    Yep, a bumper crop for all tree fruits here in the NW -though I was expecting less/smaller fruit, given the very dry summer period . Sweet Chestnuts gathered this week. Apple store and new freezer are chocca block. Evidevidently there was sufficient winter rainfall to make no difference to yields. Has anyone here ever experimented with making Calvados/distilling cider ? Just asking for a friend, obviously... 🤔

    Feelings running high this time. American crowds not covering themselves in glory, Rory getting a lot of stick. Hoping it goes to the wire.

    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.

    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 ! 🤭

    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'.. 🙄

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

    Check with Lantra or NPTC providers, sometimes they include crane work as part of their specialist courses.

    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.

    Dont forget to register your gear on Steves Security Verification ARBSAFE.CO.UK If you scroll down it shows that kit has been recovered.

    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.

    I think that is Dyers Mazegill, non edible, but used for its dye, hence the name.
