    The first fungi is growing on a firewood offcut that i uncovered with the digger moving timber around. The possible oak polypore i photograph in September. I have been looking on the NBN database and there are only a couple of records in Wales for the polypore.

    Trying to I.D this with the help of @David Humphries book, but i can not work it out any thoughts . Also is the last picture Oak Polypore. I photo'ed It a couple of years ago, and haven't I.D it. Whilst looking through the book it looks very similar.

    Generally i find that woodland owners don't know what they want to do with their woods. Do the woods have any rare species associated with Ash? How many use the footpaths every day? Are there local do-gooders that are likely to stir up trouble? Health & safety legislation when concerned with public safety supperceds all other legislation. If the owner isn't sure what they want to do with the wood, then your best option is to fell out everything with the potential to fall across public roads/ paths, and replant.

    Thin cord prussic always has and always will be an absolute git to release under load. Blakes hitch can always be released under load. Why don't you set the system up and test it to destruction to see what breaks first , i.e. with a tractor in a field.

    Measure out a 5.6m circle in the wood, and count the number of trees, measure the dbh of each tree, and tree height. Depending on how variable the trees are you will need to repeat 6-20 times. You will need to get your hands on the tariff tables to work out tree volume and total volume . Each 5.6m plot is 0.001 of a hectare, so times by 100 to get volume and tree total per hectare. Times by the wood area to get total volume and tree total.

    Timber stacking area is the make or break for small woods. This is what a lot of owners never seem to grasp. Small tree are always slow to process so I would be around the £10-15 mark.

    Being able to cut, stack, and chip whole manky Leylandii doesn't half make life easier. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=lFy1pX8JIyk&t=3s

    Scorpion fly. The end of the abdomen is raised up with the red tip like a scorpion , hence the name .

    My options are limited. We have a good productive saw mill that goes through a lot of Spruce, and pays a fair price. We only have small one person operations milling hardwood, who don't need alot of wood so can be picky, hence the price .

    I don't think that there is any Larch in west Wales, so i have no idea of its roadside Price. Oak is around £90-130 depending on quality.

    Spruce Saw logs in west Wales are around £100 roadside. The chip market is not moving here, firewood grade timber is around £40 roadside. Fencing material is fetching a good price, but unless you are mechanised it is a pain to process.

    Out of the two I would go for the 572, but out of choice the Stihl 462 now that Dolmar ain't available. If you fancy a risky punt there is one one fleabag at the moment.

    Husky bars are as durable as cheese. If you change to a 8 pin(tooth) sprocket you will need to add an extra link to the chain. Based on experience I have never noticed the difference in cutting. Learning the subtle differences between makes when sharpening, will in the long term give you better cutting result.
  24. slack ma girdle
    I have always rated Stihl full chisel , but it is more expensive than Oregon,probably about £100 difference for 100'. Pays yer money and take your choice

    Unless the cause is obvious, then the cause could be anything. You do have a large area of rot/ disfuntion, which must have been there for a long time. Is the tree trying to compartmentalised the rot from the living wood, or is the rot spreading unhindered? There might well be fungi fruiting bodies in Autumn, but are they the cause of the rot, or opportunists taking advantage of the decaying wood.
