Hi Any ideas ? Thanks in advance.

Thanks.

Hi Any ideas - Gall maybe ? Thanks

Is your remote control a farmi forest or aftermarket one ?

I currently have a Farmi Forest CH260 PTO chipper on a Valtra T130. Ideally I would like to feed this chipper with a crane. Is it possible to run this chipper with a 3 point linkage crane (eventhough the chipper is attached to the tractor on the 3 point linkage). If so what crane would you recommend ? At present its a 2 man operation as I have been feeding it with an excavator but would prefer it to be a one man operation. Thanks in advance.

We are looking for staff willing to work with our existing team/s. Must hold basic certification & preferably CSCS. 7.5 tonne driving licence an advantage. Domestic & Commercial work. Excellent rates of pay subject to qualifications & experience - trial days required. PM for details.

Thank you all. My initial thoughts were 'Pleurotus ostreatus' so I'll go with that.

Good Luck ! I can relate to what your saying about some individuals work ethic etc. We are all praying for workers with that sort of passion but in my experience workers like that are collectors items which is a shame for the industry as a whole !

Found these at the base of a Turkey oak. Any suggestions ? Laetiporous ? Thanks
