How very dare you i only burn logs. Does not help when all the past estate workers fix all fencing to trees. We felled a dead oak last year with the park fence in the middle of it:thumbdown:

We have all been here before but if you go to Norway that is all they burn softwood. Willow if dry is as good as any wood i should know i waste nothing. A friend of mine felled a large poplar and thought what am i going to do with it he sold a load to a customer and they phoned him up and said it was the best wood they had used and could they have another load:001_smile:

No idea but it comes off a 2m Bomford mower it used to move out to cut nearer trees or ditches but in the out position it was to heavy and kept breaking the welds. Bomford said it was a design fault and we should put the mower on a fixed A frame which it is now.
