  1. P.S. my number is 07966 792798
  2. Give me a ring tomorrow, i am going to be needing somebody in the near future on an ad hock basis. (Murray)
  3. I like the way the light reflects off the different grain patterns. Good work
  4. Browns woodworker. It cuts wood, and has not fallen apart.
  5. Nice moves, but they could have had the deciency for at least one to have fallen over.
  6. There be your answer.
  7. Can you alter the filling pitch ?
  8. When i first read it i thought you were asking for hedgehog quills. Just out of ignorance what are hedge quills ?
  9. When people stop ringing me up to cut down there Laylandii, and i am allowed to get into the woods to start felling. I will have a couple of hundred m3 for sale. I Will let you know in the New Year. P.S. it will mostly be Ash and Sycamore.
  10. I like that.
  11. I can not argue with that. One thing i forgot to mention was that if you don't want to strip the top soil, is making sure that you sow species such as Yellow rattle that are grass parasites which help to slow the grass down. Or the other way is to mow in late August and remove all the cut grass as this will help break the cycle of nutrient repalcement. If the councils did this then they would have mow the verges alot less and save a fair bit of money.
  12. When you arm has the outline of a naked plump lady.
  13. The only reason i sugest to remove the fertile top soil is for the long term picture. As a general rule most native flowering plants that are found in grassland do not do well in the long term as they can not compete with the more aggressive grasses. Remove the nutrient rich top soil and the flowers and the grasses can compete on a level playing field.
  14. Cutter mutters gloves are very good. Cutter Work Gloves - Home
  15. Would love to but i am already having Laylandii fun with Timtree81 on that wednesday. I am free on Friday the 2nd of December
  16. If you want wild flower you will have to remove the fertile top soil, as they won't be able to compete with that very healthy grass. You definitely need an orchard on there, and a few pigs.
  17. Just finnished 'the boy with the cuckoo clock heart', and i can not decide wether i like it or not. Very odd
  18. That hollow tree is amazing.
  19. If they are not prepared to pay for the work, then let some other fool kill themselves for peanuts.
  20. Photos photos photos
  21. Somewhere about the 5- 51/2 m3
  22. Getting back on track ladies. Rule of thumb: Is the house on clay soil, most but not all problems are caused by clay soils srinking and expanding. Trees near by will increase this because of there uptake of water. The foundations from most modern houses are deep and solid enough not to effected by tree roots. The tips of tree rrots a fragile things. Therefore are not strong enough to push through soild foundations. However with older houses (80 years plus) the foundations tend to be not too solid and therefore have gaps which can allow root entry. Once roots gain entry they can excert forces up to 5 tons. Therefore if the house is modern and not on clay soils then there is an unlikely chance theat the tree is causing subsidence. However i am not a qualified engineer, if in doubt seek out an expert.
  23. And what is the soil type ?
  24. How old is the house in question ?
