  1. I want it to be a wrinkled peach, but i don't think it is, any thoughts?
  2. Its too long, and the tube section too thin. If it is bending with a small relatively vertical tree, it is not going to have the strength to push a back leaning tree which is want you want it to do. The idea is good, it just needs some refinement.
  3. For once not dying Ash, just a limb removal from over a garage.
  4. Here in west Wales after the storm in mid May, alot of trees turned brown, which was due to the storm carrying in salt laden air which burnt off the leaves. I don't know where stourhead is, and coastal proximity, but the very dry cold April and May may have been a factor particularly if the leaves/ needles were freshly emerged.
  5. This the kind of stump grinding i like, air con and radio on, watching the horse flies trying to get in.
  6. Leylandii make the best bearers, some of mine are twelve years old, and have only just started to rot.
  7. That a fine looking well spaced wood, good potential for the future.
  8. That will cause traffic chaos, the mighty mendi plogs Jon tootling down the M5, stopping for a chat every now and then.
  9. I'm based in Pembroke, so not far. Give me a ring 07966792798. I can give you a good idea about what is feasible, costs, possible income etc.
  10. And the dead Ash still keep coming. https://youtu.be/9KHLBS_23PQ
  11. In a nut shell its this. https://www.safeforestry.co.uk/ Developed by Callum Duffy, with little help from FISA. Unlike Anything that FISA has done , this works. Everything you need to be compliant is logged through your phone, with desktop backup.
  12. Big tree week in west Wales. An Ash tree with Dieback, and pushing over a listed wall, and a Ganoderma infested beech.
  13. Good interview Mike, shame about the unhealthy love of Husky chainsaws
  14. Good work Erik, thats some fine looking lumber. Judging by your sooty face, fire damaged?
  15. Jake plate mounts above the 3 point linkage, and is bolted to the chassis. You can mount a crane on it, and still use the the 3pl. A digger with a grab and rota will be a good option
  16. I would be looking for some form of crane to sort the timber once it has been winched up. I did years of manual stacking, and i am now starting to pay the penalty. A jake plate mounted crane on something like a 60hp tractor will be reasonably cheap to purchase .
  17. Have Echo improved the vibration damping/ AV mounts? I stopped using the 450 because the vibrations to my hands were terrible.
  18. I'm still waiting for the video of you driving both in a synchronised style.
  19. Starting to get what the Doosan can and can't do. Just wish it would fit in the average back garden
