I thought it was something to do with the oil because when it warms up it stops.

I HAVE GOT TWO WOODBURNERS in my house and it is roasting aswell they heat up the bricks in the chimneys and heat the bedrooms upstairs as the only woodman on a 6000 acre estate i get plenty of wood and pick the best. did you carve and make those things yourself? they are very good.
-
I like the oil drum woodburner, thats got me thinking i could make one like that at the woodyard to keep me warm when working there on wet or cold days.

Are you trying to catch up to steve as the top poster you need a few more good threads to get your fingers going.

I am not trying to be an alarmist it might of been it might not who knows. All i am saying is if we are given advise we should think on it,i am only human i do things i shoul not do but i try to think about the whole picture and make the right choice:001_smile:
-
i also agree if i remember amicide used to say drill holes in the stumps fill with amicide and cover with stones,just a shame for the spiders.

Yes so the farm manager has just told me i think he said july i will have to check and post:001_smile:

It is not so much being prosecuted it is about you as a person if you know something is wrong do you go ahead and do it or not, for example would you fell a tree with birds nesting or bats roosting or dig up a stump with red data list lichen on it,i hope not the same with chemicles if we are told not to use we should have the sense to comply.A friend of mine a farm labourer who sprayed burnt the inside of his nose and lost his sense of smell then he had cancer of the bowel, then lungs then spine then he died aged 54 one month before a dream holiday to australia. we all do some things we should not but we should think hard on the advise given.

The forester is running out of things to use, as said must not use diesel atrazine and simazine gone, faramon brush wood killer gone and in the chemicle store i have a box of kerb granules now also not to be used that leaves glyphosate or a few more that don't work, mind you 6 years ago i phoned the forestry commission to ask what they used and they said round-up for all jobs:001_smile:
-
Forgive me if this has been said but for glyphosate mix it up in a large jar and when you fell your tree or elder paint it on with a paint brush to the fresh cut, no more regrowth and no spraying everywhere. As i work for a large estate i would not use amcide anymore i have to keep tight records of everything i use amouts ect and the HSE checks the store:001_smile:

I need to get a digi camara first steve it's on my christmas list:001_smile:
-
Yes i like it i also got the mini mill to go with it but i have not had time to put the rails on a piese of wood for it to run along a wet day job. My plants came today so i started planting good day for it as mild as this them roots should setle in before winter.
-
.No you are never to old to learn anything apart from i think i am to old to start climbing
-
It would be a good machine to take into the woods on a tractor, everything you cut down is money. Mr ed i have a jappa firewood processer with 4 way knife and i was wondering could you make a grile to go in front of this to make kindling would this be possible?
