Yes. Stone district match.

I've been Stihl thru and thru for 35+years. I bought a 390 for the start of last hedge laying season and it's superb. Don't think I'll buy another Stihl.

Around the bend at one match.

A few pics of Stafford style, winning hedge in National Champs Derby style and second in Cheshire and NW champs.

Did you do it? Beech lays well if you know what you're doing. You'll need to bind it well as they'll lift up if you don't.

It's quite a soft wood but it's not a softwood. Burns well; ask all those who burn nothing but in northern climes.

Stove at my old house still good. I installed it in '92. -
The whole family has a passion for racing. Sad day for road racing and NI. RIP William Dunlop.

I have gas where I live at the moment but have rarely used it so a significant saving. I'm moving soon to a cottage with no gas supply or oil tank. I shall rely on a stove for heat and hot water with an immersion heater as back up.

So that's where the old threshing boxes ended up!

If you can attract swans they may help. I used to have the devil's own job trying to establish ordinary lilies in a lake I managed. Every introduction was ravaged by them.

Just harvested mine. Scythed it off a few days ago but was a couple of days late as it was dropping seed like mad. Managed to salvage enough for future project and some for a couple of mates.

A mate of mine started suffering bad and prolonged headaches. Diagnosed as not enough salt in diet.

Oh dear....I remember those!

Looks well stacked in the trailer so a lot less than 50% air space I reckon. Anyway....half of 3.4 is 1.7 :-) See what you did though.
-
How high is it stacked? If it's 3' then that's 120 cubic feet =3.4 cubic metres. About 2 tonne?
-
Matches.
-
No. My favourite would be the one that does the best job at a reasonable price.
-
I prefer the cleaner lines of more contemporary stoves; not too modern though. The older cast stoves can be too ornate and 'fiddly'.

Wood-burning stove for long logs?
Graham replied to Tom at Heartwood's topic in Log burning stoves and fireplaces
I was looking at the Arada Stratford 16 so good to know that. No combi. The hot water and a few rads are powered from a back boiler. -
Yes on ash.
-
Possibly not so far away either. Far fewer insects coupled with a drought and we're in trouble.

Wood-burning stove for long logs?
Graham replied to Tom at Heartwood's topic in Log burning stoves and fireplaces
Do any boiler stoves work moderately well? I'm in a real quandry as to whether to fit one or just rely on a decent size stove to heat a small cottage. -
Dust bowl blues here. Bad year for seed germination with two rows of carrots failing along with parsnip, beetroot, French beans and broad beans.
