    I got one that needs a new rim welding on. Shame that you are at the other end of the country, as it is surplus to requirements.

    Why bother, if the saw is sharp you don't need them.

    The acre coope took 2 1/2 days to do with 2 men. All we used was the brash that would have been burnt, and that normally takes a couple of days to do. The dead hedge does not have to be tightly laid and it does not matter if there are small holes. So long as the gaps are too small for the deer to fit through you are fine.

    That will be the one, cheers Dave

    Todays fun and games. The Monkey Puzzle was pollarded ? two years ago, leaving two live growth points. These has since died. Customer wanted it reducing by half. I managed to get to about 30' before i bottled it, even with the tree guide out it still had an alarming wobble/ lurch. So i felled it instead. The first 15' is solid, so i am going back with the logster chainsaw mill. On one side was a new 20k conservatory, and the other was the owners office, so good potential for a big insurance claim.

    I found the birch boletus at my mother this (last) summer, first pic. The second photo was found last week, and i am not sure what it is, any ideas ?

    I know that the plant higher people down the road from me, have had a nightmare with theirs. It keeps blowing oil like a fountain on a regular basis, apparently it requires a special regulator to govern the flow. They have given up and sold it on.

    Dead hedging with the brash. A few years ago i cut acre coups in a woodland. All the brash was woven into a dead hedge around the edge. the final hedge was about 7' high, with the top layers left unfinnish hanging out into the wood to make the hedge look bigger than it actually was. The hedge last about 4 years, by then the regrowth was above brousing height.

    I like it, what ampage did you weld tham at. How did you ensure that the angle grinder was cutting square ?

    I have no idea, but they are big and shiny therefore expensive

    I would like to read an article in 20-30 years time about how mans impact in this area has now all but dissapeared, and how the forest has regenerated. However given some of the natural disasters such as Mount St Helens where billions of trees were lost to pyroclastic flows, nature has a canny knack of bouncing back.

    Combine corn beef with mash potato, and season to taste. Either wrap in pastry, or put in pie dish and cover with pastry. Bake in the oven for 20-30 minutes till the pastry is cooked. Enjoy with mushy peas and gravy.

    Which one ? proper home made with salt beef or using corned beef out of a tin (you know its sooo wrong, but it tastes so good)

    Use the chainsaw to score a line around the tree level with the mouth. This will act as you guide when cutting the back cut.

    Mid wales and the Marches assessment centre cover your area.

    Come to Pembrokeshire, apart from Manorbier, you can always find some space with little in the way of hassle.

    I like the first of the felling pics, with the snow being left in mid air, and the slightly blurred branch tips. I can not believe that it is -16c with you, it was 10c here today.

    G & M tools are very good, and sell union graduate lathes at very reasonable prices. Graduate lathes are big and heavy, which is what you need. G & M Tools UK. Huge stock of used lathes and machine tools for engineers and cabinet makers shipped worldwide--

    What ever it is, it is very slow growing. The annual growth rings left by each years terminal bud are very close together.

    My rayburn regent uses about 1.5 cube per month, but with the slightly chilly weather that we have just had, 1.5 cube lasted about 2.5 weeks. If you rayburn is as old as ours it will not be as air tight as it should be, and will need coal to keep it in at night. If you have yet to install it, than completely take it apart, and re-build it, making sure that all the joints are properly sealed with fire cement. I need to do this to ours, but it will mean draining the cental heating system, and i can not bring myself to do this yet ! Shop around for replacment parts, as the posh aga shops charge alot more than normal shops.

    No, i gave it to a friend for his 40th. However, i have spied some more burs in the woods were we are felling at the moment, including an ash bur that looks to be about 3' across. If you are interested i will post pics when i get them out of the wood.

    The fast trac looks very lonely, not a tree in site. What were you winching ?

    Maybe it is leprechauns getting too excited whilst burying there gold.
