  1. How much do you want for the chains? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. You say in your post that the conditions for entry into the hat are that they have to 'share' 'like' and 'tag a friend' or similar to qualify. It's a very very cheap and easy way to trace your demographic too! Especially if you do a 'boosted' post, Facebook will give you lots of information on the age and locations of the people who interact with your post. Or if you know your market well you can target your post to a specific area, age range, their interests, their sex even! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. It's a fault of unscrupulous people who can't help but take advantage of the loopholes in the policy or try to work their way round the wording of the rules to work it in their favour. The rules are pretty sensible and simple but there are always those who take the piss because they have the audacity to get away with it. There's chicken producers throughout the country leaving the doors open during turnaround to generate more RHI when they should be turning the heat off. Unless a government inspector turns up and sees it they'll never get found out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. Any contacts for the guy, can't seem to find a website or details for them? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. You're completely missing my point. I have no issue with CHP or biomass in general, I'm taking about using the heat generated as a side product being used in a totally inefficient way because it's not their objective. We have a biomass installation because we want just the heat and we use it as efficiently as possible, including for drying firewood in a properly designed insulated chamber/kiln. Our boiler went in for heating our livestock sheds and saving electricity. We save more in electric&gas that we get in RHI so the logs are just as side line. Anyone blasting air into a hangar or shed to 'dry' logs, should have their RHI payments removed imho. (Grain drying floors excluded) There are a few people I've heard of drying green waste with and to burn in their CHP systems, after already being paid to take it from the council, who are then being paid RHI. Now that's just burning wood for the sake of burning wood and is completely immoral. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. I was referring to their method of drying logs. Blasting hot air into a hangar without any recirculation or humidity control is a massive waste. It could be put to much better use for very little expense. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. I find it weird they have such a 'professional' looking site and business yet have zero reviews on their products? They must be paying absolutely sod all for their round wood to charge those prices though. All the faffing around of processing, bagging and storing really adds up! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. That is an enormously inefficient way of drying logs so therefore hugely wasteful. Same as the guys who are the topic of the thread. Drying floor for logs is completely wrong. A few of our competitors do it locally and its crap. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. Can anyone point me towards sone biomass chipper guys in the Teesside area please? Ideally someone who'd be happy to do a few hours or a half day type job as we haven't loads of chip storage. G30 grade. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. [emoji85][emoji85] A log hook fell in the Vermeer 4090 without us noticing. Nice bill for a new set at £250+vat Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. We're getting a nice steady stream this year. 10ish cube a week, 90% probably brand new stove owners from the stove installers recommendations. Very lucky to have good relationships with 3 good local installers. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. [emoji85] tell them to run it under a tap before they burn it! It's Unreal what some customers come out with. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  14. I've never had the time or the man power to set on and do a full load of timber with our Tajfun 400 but with a second pair of hands, the 360 and grab to keep the deck loaded im certain I could do a 25t load in 8 hours with it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. Sounds like you need a mid sized excavator with a screw splitter or a big horizontal PTO splitter. I saw our over size down to 1m lengths to quarter with our 22ton horizontal and then put through the Tajfun 400. Its a slow job and it makes more economical sense to pay £10 a ton more for timber that all fits through the processor. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  16. Where are you? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. Been sawing these lovely straight 4m lengths of pine up into manageable lengths to hand ball into the chipper for the biomass boiler. Was all going lovely until as we lost the light, a timber hook fell into the chipper unbeknownst to us and mangled up all3 blades [emoji85][emoji85] hopefully we can get them ground right back and still use them but it was rather frustrating!

  18. No, but usually the wagon is just the haulier. The timber dealer will email you all the documents every time. Ours does. They know it's needed for RHI so they have it to hand. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. And decent, legit timber trader will have all those details for any timber felled. Grants, licenses, management plans the lot. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. Woodbioma.lt sell/make them. No bought any but if the website is anything to go by they look a pro outfit. They print them with your own design if you order a full pallet or more. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. Charnwood C4 is a good shout for your heat requirements. I love mine, plenty of control and I used a stove fan with mine too. Works great! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  22. It's not as good as it used to be because the process they used to do to make it at coal mines isn't done the same way anymore I believe. You can get a full barrel of it and then soak the wood in it for best effect. It's what we do for fence posts. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  23. The guy at our works could build you one no problem just let me know what length you want it/how much adjustment you need? Alternatively, try spaldings or MDT agricultural spared. The kind of thing you're after is a depth adjustment leg for a subsoiler or cultivator or even a tractor mounted yard brush would have one on. I know cos there's one sat in our workshop.

  24. Where are you based? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  25. Thanks, very kind of you to say so! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
