  1. Dry Yew is incredible, burns mega hot and burns for longer than most other timbers, plus it looks real nice in the log basket!! Not bad for a softwood
  2. When you you post on a forum you are asking the opinion of all the members
  3. I think it was a "Logosol". I guess this is why chainsaw mills are known as "Alaskans"
  4. There are tracked cherry pickers that will get into some very tight spots, fitting through 3ft gates with ease.
  5. Don't worry she never will be.
  6. I think I may have recut a few after you

  8. Not sure I would worry to much, I've been using saws and chippers for 20+years, I pretty much always used ear defenders and my hearing is excellent. I live with my wife and four children, but its generally me that hear the bell or someone phone ringing at the other end of the house. I also listen to the radio inside my earmuffs, I wonder if this helps ward off tinnitus as your ear is picking out the sound rather than just hearing a continual noise, even through its muffled.
  9. HUGE difference between defending yourself and your property with force and theses entrusted with overseeing the incarceration of those convicted being allowed to dish out hidings as they see fit, IMO.
  10. Surely that would make them no better than those over whom they are custodians and its unlikely encourage the offenders to change their ways
  11. Why should people need any other reason than not wanting to cause misery to others and a desire for self-respect?
  12. "Pollarding" large limbs rather than removing back to collar has been considered good practice for a long time by many. We have all seen huge cavities where large limbs have been removed, far better to have the decay in a large "peg" than into the stem. I'm not sure the size of this limb justifies this though.
  13. Its now a auction, not a "buy it know", pretty sure it will not be allowed to end unless it gets up near the old price.
  14. Don't think so mercedes unimog U20 Arb Truck | eBay
  15. He who pays the piper names the tune.
  16. Yep, they are a pain and they are generally just that bit to big to pull out when you spot them:thumbdown:
