    Yeah, two bays of 3m, the guys at Riko extended it for me. Never been in the woods with the Fastrac, its not very maneuverable, too heavy and clumsy. Ideal for roadside collections. She can pump oil fast, which is ideal for operating the crane.

    Do you need a tacho and operators license to tow a trailer with that?

    Its about 6k for a new Packfix. The net is around £80 to £100ex vat. A pack works out at approx £2s worth of net wrap, plus the price of a decent pallet.

    I run a Hakki Pilke 1x42. Had it for three years, and do between 600-800 tonnes a year. In all that time, the only thing that has gone wrong, recently, is a valve stuck, that's it. I have never had any problems at all with the machine, and is still as good as the day I bought it. If I were to upgrade, I would buy the 1x50, bigger cut, and the bigger the better in my opinion for hardwoods. I cant rate this machine high enough. I also have a Posch tilting saw, and its always got wee niggles, bits breaking off, bits bending or twisting. Pretty flimsy. Same with the Posch Packfix, its not the machine I thought. Again, pretty flimsy and expensive for parts.

    I personally think Posch is massively over priced for what it is. The machine have pretty small cutting diameters for the money. Just my opinion.

    SG Baker wont be beaten on quality. They may be beaten on price, bit the service and quality is brilliant.

    I assume this is due to lack of air flow? Or poor air flow?

    Ok, makes sense. I only ever produced material for making briquettes, and the more fines the better really to improve the overall briquette quality.
  11. briquette_seller
    I see the problem with over sized material, but whats wrong with fines in wood chip?

    80mm screen? Holly crap...... I was advised to use a one inch baffled screen (belt discharge, not blown) Massive difference....

    I buy scabby old broken boxes from the local farmers, max £5. Strip every second board, and use the boards I take off to strengthen the boxes at the ends, and base if needed. Takes a wee while right enough, but its a rainy day job.....

    That's the great thing about life. If we were all the same, the world would be a boring place.

    I use 1.7 cube log boxes, and the wood drys fast, no ifs or buts. I also use a Posch Packfix, making 1.6 cube nets, and the wood drys very fast, no ifs or buts

    Angus, just off the A90, between Dundee and Aberdeen. The machine is available for hire.

    Looking at G30 wood chip, it seems to vary in size and shape, i thought G30 was meant to be all roughly the same size, with a surface area of 30mm square. Does that make the overall size approx 6mm x 5mm? Or do i have this all wrong?

    Laburnum burns very well.

    No offence, but a Comafer press is not exactly regarded as a quality press within the industry. Ideal for a joinery workshop looking to compact there waste, but no good for a high quality producer

    If your truck/vehicle has seats in the back, i.e a crew cab, it is classed as a "dual purpose vehicle" and is tacho exempt.

    RHI payment must being going a very long way, £220 for 4 cube is keane, to say the least

    Maybe "kiln dried" means something different in Bulgaria? I guess something was lost in translation........... British homegrown timber is best, fact.

    Log boxes (potato box with every second board removed) stacked three high, with two sheets of tin on top box, with 4 concrete blocks to hold the tin down. Works a treat. Dry, mould free logs
