That's an iteresting write up we bought our kindlet in 2010 but have a machine that dates back to the 1900 also and my late grandfather has been doing kindling for the past 50yrs as the winter part of his shed and garden furniture business I currently have around 150-175ton of wood ready for this winter to be chopped I only supply about 15 local shops and supply itin a 25kg sack with around 8-9kg of wood per bag about nets worth I won't say what I charge wholesale but what should I be charging I don't know if I'm to greedy or not charging enougth Talking of kindlets when we bought ours number 311 I spoke to the delivery driver on the open day he said he was delivering 4-5 machines within 1 mile radiusofeach other and quite often how can these boys sustain it so local to each other Steve

I agree it is an odd first post as there arnt many forums like this I have had to go round the house just to find out cpl supply the bags there selfs but yet that wouldn't tell me that via email also they won't give a indication on price I think tbh honest I would be better just finding a few extra outlets locally Thanks for the feedback stevd
