Been asked to supply logs for milling into boat props. They asked me if treated Spruce would suffice instead of Oak or Redwood but I'm sceptical. I've assumed dry dock obviously, quayside.. Any ideas? Got plenty of mac and pine in stock.

yes, my vitara can tow 1.2 tonnes with overrun brakes but because you should not tow an unbraked trailer that is more than half the unladen weight of the tow car. So an unbraked chipper of 750kg is too much.

What’s this interesting material coming out of my stove?

Looks like it was pruned very heavily about 4yrs back and sent up a load of growth then has not being touched since. Id thin out that growth back to the same prune points and then also shorten some of the the longer ones. Also it a bit all on top and bare at the sides so leave some stuff to full out the sides

Oh I completely agree, seens the police are useless , however in this day and age you will get someone stab u in the back by filming it... the stuff you could get away with you cant and because the police are biased - ie all this so called mental health shit, or they came from a bad home etc means that the police are geared up to protect the criminal, including the justice system and prisons...there the worst as the moj are so scared to be sued by a prisoner that they will bend over backwards for them. Nothing will change until u get rid of the human rights shite. Maybe then il happily get involved but unless my life's in danger , I couldnt be bothered .

Hi I’ve been looking for a little mini digger for a while now, a neighbour is selling a 2008 Kubota KX 41 3V for not a lot of money. Straight enough machine with a good cab and sharp responsive hydraulics. It’s not gonna be used commercially rather a bit of landscaping, Foundations and general work around the property, just wondering if anyone had used one or had any experiences good or bad. Cheers

Morning all, Hopefully finishing last week’s job off if rain not too bad. I was never the best at branch walking, and pruning beech in the wet is not my greatest ability. Have a good week

Any chance of getting mine on too? Name is Duncan Currie...

Lovely day here, saw a brimstone and a peacock butterfly on the dog walk.

Anyway I have tried to explain to him that 40" diameter lumps of stem will not go through a 6" chipper. Yes they can be cut smaller to be liftable and movable, but thats not what a 6" chipper is for. Grass muddy slope up to driveway, muddy trail down into woodland/swamp.

Sorry, missed the unidirectional part. No, I use standard pulleys, sometimes with multiple sheaves depending on the situation. I can’t honestly remember working with anyone using Unidirectional ones.

Trip out into Oslo today. Needed to get some new snowboard boots so decided to get the ferry into the city and take the dog for a bit of a training trip. She was pretty good and chilled for the most part.

Can we talk about underrated bands in this thread too? Idlewild are excellent (and I think pretty well known) but don’t show the signs of conventional success. I’ve got YouTube videos with more views than them. Mick Dempsey has more followers on instagram. Make it make sense. I’d have given a kidney to be at the Iona show.

I would suggest that this is an issue/ It looks like the glue that seals the welch plug is failing. You could try using some super glue to reseal it but you need to dry and degrease it and use the glue very sparingly so it doesn't seep down inside the plug. Something like thick gorilla glue is good. I've tried this bodge on a few plugs and it seems to have worked.

The deal was that they got proper stuff in but alas, it is tip site! One that had various chip truck, 4x4 and trailers dump and go.

Risk of heave cherry tree removal?
Peter 1955 replied to tree removing sad man's question in Homeowners Tree Advice Forum
I always hate Willow. Previous tenants next door planted one nearly ten yards from the foul water sanitary pipes serving our bungalows, only a few years ago. I was surprised to find that it had got in there, and was causing a blockage. Our landlady was not amused. The tree's not there any more. Our flowering cherry, which was here when we arrived, has never been an issue in over forty years.
