    Yeah, job mostly done. The tidy-up continues tomorrow but the main bit is done.
    The main cost was in trying to preserve as much of the trees as possible so in ended up a bit like Jenga for big boys. In the end it all seemed to work well. I've never seen a chipper like the thing we were using tho. It took in 8inch diameter branches and spat out sawdust. Definitely wouldn't want to be on the wrong side of that. There was also a mini log mover so in the end we shifted almost 7 tons of Beech tree trunk in a couple of hours.











    In addition to now being skint I'm also knackered!!

    7 tons! That's a lot. I hope you've still got the logs!? 7 tons of good firewood has got to be worth over a grand? Equipment like that don't come cheap.
