Looking for some cutting in Dorset or Somerset if anyone knows of any please..

Thanks so much that's great news , I wanted a resurface but they don't do them down here (Dorset) any more . I'll probably end having them both done at some point , but the left is proper knackered ...I will be happy if I can do a few little climbs, no all day jobbies . Thanks again you've made my day , I was a bit down in the mouth about it all today

Anyone had a hip replacement , and still climb ? I'm due for one in a few months due to impingement , doc recons it will be out of the question . Not climbing full time any more anyway but really would miss it ... plus i just bought a new rope at the arb show.

Need a tip site next week if anyone could help please. Approx 20 ton of good old conifer . Cheers

Milled the main stem today , no cracking at all . Think it could have been some over zealous wedging . Got out some really nice planks , I'm hooked

One piece at 2m long pretty much split in half . Ive got the main stem to do tomorrow just don't want to make a load of firewood .

Pretty new to milling , but landed a common walnut job for this week . Milled a couple of pieces at 2.5 inches thick which cracked almost straight away . Is this normal for walnut ? Should it be milled thicker to avoid this ?

Forwarder driver wanted for south west . Covering Dorset , Somerset , Wiltshire and Hampshire . FMOC a must , cs 30 and cs31 an advantage .Please phone Jack on 07837646033.

Thanks , that's what I wanted to hear . I may strim or spray round each plant , the light level will decrease as the new stools grow anyway ! Cheers everyone GRAZON!!

Thanks for the replies, we are planning to plant hazel to coppice about a acre a year . Its a seven acre wood which is predominately ash , so its ideal for growing a coppice crop but also ideal for nettles and brambles . I'm just concerned about the competition on the new plants .

I have strimmed the tops off along the paths , the remainder is so dense that I needs some control . Cheers

After some advice on spraying nettles in woodland please . Is there a selective herbicide that just kills nettles ? I don't want to use glyphosate and total everything .

Anyone know a good wildflower seed suplier ? been searching the web which is just confusing me . Doing approx 50 m2 to start with.

We put in a planning application for a barn, the nice man came out for a site inspection. Next week we had a letter asking us to remove all our wood as it was not arisings from the land,and the barn was out of the question.So we used a privateer planning chap to scrap it out with the LA , no luck on the barn yet but we can keep our wood .
