  1. Thanks for the reply. Bloody hell, I’ve been reading it all there this evening. I knew it was coming from old posts but didn’t think it would be policed or as strict. I see people saying they will sell it 2cubed + green with paper stating how the customer will need to dry it themselves and use it as a way to get around regulations. I’m guessing this will be stamped out too
  2. Hi all was wondering if you could possibly pass on some companies in Northern Ireland/ Republic of Ireland that would deliver Artic loads of cordwood for processing so I can get an idea of who to contact. I’ve bought a new place with a yard and outsheds and I’m looking to start a firewood business on the side. It is more of a hobby to fuel the home and looking to make a bit on the side out of it. What kind of money am I looking at in these crazy times of price hiking for artic soft/hardwood delivered. Also what kind of demand is there for softwood? Personally I like the way spruce dries so fast but it does burn a little fast and needs to be a nice size. Or is wood burners your only target if selling softwood. Would love if some of you in the business would shed some light on the above in these current times.

  4. Hi all, new to the site. I was hoping to get a little advice for my first chainsaw. I’ve used my dads husky over the years but want to bite the bullet. My mind is set in getting a MAKITA EA4300F45C 43CC. I was originally going to get the Husqvarna 435 mk2 but having looked at all the advice people have got in the past in these forums and others the Makita sound like a great piece of equipment for what I want it for. I hope this isn’t a stupid question but if I do buy this, will I struggle to get it serviced or would any know where to go if I needed to. I’m based in Armagh Northern Ireland and the Husqvarna seems to be a safe option for servicing down the line as it’s sold nearby. Gosford equipment Ltd. do sell dolmars and Makita but look like they have very few compared to other brands. Hoping to get my certs done (cs30,31,32,34) with this saw when all the dust settles around us and mostly use it for firewood on a regular enough basis. I wouldn’t be felling at the moment as most of the wood is lying but would ideally love to get into working with it eventually. Any advice would be great ?
