  1. Round here you can get a potato box of hardwood for £20 delivered (beer boys) Not far down the road, you can get kiln dried hardwood for £50 a cube. I sell a box of hardwood for £121 delivered
  2. True. If we had some arrow straight cord at 400mm in diameter, we'd both be rich
  3. Been having a butchers at the big x now called Easy 50. Looks to have a £30k price tag. Seems expensive, as the 1 x 42 is around £16K. Can a Easy 50 be almost twice the machine?
  4. Or use a forced air intake at the bottom? As the youtube tomato grower did. Simple but effective idea.
  5. Remote. Anything that makes life eassier
  6. Would it work using a rectangular tank on the bottom? I have an old, narrow style diesel tank.
  7. Iam a 1 x 42 lover
  8. Ok, thanks, that's what I thought. Alot more fine dust from the pallets as well, I guess this wouldn't help reach a high temperature.
  9. All nails removed. I guessed it could be dirt. We used pallets for a short time for manufacturing briquettes, but the silica content was too high. Ok, now I see why you want a consistent particle size.
  10. Can i ask what goes wrong? Excuse my ignorance, not had many dealings with biomass boilers. I thought, if it was clean wood, it would burn.....? I supplied a guy with shredded pallets, he had bother with klingkers?
  11. Ok, i can see what your saying. The crane i was using that day was very slow, and i wasnt ablt to keep up, so the chipper was finished before i got the next lot of sticks in, so there were gaps.

  13. Ok. Always learning. Might look at trading it in then.
  14. Really? That surprises me. I used to put stuff at least 3 times bigger through an old grain auger with no problem. I thought the whole idea of these chip burners were that they burnt a multitude of stock? Seems crazy that they are so fussy.
  15. Bandit Beast 1680. Wasnt bought for its "chipping" capabilities, but due to a change in circumstances, i thought rather than it sitting going rusty, i could chip with it. It doesnt look like its going to meet the grade though.
  16. The machine is not a dedicated "chipper" The machine was set up as a chipper, i.e sharp knifes and a screen
  17. No, it was round wood, felled approx 2 years ago, spruce, pine and larch
  18. I have been asked on several occasions to produce G50 spec chip. Being a firewood merchant, iam not all that clued up on whats good and whats not when it comes to wood chip. Not 100% sure what boilers want/need. Here is a few pictures of what my machine produced, any thoughts/comments would be much appreciated. Iam not sure if this is of good enough quality?

  20. I don't see why people diss like electrics. Hydraulics can be as much of a menace as electrics. Repairing a wire is much quicker and easier to fix than a burst hose, or sticky valve.
  21. Good eye candy as well, if you pick wisely
  22. Too wet for pellets. Needs to be sub 10%. Mine goes for horse bedding. Horsesy folk love it, as there is little to no dust. I charge £10 a bag and it flys out the door.
  23. I also pay. Iam looking to take on a second yard, and paying twice will be a bit of a killer. I want the business to grow, and its hard enough in this industry. If there is a legal way to keep my overheads to a minimum, iam interested, if not, there is less of an incentive to expand.
