no saw
  21. That's what I think but to h**l with it, he would know it wasn't right So I've messaged him, cheer him up a bit!
  22. It had crossed my mind,
  23. You are open to some options now like fitting a 372 top end and carb ....... Ha, I would do it in a minute But need to know what happened first
