Buying a splitter from marketplace without seeing it?
shillo replied to shillo's topic in Firewood forum
tis nice isn't it! the other binderberger is the older version, it Hasnt got the slopey bits for dragging back bits for re splitting. there was also a splitmaster on there the other day, but I dont think my tractor would lift it, it will drive it. ive got an old 57hp case. -

Would you do it? Looking at a splitter in birmingham which is miles away from me in Devon. its over 7k with transport. owner has made a bit of effort to provide transport quotes but didn't seam keen to send new photos or a video of it working. is there a 'safe' way to transfer funds/receive splitter without risk to both parties? should I just leave it?

Anybody?
-
Anybody got one? opinions?
-
Nice. How did you fix bits together
-
Yes I hear what you are saying about the thieves but I am more interested in making my life easier by being able to see. I would like to set ups own system but that would take me forever once i go down every wormhole on the web.

thanks for that I will have a look

Anybody got ant recommendations on some decent solar lights to light up the yard? not just for security but also to see stuff.

Any opinions on these two, ive been looking for a second hand one for ages now both these have turned up. the binderberger is a bit newer but same money

Non deciduous trees turn brown then back to green again.
shillo replied to Marc Lewis's topic in Tree health care
fairly common down here too. usually salt laden winds, usually one side of tree only. I did have a big macrocarpa turn totally brown last year in the summer I thought it had died but it greened up again after some rain. -
It does look like its been topped, squirrels have chewed the regrowth by the looks of it.

Just had the a price back... £65 for 2 bits of plastic.... fuming. Apparently not meant to be using grease to lubricate slides dry lube or oil.
-
Anyone had this happen to their splitter? It looks like ive got to take the splitter to bits to get new guide in.

50 squirrels in one wood... ive only shot one squirrel in 50 years! too clever for me!

so if the ash is alkaline I dont really want to add it to the composted wood chip for the rhodos?
-
I just use 70/80 litre pots that trees come in, one for climbing kit. one for lowering rope, one for bollard.
-
Ive basically been asked to plant up an area with white, scented rhodos, but after a little exploratory dig the ground is pure shillet, so my plan was simply to cover the area in composted wood chip (at least 5yr old) to a depth of 100mm ish then plant up probably using a bag of ericaceous compost per plant. Any body recommend a ph meter/tester?
-
Would anybody have an idea whether it would be a good idea to plant ericaceous loving rhodos into very old, well composted wood chip?
