    Morning, some drizzle through the night and the sound of the tarring lorry at my rd end working with the fibre optic guys woke me up, proper grafters. Romanian I believe. Log splitting this afternoon with a mate for our syndicate, I shall be sat in the digger.

    A few days doing Ash Dieback, my first ones. Crispy is how I’d describe them. Certainly like cutting butter even when there isn’t rot. 14464160-7195-40CB-A00B-8FFDC784D6A3.mov IMG_5103.mov

    Morning chaps! Out early for a grapple day, I was too excited to sign in. first 1 done in an hour too a big scabby totem ready for felling.

    Morning, Maybe sounds a cool cut and jump job. Pictures would be good. I find these type of trees have a high chance to pull the roots plates up as the momentum picks up, so keep that power on and hold your ground, at full stretch obviously 😂😎.

    Thanks guys, I’m thinking an air spade and mulch and fence off if compaction could be the cause, the old ruin is getting done up with a big extension towards the tree so it will become a garden tree and no more traffic on its roots. I’ll pass the info on, cheers

    Don’t waste your time mate, you have to manipulate the screw head loads with the digger and that’s with multi function movements right in front of you, on a loader would be pointless. Get a big splitter if you have the tractor, we’ve just chipped in and bought this between a few of us. So much quicker than the cone although it is more labour intensive but not heavy labour.

    Morning, sorry to hear about the car troubles! stunning day here, my main man Big Dave has done his ankle in so I’m going to be chief tree smasher today! Going to be a warm 1! But first, breakfast!

    This Large mature Beech is coming into leaf and there are no funguses or other stresses around the trunk I can see yet all other Beech in the area are in full leaf. Thoughts? Thanks
