    wow, i bet they look great though flying around in flocks, but if it isnt helping the rest of the birdies then that isnt cool. they must be easy targets for our birds of prey though, i would of thought.

    i bought a similar thing fot the pole pruner but it was useless, it wasnt bungied like that, i handed it back, and when you cut a branch you usually need to move it which is a pain when you are attached but the hedge cutting is a diferent operation.
  13. Stephen Blair
    will it attach to the single sided trimmer and the long reach version?
  14. Stephen Blair

    the huge beech hedge gets cut back every year from a platform, it takes a team 2 weeks to do i think. a few years back they reduced it by approx 20feet. anyone who hasnt seen this hedge up close should make a point of it, very impressive indeed.

    i would love a job with you mate. how do you guys get on with beasties and snakes at work, or have we just been brainwashed that snakes and killer spiders are everywhere?

    heres the little chipper doing some lime, scott is still getting to grips with it, its only his second day with it really, so he hasnt quite got the knack of it, i reduced 3 large limes, cut back all the pathway overhang and end loaded a big limb on a birch on the one side, and all the chip fitted in easily under the trees, and the customer was installing a log burner so we logged the bigger stuff for her and filled her new log store with seasoned timber from my yard to get her started.
