  1. Green £100 wholesale Air dried at 20% mc £175 Kiln dried at 8% mc £200-£300 This is all dependant on decent character. All prices are a vague guide. [emoji106]
  2. I only sell whole boards. If you want 1m you’ll have to buy the whole thing. Otherwise it’s madness. [emoji106]
  3. I don’t cut much over 10’ these days. However if you can move and store longer pieces it’s better[emoji106]
  4. These are the same boards after a little air and light. [emoji106]
  5. The cube trees are weird too. 🤣🤣🤣
  6. That piece was at least 8” deep. Even if I’d have detected it, I would’ve still milled the log. Small nails and wire aren’t a problem. Bars and pulleys are. 🤣[emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]
  7. Found some more **** in the olive ash today. [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]
  8. Gets better mate... Had a burred English elm to cut fir a client.... lucky bugger. About 5’x2’ [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]
  9. Whereabouts are you based? What are you looking for? Hard/softwood? Cordwood? Rings? Split kiln dried? What quantities are you able to take? What price would you be looking to pay? [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]
  10. I had 2 pairs of these bookmatched. Now imagine another pair below. 3 circle table? [emoji106]
  11. You know yiu want an 881[emoji6][emoji106]
  12. They are a good milling saw, but very old now. Parts are very expensive. Test the compression before you buy and check it’s got a stihl engine. [emoji106]
  13. Well it’s going better today. [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]
  14. Maybe put an advert on here? Lots of suppliers on this forum. [emoji106]
  15. That log ain’t no 12% mc bud. Nearly all solid fresh cut wood is similar density to water, some slightly more. [emoji106]
  16. So can I expect a delivery? [emoji848][emoji106]
  17. Nowhere near 5 ton. It’s about a metre average. @750 kg X 4.3m.... You could cut it at 1.8 at top end, put that on van, then the other 2 ton on the trailer. [emoji106]
  18. Stop it ya big tease! [emoji6]🤣 I’ll call you in a bit mate[emoji106]
  19. @spuddog0507 this is your fault! 🤣🤣🤣I need some better logs mate! [emoji6][emoji106]
  20. It’s going wrong[emoji22][emoji22][emoji22] 3’ x 9’ olive ash. Heavy duty screw right in the middle. And four nails. Last photo is the teeth from my chain I found.
  21. Which list do I start with....🤣 A yard... 100k++++ Vehicle with crane to move 5 ton+ logs whole from precarious off road situation. Bandsaw that can cut 2.4m Telehandler Massive warehouse Racking system Tractor Forklift Its a bit longer... but you get the idea. 🤣[emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]
  22. That’s a fair point. The frustrating thing is banks only look at cash. No one has asked about assets. Money in the bank is useless generally for me. I’d much rather buy another thing off my endless list of machinery or more big logs. But yeah I should probably take banking more seriously. 🤷🏽‍♂️
  23. Every 6 months I get a call from my bank asking if I’m running a business through my personal account. They tell me I must open a business account. Which they turn me down for because I don’t have 6 months without missing a direct debit. For 8 years now.
  24. I’ve had **************** all help during COVID. Banks won’t give me a business account, because I don’t have a stack of cash in my account. Yet nearly every business I know has had tens of thousands thrown at them, viable business or not. I’m not paying anyone else’s grants and loans off.
