  1. Past hour
  2. So sorry to read this, fella. There's nothing worse... Have you any photos of the stolen kit to put up ? -Also please think carefully, as you start to replace your kit, how you will successfully foil the almost inevitable nocturnal 'return visit' ? See recent thread on : 'Protecting my yard'

    I've made cider for about 10 years now, about 200-250 litres. I've thought about trying distilling, especially now that regulations are more relaxed but quite honestly I have too many hobbies as it is. An alternative to distilling is freezing the cider and decanting the alcohol which of course does not freeze and separates out. The Canadians call this Apple Jack I think. Again, never tried it.
  4. one I planted as an acorn
  5. Feelings running high this time. American crowds not covering themselves in glory, Rory getting a lot of stick. Hoping it goes to the wire.
  6. Husky 540mk3 with the rear handle. They're around the 600 quid and pro.grade and have quite lot of poke for a 40cc saw. Nice and light too.
  7. Today
  8. Caltech Team Sets Record with 6,100-Qubit Array WWW.CALTECH.EDU The neutral-atom platform shows promise for scaling up quantum computers.
  9. Yes, I'd second Doobin's comments-you could happily run 6-8' rotary blade/swipe on 26hp, for ride maintenance, but you'd seriously struggle to power a flail with that horse power.. Swinging cutting tips are common on most large rotary cutters, and generally better than flails, unless a fine finish is specified? Doobin: you're the first person I've ever seen mowing Giant Hogweed, with a tractor mower -what happened there ! 🤭
  10. Does anyone know if there's a way of setting up the Sthil Pro-Com units, if you won't (or rather, refuse to have ) a Google/Apple account, on your phone or computer ? I really want to buy some sets, for over a year now, but just don't want my data 'shared' with all those anonymous tech 'partners'.. 🙄

  12. I'd put money on it being Sorbus or one of those newfangled Aria/Torminalis efforts. No way it's Acer, Tilia or Betula

    Spikes

    Blunt spikes are dangerous and hard work. Sharpen them your self with a flat file on Buckinghams I just file two edges and remove the burr from the third edge.
  19. Yesterday
  20. Quality as always mate.
  21. I think that only leaves Jaqui from Pentangle.
  22. I dont think it has become a political hate forum at all. Yes some of the lounge threads can get a bit OTT at times but so what, Its the lounge section, ignore it if you must. The only way the forum can get back to the 'old days' of Arb/forestry/gear/woodwork talk if us as members move it in that direction by posting up new threads or resurrecting old ones. Forget the threads that annoy you, you wouldnt sit in a pub wasting your time listening to some shite on the next table if it didnt interest you. There are loads of members in here that are really helpful with vast amounts of knowledge, dont let a few posts/threads put you off.
  23. I've had one for 5 years and it still decent. Yes it has its teething problems but ive done some decent size trees and felt safe and comfortable
  24. I think that is Dyers Mazegill, non edible, but used for its dye, hence the name.
