look forward to the photo's mate, looks like it had quite a spread. Was it all rigged down or a bit of crash bang involved as well..?

[David Humphries]

Nice looking timber to work with.

 

Were you privy as to why it came down John ?

looks a fair old size John, why did it come down and i noticed you were using a big makita, what do you think? been looking at the top end makita for a while, look good.

Are farwells gonna saw that up too john?

[John Shutler]

sbtc. yeah 2/3rds crash and bang, rigged the stuff that was over the hedge and the stuff of the main gas line that runs through the new forest

 

monkeyd. yes i was, i was asked to deadwood and tidy upabout 6 months ago after a large limb failed over the next door neighbours drive. there was lots of damage on top of the main limbs which had obviously weekend them and finally 2 loverly ganno brackets on each side, they had put in a new drive 12 years ago which i dont think had helped

 

ictrees. yeah the big makita is great, easily runs a 28in bar(which its got at the moment), and find it realy nice to climb with

 

logologist. no i sold it to rob dyer, and he paid farwells to come pick it up and drop it at his place(god knows how much it cost as chris had to make 2 trips because he couldnt get it all on in 1 load)

[Log-ologist]

Robs a nut with that planker. But its his money.

 

do Soafs at cadnam still buy odd butts?

[John Shutler]

im not sure wether they do or not. doubt they would be interested in that though
