  1. put this together the other day to try to promote chiminea and fire pit logs sales at local shop, just went for rustic rather than weatherproof! blue stained pine and leylandii
  2. I have a number of burr birch, mulberry and other if you are interested, what sort of sizes are you looking for?
  3. look good in the vids but be careful get working demo or set up by supplier 1st. can be heavy on end of crane but in right situation a good bit of kit, other option is just the simple blade added to a grapple head and cuts as you close the grapple
  4. I have found that the drying process tends to produce dramatic results http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/milling-forum/45162-anybody-milled-eucalyptus.html , I have not followed up on boards milled for a client some time ago but there must be a way of controlling it to produce usable wood / timber, huge amounts are produced and used around the world
  5. ok Steve thanks for your reply, Eddie Eco I wish you well in recovering / replacing kit
  6. Eddie Eco sorry to hear your news. Steve can you explain why there is a need to list kit before it needs to be flagged up as stolen, thanks j
  7. what diameter and length, + lc energy
  8. yes late 60's 2nd intake, I think, a brilliant 2 years, fond memories of learning the ropes! filling / draining cavities, bracing with metal rods, forestry work though mainly, would love to go back and do it again, the mix of Stuart Bunce, (Clif)ford, Bill, oh and the man with the sheep dog, my memory is a little uugh, good interaction with Foxhole ! only know of a couple of others, good to see you still in tree work, Dartington was the best introduction to tree work and a lot more.
  9. Castrol Syntrans synthetic Transmission Fluid, in ours as well, the only oil change in anything where I have noticed the difference. your correct it is an investment!
  10. consider mulching it?
  11. after years of procrastination my 1st bowl
  12. schliesing do have an option to remote control the hand fed chipper, ours is wireless, with the obvious advantage of not having an operative poised by the stop and reset, they also do a dedicated crane fed version, the ZX Forst 550 ZX Forst | Schliesing ,John how are you getting on with the jenson, I see pics on here the other day and have always thought the crane fed one to be a good machine,
  13. pics schliesing, as with all crane feeding of chippers care not to over feed material into the hopper, the 550 has a good appetite but you can make slower progress by feeding to much to fast
  14. crane and hand feed ours most excellent machine, chip quality possibly a bit rough depending on what you want but through put very good, care needed with short fat cord type lengths as shark tooth upper roller tends to violently smack stick to upper hopper, you do not want to have your hand on or over stem at this time, push with next stem or push stick or with flat of hand
  15. crown reduction 25% fire
  16. welding mask again! deanshanger
  17. not always same day got mog and trailer stuck on site! had to unload almost 18m3 chip by hand uugh
  18. lucky hinge! on site today:001_smile:
  19. Some things you never want to read on here but by sharing news of this tragic incident hopefully this post will make us all work that bit safer. My thoughts go out to all colleagues affected by this incident, family and friends of and especially you Sean heal well and fast fellow arborist.
  20. We have had excellent service and prices from British Hardwood Trees. Bareroot Trees, Hedging Plants, Shrubs | British Hardwood Tree Nursery
  21. Duecker HF200 Chipper Ref: CH551529 1 here
  22. ''Let the buyer beware'', as in I have bought a wrong'un both from private and dealer sources, good advice from aspenarb, 'take a decent fitter with you'
  23. Pete is that your Bosnian brother with the chipper?
  24. I've fallen foul of the last one a couple of times:001_huh: , both old and new
  25. We put non original belts on a 206 vermeer and they would not dissengage off the pulleys properly, and the cutter wheel would turn whenever the engine was running. Possibly check belt tonsion.
