We had a log burner recently fitted in the house and the builder said they were fitting 4/ 5 a week so its certainly something people need, i'll probably save up and buy a processor, but i could do with getting fit so might do without for the momentGo for it rob. Just dont sell cheap. Get the logs bone dry and you have a premium product that is worth good money.

john you put in a big boilr bit like farm 2000 and use all waste , saw dust , and all bits off cleaner and burn that to make the heat for kiln dryingHardly say the firewood kiln is free you still have to feed it with firewood which I would prefer selling to customers at £100 per m3. I have looked at it but unfortunately its not suitable for use in a smoke control area so instead I will be using a solar drying kiln claiming RHI and Fits.
I can only see the prices going 1 way. The woodburner is definalty the 'in thing' in many town houses and alike.

better off without i.m.oWill
Thats fine for normal people but this free kiln has been set up specifically to reclaim commercial RHI payments and as such you cannot use waste, saw dust and all bits off cleaner only approved wood from a RHI wood suppliers list who has proved that all his timber is from approved sustainable timber resources. Total red tape but if you get inspected and cannot prove the authenticity of supply then your RHI payments will be stopped and any previous unsubstantiated payments recovered. Personally I dont have a problem as all my timber is dried in a solar kiln although I will be improving the kiln to enable a commercial RHI claim to be made.
just use chainsaw and axe for the stuff atm, it'l be more of a hobby than work, thought i'd put my money in something worthwhile rather than getting pee'd up and spending money on old bikes, lol.Have u done logs before? Just start with a chainsaw and splitter, until u cant keep up and then get a processor. There aint the money in the job imo to buy all the kit before getting the customers first
anyone doing kindling
Where do you get your blanks from if you use them do you use a machineI do, although not a major part of what I do but gives added product range.
Any poplar I get is turned into planks using a rack saw then turned into kindling using a log processor.Where do you get your blanks from if you use them do you use a machine
If you are selling firewood be wary of the vat/ tax man mate of mine got clobbered years ago.
just don't be vat registered what's the threshold 70k that's a lot of firewood unless your doing it through your already vat registered businessAlso be aware you have two rates of 5% and 20%. It becomes complicated when you supply a customer at a domestic rate of 5% then you catch them reselling and have to charge them 20%.
