  14. thanks mate, yeahh it does flood a fair bit the river arcs right around this field so its underwater quite a lot during the winter, see the pic below, the red line shows where the river goes now and the yellow shows where it went like 5ish years ago, water does still flow round there not a lot though thanks mate, ahhaa whack a couple of whale on the barbie! Nope i've never even seen them round by us, talked about them at college a bit, love the work you've done

  17. So guys, where do you see yoursleves, in the not to distant future? 5 years? 10 years? Whatever. What do you aim to acomplish?
  18. Some great pics there charlie! Thats the sort of thing i would love to do more of! Just took these pics, this was done quite a long time ago, back when i was a very young un , amazing how well its worked, big stems of willow lay across the bank, steak and tied down with wire rope, the steaks have washed away now. The last pic is similar to some of the stuff you have been doing, but this ones natural and we dont have any intention of moving it
  19. what do people think of the SIP Freedom trousers Type C? Also can someone get a good pic of a pair? cant seem to find any good ones on the net to see what they look like
  20. haha i've never been interested in fishing. its the river arrow, starts in wales (Gwaunceste Hill or summin) then flows into england (herefordshire) through Kington and then towards Leominster
  21. Having the river run right round one of our fields in an arc we get a lot of problems with river erosion, most of it we have combatted by filling and putting willow stems in, one bad corner was stacked with large concrete blocks, didnt look nice to begin with but how its grown over and looks good. But anyway heres my point, saw this today on the opposite bank, such a shame as a few years a go this oak tree was looking really healthy. Wont be long before hes in.
  22. Yeahh that right, thought i would have a go at a bit of this type of stuff today, always been sort of interested in it, so today i decided that i would have a "practise" at somthing. My Family has got an area of land by the river, lovely place for BBQ's and my friends and I go camping there in the summer, so i have decided to give it a bit of a make over, going to fence it off, plant some more trees, build a nice bench (just gotta mill the timber first) and today i put some "steps" down to the river. Was a bit of a bodge job, but hey they work and im pleased with them, just kinda grabbed some bits of sawn wood scraps and a few old half round stakes and off i went, no real planning involved and certainly no tape measure or spirt level (think i should have taken the spirt level though ), not quite finished gunna get 2 boards, 4ft-ish might measure it and put along each side of the steps going down the bank, if ya get what i mean. Did some strimming aswell, docks and nettles, now its looking good, had a nice afternoon
  23. thanks guys, been milling up at this place for a while so heres what we have milled so far, spec is 1" any width, any length, for floor boards for doing up an house house or somthing
  24. Finally got hold of a Sachs Dolmar 166 (thanks to TCD), the biggest in the Sachs Dolmar range, 118cc! Its amazing, in such good condition too! Still waiting for the 44" bar to come in the post, but had a go with it yesturday with my pretty much brand new 36" Oregon Bar Cutting up a big piece of oak so it would it on the band saw, took the first slab off with the alaskan, rolled it with the tractor, then took the next slab off by nailing a rail along the side and just following it with the saw, dunno why i decided to do it like that lol Was a gooood day
