I-buy-logs

Yes we have 20 molds takes about a day to make the 20

i lego block will last 50 years if you use railway sleeper bays only last till one of our diggers hit it so there not as ecologically unsound as you would think

Fresh made blocks

The Lego blocks can hold a couple of hundred ton of aggregates per bay no problem

Yeah we make them Lego bricks a ton each in weight

We go for the IBC cages stacked what's any one else do to avoid mold ?

if any one needs a weighbridge in the Hull area you can use ours for free no problem ours is digital print out aswell

4 nets for £10 in hull

no thats timber thats been air dried for 6 mths kiln dried is obviously a bit less weight moisture is around the low 20s people burn as soon as buying from us.

no im not joking i have a certified weighbridge on site and weighing them thats the weight that we got them to i don't think 280 kg for a builders bag overflowing is particularly heavy is it ? for us having a weighbridge it seams logical to sell on weight on decent orders.

barnsley bob a load of cord comes on a 80m2 lorry stacked and you get 52m2 split ??? the 1m2 crates of kiln dried on ebay weigh 500kg so i thing 600kg is about right.

im looking for whole sale orders really say 10 ton that would be about 20m3 for say £1200 or somewhere around that price we have so much wood coming in we need some wholesale outlets we could do this amount a day i reckon

no the timber is cut split and dried . ready for sale

We have got a massive stockpile of air dried logs maybe 100-200 ton plus.

All cut and split all hard wood what price should i be selling them lose for we obviously sell logs, by the builders bag nets and cubes but not by weight normally but i want to get in to the wholesale market. we have weighed a bulk bag and a m3 crate

A net roughly 11-15 kg

A builders bag is 280-300 kg

A 1 m3 crate is 580-600 kg

So on a load of say a ton would around £120 be about the right price or £140 delivered ?

any thoughts ?

Out of interest why the pallet wrap on the IBCs ? Would have thought it would hinder drying in the dryer.

It helps stop the driving rain were Beeing hammerd lately if we stack them waiting for drying it makes a bit of difference in time

It's not the best of weather splitting is pooring rain is no good makes drying a pain in the a@se

always silly poeple on these forums on the left of the picture is our dryer we split outside then dry for a few days i was refering to the weather affecting passing trade not the moisture in a log

we have had practically non stop rain for the last 6 weeks in sunny Hull its making the whole long process a pain in the AR*S

any one else seeing any changes in sales i think its as much people don't want to come to our yard and get drenched.

Then he was an idiot! Not a lot anyone can do to stop people like that trying to kill themselves.

On a hycrack if you keep the point of the cone just to the left of the centre of the log and only place your hands at the back and left of the log it WILL NOT bite you, in fact most of the time you end up letting go of the log as soon as the point has taken hold, it then just pulls itself on.

As I say this is on a hycrack, can't speak for other types of cone splitter.

Cone splitters are far to dangerous for today's type of business there is as fast equipment and 10 times safer cone splitters in the mode experienced hands can still nip and bite like any splitter just far less forgiving

1.80 a net comes with full car receipt delivery down to you would be roughly 2-300 tops kindling £1

Stobarts on long runs about £2 a mile we buy from London deliverd to hull £525 + vat

A 27 ton load takes up about 2 3rds of a walking floor on an arctic mabe 50-80ms not including void space it is very hard to work out this I do know a builders bag of green fresh cut hard various woods in about 275kg-400kg very wet when seasond can be 150-275 kg

We get about 2m3 to a ton of uncut logs

were local

we do 1000 nets for £1800 kindling is £1 per net prices include vat

Yeah bio mass is a big business these days

As more stoves are put in more briquette machines get fitted to joinery workshops and the more i see signs saying logs for sale every man and dog is on the logs for sale band wagon.

I buy briquettes from 2 different suppliers the dust in the bag is not normally a sign of a good or bad briquette in my opinion i sell 1000s of m2 a year of logs so im biased towards logs and i would say there is allot more consistency with briquettes I pay £1.50 for 15kg leaves a nice profit margin but it also affects the log sales as some people are going for a couple of nets and a bag of briquetts.

as for trading standards setting a standard for logs are you koking 1 wet night with a damp log or raining when delivering then and we would all be issuing full refunds and end up in court .

turn the preasure release valve up slowly till you get what you need i have mine full mine works till it stalls the engine
