    that's why you wanted to sell off bulk loads from your yard still 12"seems a waste

    to run it as a green waste site you will need a license from the EV Agency and be limited to how much you can store and remove (sell) the one I use sometimes has to stockpile unchipped waste till his compost heap is ready and then he spreads it on his own fields I cannot remember how much he is allowed to move off site but it was not a lot

    I would go with concreate try to make the tamp marks so it runs the water off to the side and not hold it there behind the marks. Its going to be a bugger in the winter with snow and ice

    I think a lot of employees do not have the slightest inkling as to how much it costs there employer to work for them all they look at is you charge me out at 30 pounds and I only get 10 pounds

    roundup/glycol will not have any affect on the cut stems as it needs to be taken in by the leaves , glycol plugs would work but would be expensive and time consuming for that area if you could use the tube guards then spray say in 2 years time that might work

    it looks quite useful for small operators but needs something like a free running guide wheel for the rope onto the capstan to stop wear of the rope

    the problem with Drax if it was shut down today there would be a lot of power cuts as it supply's a lot of electric into the national grid for all the country also there is a lot of chip produced by the small tree surgeons that cannot get it into the supply chain because of the paperwork and it is dumped there was one day I think last year that the government boasted about it only used renewable power to supply the country

    I think you will have to cut some of the neglected foliage back away from the outside then dig the brambles out from the inside replace the missing glass ( you will not get a fork lift through the door) stack it in crates so it will not fall over and bust the glass maybe a auto roof vent will help and it will dry them

    can any one remember where that photo of the mummified dog in a tree hollow is I think it was last week

    maybe something like a wheeled strimmer would be easier https://www.justlawnmowers.co.uk/wheeled-strimmers-brush-cutters.html other outlets available I think you can hire them if its going to be a one off or something like this https://etesia.co.uk/etesia/brushcutters/attila-88.html then finish the dodgy areas with a hand strimmer

    positive for me was burning the stuff I produced from work it saved tip costs and kept me warm now I have retired so not a lot of wood coming in the negative is the wife she struggles to light it, complains its dirty, and says when I leave this earth she will get it taken out and replace with a gas fire we have gas c/h but forgets the time when the beast from the east was here we had a power cut for 4 hours and the stove kept us warm

    on a smallholding type of estate the post and rail fences got painted every year with creosote and a extra couple of brush full round the base at ground level very few posts needed replacing after 40 years

    I do not know about the Zenoah but some makes the bolts tightens the blade and the nut stops it from moving if it has been stored for a long while I would change the grease in the gearbox I use a paint brush and old engine oil on my blades at the end of the day if I have been cutting sappy stuff a quick going over with a wire brush first
