Cat got your tongue, boy? You're suddenly quite shy?

Would be a real shame if your photoshop was wrong JohnsonD, half an ear on the news, more than 9 arrested. But who are we to argue with linkedin, or 'blokedownthepubsays' website. ... and not forgetting your group of sober racists also managed to assault 26 police officers enough to injure them notably ... and of course Nottinghill has over 20 times the number of participants so a direct comparison as above is misleading ... but who are we to argue, facts over linkedin.

Very rare in the UK, short dippers. Everyone is mad on max dig depth for some reason but it’s just not needed most of the time and has a negative effect on everything you do with the digger out of the ground.

Ive used an M7 for a lot of years. The F2+ is clearly a huge step forward in design. I cant look past Logosols robust design and beatability. If you're buying a chainsaw based mill you're signing up for milling fenceposts and 6", 8" and 10" posts. Unless you're a masochist and you can mill slabs too. My advice would be to but a second hand Bandsaw mill.

Yeeeeessssssss...That's what I said.

Do they take from cuttings? Tempted to coppice it this year as it's been a mast year so unlikely to crop heavily next year

The point of the branch logger is that it processes stuff too small to split. That said, a lot of it splits naturally when going through. Soon be stove weather so will be burning a lot of it

Having owned my B751 for over 5 years now I really appreciate the "over engineered" aspect of Logosol. Ive beat the living sheet outta my mill since Ive owned it and it keeps coming back for more. Every aspect of fine tuning is accounted for in the engineering process. I could be wrong but are you having issues with the roller guides? They have a 4 way adjustment but need a longitudal adjustment to keep the "set" teeth away from the roller bearings. If you've not set the longitudal depth right you'll not only snap bands due to stress cracks forming in the gullet but you'll flatten the upward facing teeth causing you to (most likely dive) or maybe rise in the cut. Todays remote milling.

Funny you should mention the creeper. Which I planted, but " it gotta go!", since it is in through the shed everywhere.!!!!!!!!! It and the one I planted at the other end are near about to meet in the middle of the 4 bays. It seems to love the subdued light from the skylights.

STIHL has introduced a new charging management system designed to make charging multiple batteries more efficient, reliable and user-friendly. The STIHL CM 8 Charging Management System allows up to 8 chargers to be powered via a standard GB 230 V Socket. This enables twice as many chargers to run on a single fuse, providing a simple solution to maximise charging capacity and manage batteries more productively. With no electrical expertise required for set-up, the CM 8 has been designed with intelligent overload protection, ensuring safe and reliable charging without the risk of fuse tripping when used with the correct STIHL charger combination. . The innovative system can run twice the number of chargers compared to a standard socket, thanks to smart electronics developed by STIHL experts. Built with an intelligent automatic switch, the CM 8 enables two charging banks to run one after another. This means that once the system’s ‘bank one’ has fully charged all of the batteries in its connected chargers, ‘bank two’ will automatically begin its charging process. A light on the CM 8 clearly indicates which bank is active for instant visibility and peace of mind. To avoid overloading a circuit, the CM 8’s maximum power consumption of 1840 W must not be exceeded. With this, STIHL’s wide range of chargers have a label to indicate wattage, with this information also available to access on the STIHL website. The wattage combination of all chargers plugged into the CM 8 must not exceed the 1840 W maximum limit. Utilising the CM 8 with 8 x AL 301-4 multi chargers, 32 batteries can be charged overnight via one plug socket.

As the operations of family-run arb firm Koala Tree Care have grown, as has their relationship with GreenMech – with two efficient and easy-to-maintain woodchippers working hard on jobs across North Somerset. The most recent addition to their fleet is the turntable Eco 135TT which, running alongside a gravity-fed CS100, provides an economical and safe solution to domestic tree work. Callum Emery founded Koala Tree Care in 2019 and, with the assistance of twin brother Aaron, provide a one-stop shop for all aspects of tree, hedge and general garden maintenance to customers in and around Bristol. With client demand increasing, the business quickly outgrew its small initial chipper and needed equipment that could keep pace with their growth. Their first upgrade was to a compact, yet capable, CS100 from GreenMech. Ideal for working in tight spaces such as residential gardens, the CS100 offers the quick processing of branches and brash of up to 4”. But with workload still on the rise, the time was right to add an even bigger machine to their fleet in the form of the Eco 135TT. “Our GreenMech machines have made a massive difference to our workflow” comments Callum. “While the CS100 is still used frequently because of its ability to be wheeled through a house where no external access is available, the investment in the Eco 135TT makes light work of larger jobs. The turntable is such a useful feature – this machine is used most days and is rarely ever used in the straight position! We can alter the chipper to any angle for safe and convenient feeding, and ensure the chippings cleanly make their way into the truck.” Another thing Callum praises is the ease of maintenance. “Looking after both of these machines is incredibly simple. The Eco 135TT features their disc-blade chipping system which enables me to turn the blade three times before the need to resharpen – which I can also do myself with GreenMech’s disc blade sharpener. This means we can keep downtime to a minimum and keep our busy diary on schedule.” Processing large and heavy branches with ease, it isn’t just the performance of the ECO 135TT that has impressed the brothers – the service from local GA Groundcare has also been ranked as first rate. “Everything with the purchase and the delivery of the machine in May was really simple.” He adds, “The team at GA, especially Matt Textor and Ashley Stevens, go above and beyond to make sure we’re getting the most out of our machines and are quick to answer any queries or questions we might have.” For more information on the cost-effective Eco woodchipper series, visit www.greenmech.co.uk -
saw them quite a few times, always a great show,Alex would get very drunk, often adding to the theatrics, always a packed house, audience members would dress similar to Alex,,, Zal,, not so much I saw Zal with Nazareth too, and then again with Elkie Brooks, I believe he went on to play in many guises and tours but never saw him after that. someone said he was living in Spain, and they spoke briefly with him. imo SAHB were never the same without Alex, and the same can be said about Zal.

Unfortunately no proof. Timber long gone, he stole it for a specific job. Has his own woodland and hates people walking through but has no problem with cutting gate chains at others and stealing timber. I've passed his name onto the new owner who owns large ground work machinery capable of digging holes big enough for hardtop Landrover 110's!

I disagree, it is a biggy. It was a lie, a big lie and meant to cause racist outrage.

Love the blue resin boards. Something I'm hoping to experiment with in the next year. Where do the swirl effects come from?
