  1. Wot no massive trees that make me green with envy.
  2. On a moterway run to Gloucester i managed about 32-34 mpg, but i normally get 28-29 grubbing in the undergrowth. That is with a 300 tdi enginne
  3. Inject the stem, time comsuming but effective.
  4. It will give you an approx volume, that won't be to far out.
  5. Pie*D squared/40,000*L D= diameter L= Lenght The above formular will give you the volume.
  6. Glad to see you making your groundie work. Leave a fatter hindge next time and see if you can make him sweat. Well done by the way
  7. We want a lamb cam. We want a lamb cam. We want a lamb cam. We want a lamb cam.
  8. You will not be able to get enough tension in the rope/wire by hand, to be able to tension the rope properly, let alone with the addition weight of timber/ brash. You might with a couple of hand winches, but it will be painfully slow and hoplessly inefficient. If there is a footpath running through the site you will be able to get a compact tractor and winch in, that will be able to be removed from site each evening. Don't go making hard and tedious work harder than it has too. Somebody on here will have what you need or know somebody who has, that can be sub contracted in.

  11. Go with what you can afford. So long as the chain is sharp, the wood will be cut. Personally i prefere a table saw over a processer, mainly due to coast. However i may change my mind when i have processed 200 cube this summer.
  12. I spent three years doing utility tree clearance, ehich is why i said no.
  13. Personally no. The branches are not within the live zone.
  14. Here you go, i have just stumbled accross these: Log Carrier - Log Handling - More Products...
  15. Ask yourself this: if it was your children that were being brought fags and booze by a stranger, how would you feel ?
  16. Good work fella, i like the use of rigging to feed the chipper.
  17. Holy cow batman, do you think that it was home made ?
  18. Good work like that deserves a lunge to round things off nicely.
  19. The time lapse is good, well done. But where is the lunge ?
