A few photos of our woods

[John Hughes]

I have not been able to get to our woods for many months now so I have started to look at a few photos and thought I would post a few here.

 

 

 

This is my main tractor, a Ford 2120 with front loader. Perhaps a little small for pulling the Farma trailer but it does a good job as long as I don't put to much weight on the trailer.

 

The Palax on an old international 574. I managed to ruin the blade last time I used it by cutting my log grab in half:thumbdown:

My baby Zetor it's own little shed

 

 

Farma trailer. How did I ever manage without it?

Nice set up there, and looks as though its well away from prying eyes.

That looks like a nice setup you have there, how big are your woods and do you produce all the wood that you mill?

[John Hughes]

This wood is 20 acres and we have a further 40 acres about 5 miles away.

I mill the larger spruce and try and buy in any oak that I hear the local farmers have.

The woods are nicely out of the way, we do get the local shoot over them a couple of times a year , but no dog walkers.

I am supposed to be clear felling about an acre a year ,replanting with hardwood but I am falling behind schedule. No matter the trees are still growing.

I used to go down and spend a week about every 6 weeks playing there but now my wife is ill I can't get away.
