  1. Wonder if using engineers cutting oil as chain lube, cheap and water based so will cool bars better than veg based oil, try differnt mixes- think Oregons version of it was 5 water to 1 oil , but you will stink after running it ๐Ÿ˜ฌ K
  2. Well Matthecks research was quite extensive, however i condemned a line of Lombardys couple years ago, well beyond the limit t/R 30% of decay and annoyingly the buggers are still standing, but wont be parking my car under them. Case by case will always throw up exceptions and Mattheck himself told me any tree within strike distance of a Rail line should be felled ๐Ÿ˜ฎ so what do you do ๐Ÿ˜ฏ K
  3. To be fair to Matthecks work and others, his data did see failures outside the guide t/r , so by averaging its a sound guide, but quite literally can fall down on individual trees. K
  4. Would actually argee there yon chippy, Ash could be problematic with decay. But then its also whats to hand ๐Ÿ˜ K
  5. With you at the helm ๐Ÿ˜‹ K

  13. If yr worried abt the quality of material given to you, there is a body that assesses that. All providers of training have to meet a quality standard. K
  14. It would possibly get you a PTI qualification, which is a leg up in Treeworld. But not much else. K
