Hi Guys, what is everyone in Ontario Canada paying for a load of logs (15 cords approx) also..anyone have any good log suppliers that would service Barrie Ontario? Thanks Adam

Hi Guys, looking for another hardwood log supplier that will deliver to Barrie Ontario area. looking for hardwood logs specs somewhat straight 8-14" diameter hardwood looking for 45 cords to start unlimited length is ok(full tree length is ok) contact me at...

Tried being nice this year doing some custom cutting we cut 16" as standard..however an old lady this year asked me to do a specific cord for her cut to 12"..took more time and had to hand load it so we did it.... and you know what I got for my pain...she called me up after and said the...

we use a rubber belted conveyor to stack the wood from our chomper...we had a chain drive one but it sucked... it runs on electric motor... all the chips fall off before the conveyor..i just throw them in a pile in the bush Adam

A Napolean high country can burn over 14hrs..however it has a hufe 4.8cu ft wood box..and can take 22"+ logs I have one..its great..it really pumps out the heat

Hi, I am up in Barrie area... what are you paying for a load..i get about 15 cords for $1600 Thanks Adam

I sell my wood for $290/cord and that includes free local delivery(within 15km) past that I add delivery charges..

EXACTLY!!!! i know I can do 1 cord every 1:45 min..lets say 2 hrs just to be very safe... lets do a 8hr day....thats 4 cords a day..20 cords a week....with a $15,000machine i would say unless your selling alot of wood...those other machines are overkill

my chomper which is the smallest and slowest does 1 cord in 1:45min..with 1 person

Re: Chomper if you dont shove any wood over 14" in teh 14" model or 16" in the 16 model...you wont have any issues...simple as that... I have run 30 cords thru mine...and the only jams were my fault for trying to fit too big diamter logs thru... no issues dragging the logs on the ground...

logs for chomper dont have to be green...have not cut any green logs yet wih it..all my logs have been sitting 1 year + before I cut them...no issues

here is a pic of our small operation..we did 30 cords last year..and are doing 90 cords this year

ohhh.... whats great as well.... no sharpening...and no chain oil ect....its maintanince free that way...ok you have to grease a few nipples now and then..and change the engine oil....thats about it... I have 70hours on the machine so far..

I have a manual Chomper 14.. I have not found any 14" logs of any species that it could not shear though yet...done 30 cords on it so far..no major issues..a few hydralic leaks...and a weld I had to fix..the dual stage pump crapped out almost right away..however Rainer shipped me a new one...

Fresh cut is above 40%.. seasoned is considered anything below 20%

RE: ELVATOR... yeah maybe its longer than 24ft... :) re: jams...is wood splinters that get jammed into the gear sprocket at the top of the elevator that usually jams it... re: chomper.... it produces very little waste...and the design is awesome IMO...yeah a few logs come in a bit...

its the 18hp honda powered version...and the elevator is just a 1hp electric motor powered... yeah I got the elevator for $350..i just keep it lubed with used motor oil..keep the belt tension low..so when it jams the chains dont break...it james every 2hrs or so..from a stray peice of...

hydralic shear like the chomper IMO is the only way to design a new system... I have a unit that can take 14" diamter logs...I would love to build a larger unit that can take 20"+ logs... the design is bullet proof it just has to be upscaled...

here is my set up.....

PEAK OIL is coming.... and ethanol is a scam...brought about by the farm lobbiest... its real cost is much higher once you add in the farm subsidies...not to mention the evnvironmental issues
