    I've got an order form to send off to them to get one. I received a copy of wood decay by weber today and that already has helped me work it out. I'll get the order form posted. Then go and buy a bigger bookcase. Already filled mine now.

    So it's Grifola? I'm still unsure as to which fungi cause what rots, I'm better than I used to be but it's just a case of finding the association. And trying to remember them. It's a bit tricky!

    It appears to be an old meripilus or a Grifola frondosa. Laetiporus tends to be on the stem as it cays heartwood where merip and Grifola are base/root decayers

    I got a hp photosmart plus b210a. Has e print and AirPrint. Get the hp e print app to go with it too. It's a bit finicky to set up but does work. Mine is a bit temperamental but I think that's my wireless network causing the issue. I got mine from comet for £55 Was £15 cheaper than currys. Make sure it's the b210a model you get as there is a b210 that doesn't have AirPrint! The box for the printer will say compatible with iPad but only says it on one side so check for that.

    looks like Armilliaria to me too, but it could be a range as more than one will have white mycelium!

    they are average quality, made by oregon, as are most things.

    the price has been put in and i think theres a good chance we will get it, i will let you know.

    Personally I would consider it as a 'normal' tree and manage the regrowth, taking away the poorly attached and smaller regrowth and then leave one or two main branches to rebuild the canopy over the coming years. Along with a thin of the lower crown to leave some resources for the tree to help rebuild it's upper canopy.

    Bigger bar? As long as it lands in the right place what's the issue?

    I pick anything up and the if the price isn't £free then I put it down or find it cheaper!

    it probably works out to 2 and a half hours for me, i could probably shave it a lot closer to 2 though depending on timescales for it all id be interested in the extra bit

    chainsaws work best, cut them at the bottom, then cut out what you need and then get a ruck load of nails and stick it back up!
  14. RobRainford
    and id still have a bit left! id have to drive steady though, all my footwear is a bit heavy

    In my little citroen I could get there and back on £30!

    It's the quickest way back to the car park. I wouldn't go in there otherwise. I'm way too much of a tigharse!
  17. RobRainford
    that crossed my mind actually! a free wood sign would see a lot disappear i think!

    Got 5 lombardy pops coming up, ive not secured the job yet but im putting some feelers out. In st helens, you can get a good sized wagon up there, probably an 8 wheeler i would imagine. Im after someone who either wants it and can take it off my hands from site or somebody to haul it away for me to about 7 miles away. If you want it, its free, however you have to come and get it, doesnt matter how you take it away as long as it disappears. they are about 70ft tall but wood will be about 30" at thickest and about 18" at thinnest and roughly 40ft of stem each. a good amount of wood.

    its not the best, but when dry will burn average, people have mixed experience with it.

    I know, i saw it in the trafford centre selfridges and flicked through it a bit and thought it would be one worth having, not at their price though!

    Now I know for next time! I've ordered a few more fungi books, roger Phillips and terrors book this week. Along with mushroom miscellany. So I'll be able to identify more with a bit of ease!
  22. RobRainford
    It was a bit of a long shot. It's all i know that's similar looking ish Were the rest right through?
  23. RobRainford
    Desiccated I. Hispidus, ganoderma (adspersum/applanatum?) phelinus sp and what appears to be pleurotus ostreatus?
  24. RobRainford
    I've not used a huge amount but I love the sound of my 660 with it's dual port exhaust. Some of the older 090s and 070s sound pretty cool!

    It's up to your judgement if you think it's safe. As we can't see the tree and judge the conditions to climb there's no point asking!
