Get the rails from rob easy peasy i can uo my 36 to 48 .. two rails and a couple of plates to join them job done ., as for winch to be honest you can get em on eBay cheaper and just the same .. you just have change a couple of bolts to fit the frame but it’s simple ..

Never get tired of using the Alaskan ., when you flip that first piece over and see what it’s like .,??

I’d agree elm always has some lovely grain to it .was lucky these were sound .. they were old pollards .. so many of them are hollow ..

That ones beech

Cheers ...??

So havnt posted in a while but thought these were worth sharing .. Gota love the colour of the beech but the elm wins it for me ... the elm was roughly 10 ft long and couple of 12 ft lengths and just under 30 inches all done with a 395 36 inch Alaskan

So what's the biggest thing they would fail on ?

Never been asked for any type of card , just check you insurance and off you go -
I agree .... Like I said it's not some thing I would do to that tree .. But I do think half the time we end up faffing around making things look pretty for such a short lived result ! ..
-
That tree could easily be pruned back without ruining its appearance , hell you could Pollard it and bet my life it would be ball of green and epicormic next year (not saying that you should though) just saying can't see no reason why a gentle reduction away from the property isn't possible ??

Our street looks like all the wheelie bins hot together last night and went out on the piss together ! ... I love the way the press say " street furniture" lol ..

Thanks all

Cheers .. Never thought I'd by buying timber so not really hot on current prices ! So excuse my ignorance but approx how many tons would be in that ? I Know moisture etc etc has a lot to do with it but as a rough guide ?
-
Ok apologies in advance as I'm sure it's been asked a thousand times , but what would you expect to pay for approx 50 m3 of year old stacked oak cord at road side ? ...

24 socket does mine

Yeh it does seem a lot but I had a set of blades shatter on a Jensen and ruined the machine , not sure if was anything to do with bolts not being tightend enough but , 70 quid for piece of mind isn't a lot in the grand scheme of chipper prices !
-
Yeh I was also thinking of waiting for the apf but I'm quite inpatient !
-
Most Jensen blades are 310 nm I put a thread up the other day about torque wrenches , I've bought a teng tool one 135 quid does up to 370 I believe or something like that. I think the bolts on a timber wolf 150 are around 80 nm but there tiny in comparison to other chipper blades

What's your budget , give Robert a ring a arborcut , he's got stacks of machines that arnt on his website I'm sure he'll find you something , best of luck
