How much for a level HiLux of well-seasoned hardwood in Mendip?
geoff replied to wanstronian's topic in Firewood forum
good seasoned h/w logs will now be at a premium,£90 a cubic yard is not too much for the work involved in my opinion,folk just don't understand the costs and investment while seasoning involved. -
I drive a little suzuki jimny when I just need my climbing kit and a couple of saws,it will go places a bigger motor wont,outside of a landy,very light footprint,total reliability,take it easy and you can get 40miles/gal,and they are not expensive to buy or service. Just an alternative.

Thats heavy,be suprised if you get a thaw for the next week or more.

You wont be needing a crash mat then,deep joy!

I just go on the scrounge for non returnable pallets at the builders merchants,use them for the base & sides,a couple on top under the sheeting to keep the air circulation going. Costs about nothing.

Drill a hole in the sink and fit a waterproof natural light near the plug hole ,would make a great reflector to top up the old vit D!

Nice work!

How about tie bundles of it up,transport it that way if it won't chip. long shot,offer it to a zoo?

Could'nt watch the first one,just too worrying!

Take the mutt for a strutt,& cook a meal for the family,ahh tranquility!

Not sure,but if it wont chip properly after a long trip like that you will be 'bamboozled'! Going to get my coat now, sorry!!!

Pollards, the forgotten art-discussion
geoff replied to Tony Croft aka hamadryad's topic in General chat
Not naive to that down here Steve,I'm lucky,Ihave been both sides of the fence.New thead potential here, 'should an old pollard be left to detiorate,or be beligerantly hacked?' You make a valid point here I.M.O. -
Pollards, the forgotten art-discussion
geoff replied to Tony Croft aka hamadryad's topic in General chat
I may be wrong, but trees can maybe be capable of self pollarding. but surely those that we have inflicted coppice and pollard upon through our endeavours,both past (for a product), and modern,maybe a row of street trees to be retained rather than cut down ,gives us an obligation to cary on our enforced relationship with these long lived trees! -

Pollards, the forgotten art-discussion

As an aside,(so please forgive),I was today talking to a ma who mills/splits and works timber suplying various trades(lock gates,furniture,chestnut fence etc),and he is making and selling shingles,usualy made from resinous evergreen, well,he is also producing shingles from poplar,and reckons they are durable. Back on track,these old pollards/copice that are now not worked,what prognosis for their future? I feel they would live for longer,even as a legacy of our past,if they were to be worked. But fear they were used as a 'spring board' to lift us to the 'plastic era'!
