Hi Dan thanks for your reply. The IBC cages seem a good idea but unless you can collect or buy more than I can take the delivery kills it I stacked a cord in an open stack building a stacked wall around and putting all the irregular shaped stuff in the centre. To be honest throwing it into a cage would be much faster. The reinforcing mesh seems to be the most cost effective way compared to other options. I was thinking of making it into a circular shape and welding it so it can’t open out then fixing it onto a pallet base.

Dry your eyes you fanny, if an alcoholic wants to drink then more the fool him. Don’t lecture anyone about mental health lad, you have serious issues of your own hence the Walt persona you adopt on here. Mr anonymous

I’ve know enough piss heads in my time to know what drink does to people. You said you had issues with alcoholism in the “ past” yet apparently you still drink. That’s a great idea.

I'm sure I've read on here some people are using stock fencing, if you're prepared to make a circle rather than square cornered rectangle then it doesn't need to be too strong. I've the same issue, only 10 ibcs but do have some more pallets.

I believe it's an ancient practice, evidence for bronze age fields in Cornwall and on Dartmoor. I guess it has to do with the local quality and quantity of stone too, not enough for dry stone walls but too much to leave in the middle of the field so banking up the boundaries makes sense.

That's the inside of the 942 on an Ag axle and just over £100k plus vat.

Cheers for that Dr Johnson. You genuinely don't know what you're talking about.

Suicide is the biggest killer of men under the age of 50 in the UK.

Bollocks

No, the symptom is drink.

The cause is the drink

What a load of shite

Utter shite. Are you suggesting that complete abstinence is the only way to manage an addiction? If so, you really do need to give your head a wobble. You treat the cause, not the effect.

What a tool. It is not Mark as such, it is your attitude to all mental health issues that is the problem here. To make fun of, to weaponise, to attack because of past problems. It is just the focus of your current abuse is Mark, but it could be any member who dares to open up that could be the target of your venom. It might be worth reiterating that male mental health is a silent killer, 'man up', 'say nothing' attitude which needs to change and then arses like you come along to poke fun of and to throw insults out at those who do open up. Makes everyone else clam up until you find them at the end of the rope and the repeated comment around the grave "if only they had told someone". Well, if the response they get is you is there any surprise that men don't?

Stihl also do a material cover for this filter, sure, it will impede airflow a bit but life is a compromise!

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

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.

I don’t know why I put that up really. It’s more of a fact than a joke!

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.

Have broken ribs 4 times before so know the drill, got to get worse before it gets better.

True how ever the were some that were very good at it , like foresters and tree surgeons ,

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.

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

Volunteers can do open heart surgery. Doesn’t mean they’re going to do a good job.
