  1. Due to Bretit uncertainty, a lot of the big sawmills have been stockpiling so there is a massive excess, saw logs have drooped as a result
  2. I wish i could hold my breath for a decent time, but years of sawdust are taking there toll.
  3. It has remained consistently clear for the last month, hopefully it will remain so.
  4. Clear water and sunshine.
  5. Himalayan knotweed
  6. It would make the APF even more interesting, and better than moving a few wooden blocks around.
  7. Contract splitting for one of the estates. Large diameter Eucalyptus has been testing the splitter.
  8. Chalara does kill very effectively regrow. One of the woods that I manage that was thinned three years ago, I have found one or two ash stumps with viable regrow within the compartment.
  9. Genetically Ash is very diverse, so there will be resilient trees out there, knee jerk sanatising felling will remove these trees. But at the end of the day they are your trees, and your choice.
  10. Ooooo, you beauty. Chysolina cerealis, like dry sandy soil and feeds on wild time.
  11. It is a good investment Mike, mine is still surprising me with what it will do.
  12. I have used it a number of times to justify trees lack of suitability for TPO order.
  13. The Tempo tree assessment might help. http://www.flac.uk.com/downloads/tree-assessment-systems.html
  14. It is still surprising me where it will go, and what it will lift And the best bit is i can move it on a trailer with the Land Rover. So while i have been working this site, i have been able to nip off and do two other small jobs.
  15. Trundle trundle trundle. https://youtu.be/tVKaXBH5GFY
  16. @gdh yours firewood is ready for collection.
  17. Its finally arrived Aled? looks like a tank, you will have to be careful near Castlemartin, ir they might start shooting at you
  18. But the ear defenders are utter rubbish. A plug of moss in each ear is more effective
  19. I wouldn't discribe the price of timber roadside as outrageous, it is finally reflecting its true cost particularly for smaller amounts moter/manual extraction
  20. Hope you cleaned the gutters out while you were next to them. Good the see the the branches and logs running so no shock loading.
  21. The 6100 is starting to fly Andrew. @shavey
  22. Its the Dolmar 6100. The hammer is a engineers hammer that i got from a car booty for 50p, and i put a longer handle on it from ebay. The shoulder straps make a big difference, you don't notice the extra weight.
  23. The curse of all foresters, butt rot
