    Hi there I have some cuts from a yew stem take down roughly 30x36”. Any idea on the value of these today to a wood turner? Thanks 

    Most woodturners would expect you to pay them to take it away!!!

  2. My solution would be to re excavate the hole trying not to smear the sides, use a fork and don’t stand in the hole.fork the bottom to full depth of the tines then add two cups of lime  mix in a 150 mm layer of gravel then backfill the hole with quality topsoil, not the. Compost / sand crap that most sell, then plant your tree on a raised mound, perhaps get smaller tree 

    also would put drains under the artificial grass the tree pit is acting as a sump

    Its the standard Chinese engine used on post knockers, petrol drills etc.

     

    Thing is, it fills a niche for odd products like this at a sensible price. No mainstream manufacture really makes petrol SDS drills, for example.

    I still have in the shed a ryobi petrol sds drill just can’t bear to scrap it made before  Ryobi was sold by the japs to the Koreans or is it the other way round

    Going to mention this 9" petrol angry grinder recently purchased, makes all the battery gear look very limp.Ideal for flail sharpening,swap to a thin disc and its the nuts for cutting metal or crap out of the mulcher. Handy thing to keep in the van,tank will need a bit more protection but other than that its been brilliant.
