Hi all, I am brand new to woodland management and would really appreciate some help and advice. Based in Kent, I have just coppiced some 12 / 15 yr old chestnut from my in-laws woodland that surrounds their farm, all cut to approx 10 ft lengths, nice and straight pieces, ranging from 5inches to 10 inches diameter. It's has been stacked by the roadside for easy loading. Its quite a big stack, maybe 100 - 120 lengths. I am not sure how to price this up so I can sell it. What is the best way to determine how much wood is in the stack, and is it better to calculate in weight or volume? Thank you in advance Matt -
Hello, I am based in Essex near Brentwood. I have been clearing trees on our property and would like to have them milled into useable timber. Some of the trees were taken down in May 2021 and some came down in a storm a few years ago so are seasoned. Trees include cherry, birch, pine and chestnut. There is excellent access to the site from a main road. If anyone is interested in doing the milling at the property, please contact me or if you have any recommendations please send them my way. Any help much appreciated. Thank you.

Hello all! I am self employed, and currently looking for work within the West Sussex/Hampshire area! I've been involved in the chestnut coppice industry for just over 2 years. And after spending the last 2 years processing, I now want to start cutting. I hold a CS30 ticket, and am first aid trained, and I am looking for 1-5 days work a week during the cutting season. I have my own transport (not 4x4) and my own equipment. Any experience I can gain would be greatly appreciated. Please email: [email protected]

I lack experience and need to quote for felling sweet chestnut coppice, dense, growing 20-24 years. How many tonnes do you think can be felled an hour - based on your own experience? Cheers.

Hiya, I'm planning a stock fencing job using sweet chestnut for the strainers and intermediates etc. A couple of questions if anyone's got experience of this please: I'm planning on using 3-4" round intermediates for a more 'conventional' look. Do you know whether cleaved profiles would give a significantly longer life because there's less sapwood? I'd expect a better lifespan but need to judge whether it's significantly better - hoping 3-4" thick enough to balance this out. Bark on seems to blend into the landscape much better, do you know how much this would reduce the lifespan of the fence? Can anyone recommend a good supplier? Shipping is down to Cornwall so will need bulk to keep transport down. Many thanks!!
