My advice would to go on a one day course near you,,they will teach you the basics,,what tools you really need,,,,,not all the fancy ones they`d like you to have,,,,,,then you can get some direction on what you actually want to achieve,,,,bowls are very hard to master, but basic ones arnt,,,in between centres is easiest for a beginner,,,, Look up your local club,,there a great help,,and will give you endless free advice,,,and usually have get togethers,,,,,,, you can turn green wood,,especially to practice on,,and its very forgiving,in time you will learn lots,,,,,grab yourself a book like carlos said,,,,try e-bay,,theres loads on there,,, Good luck,,,,,its adictive

thats a tricky question,,,,,,i honestly think they dont make a long lasting pair of chainsaw pants for a reason,,,,,,,they wouldnt sell as many,,,,,lets be honest,,,if they last a yr your lucky,,,chainsaw always melts em,,,,somewhere,,,,,,you get that anoying hole where it fills your chainsaw boots up..and the mrs kills you,,,for sprerading the days work across the floor,,,,....they dont make long lasting chainsaw trousers for the same reason ford dont make rot resistant cars,,,,,,,,they`d be stuffed,,,,,,

Design student developing new forestry product
delabodge replied to Lewuk's topic in Forestry and Woodland management
a decent groundie bag for clearing up rakings would be handy,,go through so many builders sacks,,,bit like a large pop up throw rope bag,,,,,not the cheap gardening ones that the bottom wears out in minutes,,,,,could double up as a jacuzzi,,,,?? -
if we went by there beliefs,,we`d never work,,,,ive turned quite a few of these woods,,and as long as suitable extraction,,and good dust masks used you`ll be fine(honest trigger),,,,,,,try to only use english woods though,,,,
