  1. Cant see it making much difference. I've not had any problems running the smaller wheels.
  2. I bought a magnetic receiver, for mounting on the digger arm, for digging to a specific depth, using a laser level. Has anyone used one before, and did you like it?
  3. Not good, not good at all
  4. The head board frame looks like its made from Meccano
  5. Ford Ranger. I get 6.8 cubic meters of logs in, which is in the region of 2 + tonnes, depending on soft/hardwood. I also deliver tonne pallets of briquettes and get two on at a time. She is worked hard
  6. I have a 10 x 5 Ifor tipper, two year old in October. She's on the road pretty much every day and hasn't given one ounce of bother.
  7. I have an Ifor 10 x 5 tipper, coming up for two year old in October. She is on the road 7 days a week, and takes a lot of abuse, and i've never had any problems with it.
  8. Heavy haulage
  9. You've not got enough hands? I don't foresee any problems. I've done pto and hydraulic work at the same time (side mounted grass topper, if you don't keep pumping oil round, its pulls itself back round)
  10. Not at all. Might be a different story with some twisted stuff. A good idea, in the ideal world
  11. I think Binderberger have a horizontal splitter with a feeding deck. If I recall, it feeds to splitter, then moves the billets away after splitting.
  12. Getting air flow through the pile of paper/sawdust will be the problem. I know folk who have tried sawdust on bed driers before with limited success. You need to keep the product agitated. A drum drier would be better suited for this type of material.
  13. I bought and used a billet bundler for the first time this year. I stacked the bundles three high and it appears to have worked well. Yes it I double handling, but its the most efficient way to reduce oversized timber, in my opinion. It also gives me flexibility when customers want non stock lengths. I quite enjoy splitting billets, no explanation why. I hate cutting them with the circular saw, mind numbingly boring.
  14. Ok, makes sense, thanks.
  15. What's your reasoning for splitting it so quick? Out of interest. I find birch can be very stringy, fresh cut or if its sat for a while. As you said, I think the vertical splitter is the way to go.
  16. Two bottles of whisky and a set of pliers.
  17. Its over 300bhp
  18. Shes gorgeous
  19. 250 tonne a year doesnt seem much for three boilers
  20. Ok you've lost me..... So if they buy 1.7cm, they are not buying by the cubic meter, they are buying by the.......tonne, truck load, barrow full?
  21. Thanks for posting pictures. Its not quite right for me so I will pass.
  22. yes post a picture
