Wow I am going to have to where my sunglasses to watch your videos if you keep adding the shiny stainless steel to your truck. Looking nice JO.

Nothing special - just that I like when odd bits and pieces become useful.
The squeeky sound I’ve noticed lately was the bolt holding the anti-roll bar that snapped and was eating into the lower rocker arm.
I cut a piece of 3/8" water pipe and cut a few pieces of exhaust rubbers into shape. With a new 1/2" bolt and some odd brackets it looks as good as new or even better. Cost $0.

Who can resist when offered free of charge obtainium? Fired up the woodburner, brought the jack and scored 4 good tires. Also, I have throttle bodies, dutributors, lights and computers from these two Mazdas already in a box in my garage.

The black one obviously has a slightly weak frame :smile:

Pay day today.

A WK-saying I remember:
“Poor folks have poor ways” :smile:

A short stop to tighten the straps, before entering the city center.

Not poor at all JO, looking good.

May I ask about the selling price? I payed €350 a m3 last year for my parents.

How do you load/ unload this?

€350 per m3 ??? :astonished:
Those bags are 1.5m3 each and I charged €100 + €10 for the 40km roundtrip delivery. This is low quality spruce, but overall firewood is still relativly cheap up here.

I load with a three-point fork-lift on the 1947 Fergie. If the front tires stay on the ground I know the firewood is dry :smile:

Oef, a Fergie is a real tractor compared to a Kubota. If I only point at 1 m3 firewood he starts wheeling and tries to run away. Agria is ok, he doesnt care at all.

€100? Prices dropped overhere but still above €200/ m3. Make me a quote please. Do you deliver in the Netherlands?:grinning:

Just to clarify - €100 is the price for all three m3 = €33 per m3.

Calculate the €10 for every 40 km and see what it adds up to - from here to NL and back again. Get back to me and tell me if you’re still interested :smile:

:grinning::grinning::grinning:. If I rember correct you are about 1600 km away. €800 for transport. Take a few more m3 with you and we have a deal. :grinning::ok_hand:

Joep, now you are moving in an area where 1 cubic meter costs from 50-70 Euro, next year plan to come with a truck, you will have paid vacation and travel expenses.

I have to say that 33€/m3 is very cheap even here. It is usually between 50 and 70€ looking around on marketplace and such these days.

I know, but it’s dead spruce and I have to do away with it somehow anyway. I almost don’t want to burn it myself. Extreemly bulky. I can’t charge more and still have a clean conscience.

I understand and I would feel the same way. And now when you say it I think we already had this discussion before, it is just as if I didn’t remember that :innocent:

Day off from logging. Tractor trailer disconnected. Let the truck relax with some light chores. One of them beeing a small batch of recreational limbwood for chunking. Not a lot of miles, but the gasifier has been lit and producing gas on and off all day long.
