Looking for free unprocessed wood - Harpenden
bilke_user replied to Purplestickmen's topic in Firewood forum
I only burn conifer. In the days when I had an open fire I'd only burn hardwoods, preferably beech or birch. The softwoods spark too much on the open fire -

All sounds good. We buy chain in 100' rolls. Do Piranha do 100' rolls? If so I'd be very interested in .325" and 3/8"

Ah, the Rancher was the first saw that I bought new, many years ago......1981 I think it was. Worked it for 3 years, changed the carb on it from a grey top one and it worked well for another 12 years, then i sold it to my younger brother who still uses it to cut slabs for the kiln at his pottery. Only other saw I had that was as reliable (actually more reliable in hot weather) was my old 166.

Thanks for that. I find that it's just the 12-14" stuff that really needs re-splitting especially if the customer wants short length logs......there's some that look like slices of cake. I made a lever for splitting from the knife side, it's handy and reasonably quick for re-spitting. My biggest concern is that if I need to change the knife regularly for differing sizes I'd be as well just re-splitting and accepting a little time loss in a day I can imaging there would be a lot more debris with the 6 way splitter, but I might be wrong.

Just bought a WP36 processor that has a 4 way blade on it. Great for processing stuff up to 10" but a lot of larger stuff needs re splitting which takes up time. Wonder if anyone uses a 6 way blade and finds them to be much better. Reluctant to pay £500 for something that will be chucked in the back of the shed to gather cobwebs. Thanks in advance John

I'd say the bloke conning you out of the 3K was the moron, you'll just be like the rest of us normal folks.....trusting

Sure the ref made a bad call, but the Scots made a bad call throwing long in the line-out, where a throw to the front would have sufficed. We lost the game due to bad decisions, just look at Finn Russell when he caught the ball inside his 22, instead of calling a mark he opted to give a dreadful pass which in turn led to the Aussies running in another try. We have improved a bit since the 6 nations, but we are still not near to the level of the Aussies or any of the other semi finalists. Time will help, but there's still a need for a conveyor belt of young talent to nurture and guide in the right direction .

Phoned about it, almost as cheap buying new from M Large in Antrim by the time haulage to here is added. No come and go on price and not willing to deal through eBay's system. Still looking
