    Hello, Jake here - Ashley, you're right, I didn't respond very quickly but I thought I'd share the conversation at it seems a little miss represented here. (of course confidential details hidden)

    I prefer the kiln-dried Ash or Oak, but last year I took a job-lot of 2xM3 "various" from some local lads and their start-up business and it was mainly pine. It all burnt though and no harm seems to have been done.

    I have no insewerants to check with. I ceased that scam about 15 years ago. However, now that I am becoming old, frail etc. etc. I may give it another go. :D

    Part of what we have been doing is disposing of fruit trees that I took down a while back. We have been burning those and W likes to take all the twigs off for kindling and the next size up for the next stage before we put logs on. It works well...

    How big were the buckets 🤔 . But then we usually get about 2/3rd to 1/2 of bucket every year. Think the bucket is about the size of a 25l paint can, its a Karcher thing so the hoover does the work and it drops in the can. But then we do burn...
