  1. Past hour
  2. Stihl also do a material cover for this filter, sure, it will impede airflow a bit but life is a compromise!
  3. I’m just wondering if anyone has any experience of using reinforcing mesh to make firewood cages. The delivery on IBC totes is prohibitive but I have a few euro pallets that I could make a cage on. I was thinking of using the lightest reinforcing mesh for reinforcing concrete (A142 mesh) Any advice from anyone who has tried this would be appreciated
  4. Right ya wee fanny, been a bit busy today but predictably you are here again. Ok for starters I’m sure Mark is very appreciative of you appointing yourself as his guardian and discussing his ” health” issues here. Well SP/TA judging by some of the posts and the time they are put out and Marks own comments Id say still partakes of the devils vomit. You do know that alcoholism cannot be cured !!. Total abstinence can keep it under control. You really need to educate yourself wee man. Try and be a bit more original, come up with some of your own lines or material 😂. There’s one good thing to come out of you now focussing on Marks health and that’s your rape obsession seems to be being tamed by your current role.
  5. I don’t know why I put that up really. It’s more of a fact than a joke!

    Devon style

    Speaking to a hedgelayer mate just now and he reckons the styles were just the product of a very unglobalised world. You’d marry a girl from the next village and might see a hedge there, but no further afield. Still not a full answer.
  7. Have broken ribs 4 times before so know the drill, got to get worse before it gets better.
  8. True how ever the were some that were very good at it , like foresters and tree surgeons ,
  9. Ouch. In case you have not experienced cracked ribs before, don't be alarmed by the pain getting worse over a few days, that's the normal pattern. I have done it twice.
  10. I used to do it for fun , with a fiskars billihook, axe and bahco 10" bowsaw way before I was allowed to use a chainsaw , I cant remember metre rates now alot of it depends on where you are in the UK i guess. Whats the max diameter of stems u think is in the hedge
  11. Volunteers can do open heart surgery. Doesn’t mean they’re going to do a good job.
  12. Following with interest. I put over 30m of young easy going this morning and was planning to stake and bind so it’s vaguely South of England. Had a go with a bit of stuff I cut from a hazel stool. Probably three or four feet between stakes. It looks shit (so shit I’m going to pull it out tomorrow before too many people see it). Spoke to a mate who lays it. No wonder it looks shit. Done properly it uses three stakes and one binder per meter! Anyway. Won’t be cheap. Off the top of my head, pulled out of my arse, back of a fag packet, frankly guessing, £40 a meter? Tell us your quote when a couple more of us have had a guess.
  13. Today
  14. Plenty of volunteers run the London Marathon each year - doesn't make it easy 😁 They're fairly thick stems and it's a long length. I've only laid a little hedge before with much thinner stems
  15. Why do u think its beyond you when the are volunteers doing it ?
  16. Got a 90m hedge that needs laying in East Sussex. I'd like to tackle it myself but fear it's beyond me. Had one quote so far but wouldn't mind another one
  17. This afternoon it Was not a good idea to get out of MEWP basket to get last bit of ivy at the top I couldn't reach.
  18. They should be able to back probe the injector plug with a NOID light when running and check power to the injector is as it should be. You can't see power at the injector with a traditional volt meter.
