100 euros folding money? Stuart

How much are you a day normally? I take it you didn't climb but cut from the tractor nacelle? Stuart
-
Are you working for a British client? Also, are you fairly new to tree work or self employment? Stuart

This is a common sight in France, to see older chippers pre 2012 type conformity rolling on ungainly looking trailer chassis. Stuart

How many branches go into 1 m3 of wood chips?
Ty Korrigan replied to Karin's question in Homeowners Tree Advice Forum
Hello, just a thought. Here in France we prune our stone fruits right after fruiting. If you prune now, surely you will lose the bulk of your flower buds? Regards Stuart -

I'm a little bit mad right and keep records of chip produced in a wee black book. I established a while back that your average domestic conifer hedge when measured for it's standing volume, chips down 8-10 fold. So 8m3 of standing hedge becomes 1m3 of chip. Stuart -

He keeps accurate mental records as he was feeding Gloria and counted each miserable one as they went through her. When feeding a CS100 you remember each branch that thwacked your chops, smacked you fingers or just wouldn't, wouldn't go through. Stuart -
I'm teasing, on my 5th GM machine. Stuart

Ty Korrigan replied to Karin's question in Homeowners Tree Advice Forum
We'd be interested in images of almond trees being pruned. Before and after images. Is it a pro fruit tree specialist doing the work? Pruning for fructification is an art. 99.9% of tree surgeons cannot prune a fruit tree correctly. They either make it nice and round so the client thinks it looks pretty or take off so many branches it reacts with a profusion of vertical fruitless shoots. Stuart -
Ah... Got it Greenmech have decided to make a 'reliable' chipper! Stuart?

Ah, that is a shame. Always very sad when businesses fold. Emotionally, I'm over my own 'liquidation' as the French call it. It was a vile period to live through. Never known such anxiety and mental pain. However, it is all in the past and I even got a risible payout at the end of it all once the land and building, trucks and chippers etc had all been sold off. Locals still refer to me as 'Le Jardinier Anglais' and I don't see 'Le Perfidious French Git' around at all and I've lost the desire to 'liquidate' him too... Stuart

Gasification engined chipper. Powered by what it chips straight into a wee furnace. PeteB told me about 11:30 last night. Mind you, he was with the drink again... Stuart

I might be mistaken. Have they gone into liquidation? Stuart
-
Or hardnosed women in bars. Stuart

Will he do it for the wood...? Stuart

How much is a tomography test in the UK? Stuart

I was wondering about a hand ascender. What think members if this parish? Stuart

Got to be weather proof because it will be hung on the side facing south. Stuart

Hello, I have an Ifor tipper stored on a local farm. Considering a solar trickle charger suitable for outside use. One I can hang on the trailer. Does anyone have experience of these? Stuart

Lol! Woodstar brand, generic Chinesium tophandle €69 from Bricodepot (B&Q) The 150 was running rough, my fault as I forgot to clean it after a dusty hedge job. The wee Echo 2511 stopped oiling 'again' so out with the reserve reserve saw which lives under the rear bench seat. Similar power as a 150 for the weight of a 200 but it fires up with a couple of pulls after weeks of not being used. Should see if I can run a 1/4 chain on it. Similar here but without the Oregon guide bar and chain. https://www.oogarden.com/prod-37797-Tronconneuse-Oregon-25-25.html?utm_source=comparateur&utm_medium=googleshopping&utm_campaign=googleshopping&gclid=CjwKCAiA3uDwBRBFEiwA1VsajEgpZ1ioFmfH_K7eBV50O_ApPBO6NEdQagonC671wfEVdVqKh6gBmRoCJwwQAvD_BwE Tiny fillers, I use a wee funnel for the fuel. Loads of them out there, some with cheesy names like 'Racing' Stuart

Send up 'The Hook'! I love it! With added Petzl micrograb. This was me, Wednesday, skylarking between 2 Ent like horse chesnuts. About €120 more in France than UK though. I used to use a homemade grappling hook but realise now that too many hooks spoil the cross...ing. That one was forever getting stuck or damaging bark. Mrs Lee frowned when she saw it appear on the invoice but soon smiled and laughed at my first ungainly transfer between snaggly pines. Stuart

Even with a clean tank and the oil nozzle wiped clean every fill the filter blocked. Perhaps Aspen itself contains particles? Only my 2511 suffers of all the saws. My climbers 2511 bought from the same store at the same time gets fed cheap mineral oil and gets very much more use than my saws occasional outing, yet does not block. Anyway, filter off so we shall see how it runs over the next few weeks. Stuart

Being as you are, in the Emerald Isle, have you been to the pub with it and got so lashed they drove you home in it? Just asking, not stereotyping or anything...lol! Stuart

Spud? Do you know? Stuart
