a little bit of nokka-ing

[Joy Yeomans]

well we finally decided to re-wire the whole nokka, as we found the problem -over winter the blue wire had faded changed colour to green and broke off in the wiring loom which really confused the lads trying to get the motors to work after they refubed it. so they ended up re wiring it in half a day and doing a proper job instead of a bodge:001_tt2: just in case the other wires decided to break up half way through our softwood contract.

 

this weeks narrow clearfell along a track of sitka spruce mostly, a narrow path between ride and brook.

aye, never mind that were in to the 21st century weve only just entered the 20th century:blushing: , speeds up snedding, but Rohans had to get the whip out to the lads to fell quicker as hes catching em up:lol:

 

brashing moved to windrows with crane, then we'll bring our digger in and burn with the brash rake.

 

cheers
