    Showing on mine ( android tablet) maybe yr old stone tablet needs an upgrade? K

    I like climbing them, and a bit of silky work to thin out laterals so they dont clump up with needles or snow makes all the difference, pity it often gets left till its too late. K

    More context needed really - but over extending branches are a noticable problem, thankfully a thin or tip prune can make a lot of difference. K

    Only if there is a target underneath them. K

    Am not holding it against you Mr Stubby not when we are of a certain age. K

    That. Dont like them planted, as a rule - they just grow into bother. Reduced scores of them to little effect. Fell and put a Cherry in. K

    Surface grinder - there is about a ton and a half weight difference. No one should use a bench grinder to sharpen chipper knives ( at least not my knives ! ) K

    Also, a big factor will be if yr a 'stayer' and loyal to that company. Plenty o lads bugger off after collecting a wad of certificates. K

    Usually its a surface grinder with a jig to hold the blades at correct angles, used one at one company - bloody old thing with hand feed, a tedious job at best. Hard white grit stones. K

    In one, plus Witness Protection on the way fr that Pine 😁 K

    @Finnian Hazlewood good CV , I would add, you have good organisational skills, to that and possibly add a pic of yrself and a job you were doing - plus get online and look at pruning techniques ( even just handsaws ) and other revelant disease or damage in trees to boost yr background knowledge . It all helps to make it stand out ( and doesnt cost ! ) . K

    Buy an imperial socket set and then buy that chipper dempsey, they are solid. K ( 3/4 = 19mm 15/16=24mm but you knew that)
  25. Khriss
    Pair of new blades in the price, to be safe. K
