I live in rural Herefordshire and have found it hard to get smaller grade timber loads. We just process by hand for the extended family and only really want one or two loads a year. Winter 2024 is looking good we recently had ten tones of Oak and beech.
Your right. Budget your money. Stock up on the logs when you can. When I can I buy every truck I can get and just have rows and rows of logs. In the process and on finding the details on getting a kindlet shipped to me. All thanks to you. Haha
It might have been awesome to set up a go-pro or something on a tripod, set it to time lapse and go about your busy morning, split the content into 2 parts !! Absolutely loving what you do. Marky, Leigh, lancs UK :)
That was great seeing the wood. Think we can watch them cutting the timber and stacking it. I like what you are doing with the firewood. My question is your length is it 16 inches and the smaller stuff you cut what size is it. Just keep on producing doing a great job. Like watching
Alright mate, are there big differences in price between the species, such as an artic of Ash vs Oak and what are the differences in price when it comes to undersized/chip wood, premium (I'm guessing what you're after 250mm - 450mm) and oversized? How many totes do you produce out of an artic load? Have you considered getting a mill and cutting some slabs & hardwood timber in Summer?
Like your video mate, my question is as a small operator i dont have the funds to do arctic loads. How are you finding individual species from foresters? Im only able to access ash from dieback !!!
I tend to leave it 6 months minimum in the cord before putting them in the bulk bag to take the edge off, I also only cut on dry days so the wood is physically dry when going in the bag to give it it’s best chance 👍🏼
