This looks like a comfy way to climb trees.
Lancstree replied to David Goss's topic in Climbers talk
Looks like you need them sock-wellies to slot into the lower device. They should invent some proper comfy spikes instead -
Sounds like it could be a fig.

Woke up aching today so it is a good exercise. Doing pressups this way is less boring too
-
Good size window for such a small stove then. Nice
-
What make of stove is that Hodge?
-
Did 12:5. Could have squeezed a few more but didn't want to push it. Very good exercise that.

Palms down is too painful for me. My wrists are shot but I'll give it a try on the knuckles.

Strange looking Copper Beech

woops I meant cut leaved beech -
Dead pop branches dry extremely well on the tree and burn a treat. They get the fire going hot and ready for other wood. Same with willow but I think pop is a bit better

There is CAFRE that have campuses in Enniskellen, Greenmount and Loughry and they seem to do everything but arb.

Not sure if this is helpful but there is a hetas guide to stove efficiencies. http://www.hetas.co.uk/02_Hetas%20Guide%2014_Part_1_Appliances_060607.pdf I don't know what the test conditions were but they all came out around the same. Clearview 500 seemed poor compared to the rest but I'm not sure how. They also claim that its a wood burner only but this isn't correct as its multifuel

Are there any agricultural colleges in NI that offer courses in arb and forestry? I googled it but couldn't find any. Asking on behalf of a cousin who wants to get into the industry. Cheers

I've got a clearview and would recommend it. A fitter told me that Euroheat are leading the market now with the technology.

I'd love one because I suffer from poor circulation in the hands. Time to get some winter gloves purchased

Want something mellow? Have a listen to Nils Landgren on spotify.spotify:track:76tRTTlzkNhQ7QLTeHaipg Does that link work?

To make space in my back yard wood store I've moved a half of the seasoned wood into my next door neighbours' bin storage area. This is an old terraced house that has one of those bin holes which has a little wooden door that can be accessed from the alley. I'm just a bit unsure if the wood will absorb any dampness as there is virtually no light and the bricks seem a little bit damp. There doesn't seem to be any water getting in so I'm assuming that its just condensation build up or something. On the inside of the store you can see the original wooden roof but there is asbestos on top of that now. I once put some willow in there that was a bit wet and it soon started growing fungus on it but I'm hoping that dry wood will stay dry... Does anyone else use this type of thing for storing wood?

Looks good. Pity I can't go as it would be nice to get ideas for our woodland festival
-
Thanks. So about a year at about £10 per clutch. That's not bad

Double choking a cambium saver is fine if it is long enough to do so. Not sure what you mean by using two cambium savers though. Do you mean joined somehow to increase the length? If so I wouldn't, as there are plenty on the market that are fit for that purpose.
-
The DPM stuff seems good but it doesn't half snag stubble!
-
Rather than leaving pegs which could be a hazard, I would rather use an adjustable friction saving device that you choke around the spar allowing you to descend then easily ascend. An example would be a ropeguide or a cheaper alternative. I've yet to set one up for myself.

I've heard from a mate in the TA that there's going to be a lot new stuff hitting the army surplus scene since the MOD are changing all their gear into a universal type to save money.
