I was on holiday in Slovakia a couple of weeks ago. We visited a outdoor forest museum with its own narrow gauge railway. It was a pine and fir woodland and the weather was humid, so there was loads of fungus out. While we would be walking along a path with the wife, I would disappear to take another photo. So here is a selection of what I saw and if you want to identify them that would be good.

Thank you, it looks really easy and going to give it a try.

So Peckerwoo, whats happening to June and the so called summer?

Do you always keep your nails as nice as that? Where did you get them done? lol Nice work though, I have an apple burr that I would like to try and make a kuska, but how do you start?

Wear something with a hood so you don't get a load of dirt down your back.

I have been fpitting my water bottle in the freezer the night before. Not only do I get to drink nice iced water for most of the day it also keeps my lunch bag cool.

Was asked today if it was possible to relocate a Japanese Maple about 15 years in age? It is a well established tree and the owners are moving and they want to take the tree with them. The owner also asked if it was possible to strike a cutting from it and grow it on, this would be cheaper than taking the whole tree. Any suggestions?

Not really private grounds, just right next to the motorway. -

I don't think the one I spotted will disappear quickly! -

Spotted one of them just today, but it is a tad far from Hampshire. Its on an oak at the side of the A1 going north bound just past Wetherby, Yorkshire. -
Done, nice trailer!

That is just fantastic work. I really like the 3 seater as well as the recliner. O to have the time to even attempt something like this.
-
Spot the difference.

Honestly its Lebonese Ceder, the legs are oak and I got the oak from a tree that I cut down myself. I will put what I have left of the ceder on top of an oak log that I have.
-
This is what have done with the Ceder, made it a table. I am putting Superior Danish oil on it but could I also wax it?

Just had a look at your blogspot Baggy. I didn't realise how big some of the kuskas were until I saw your hand in some of the pictures. Also it sounds so idillic just sitting under a tree and playing with your wood all day! snigger, snigger.

Spotted this in-between the rails of a track just outside the workshops of Tanfield Railway near Beamish, County Durham. What could be feeding it? Coal dust?
-
Steve, can you tell me if my company was to get in contact with Arbtalk, would you have to disclose any threads on certain topics that they ask for to use as evidence?

The one mill that I have been told about can't do anything smaller than 6ft because of the clamps. That according to my boss who has taken wood there before.
-
I suppose that would help. Will take photos and get the tape measre out. I reckon that the largest bit is about 4ft long and about 30cm in diameter, the other 2 are a bit smaller but not by that much.

I managed to get 3 nice bits of straight cherry and I want to do something with them instead of just turning it into fire wood. My biggest problem is getting it milled. It isn't long enough to take to the local mill at Martin-cum-Grafton near Boroughbridge to get it done. I think if I was to do it with the chainsaw I would loose quite a bit of it through waste. So does anyone in West or North Yorkshire have a work shop that has a saw big enough to deal with the wood to get it milled? Or would be willing to give me time or even a cost to do it? Thanks yet again.
