Good to see your fixing it I have an old 044 its a cracking saw! came with a 24" bar when it arrived, put it on 20" as std but one day i needed to lower some stumps to wall height and i put the 24" on it, burried it into the 3ft ash and it was ace one to keep

Lol me and missus got a campervan and testing the water Should the tree have been retained? Is my question. All the weight combined with possible pocket of rot due to polyporous in one of the main stem with all that leverage near the house....

Think you would need to sell for 80.00 plus for it to be worth it no lower or it would be counter productive

and they dont look uniform either

Whilst on my holls up near grassington I spotted a reduced / rounded over large mature sycamore Any how i looked over the fence to see an old dessicated bracket on the floor, which i was thinking was polyporus. It looks to have come from an old pruning wound / cavity located on the stem near the roadside, 2 metres or so above the main fork. I've seen how polyporus works on sycamores and have seen some extensive white rot in the stems going up to 1.5 - 2 metres from the fruiting body. Although the pictures are bad, they do not show the lean towards the house and the "weight" that is still up there and the size of the tree! I know the sail has been reduced but curious to see how you would have managed the tree?
-
the rot seems to be at the tension side of the tree opposite to the lean wonder how long it will stand like this, and who's duty it is to sort it out! does mellea cause hollowing of the stem or just the soft rot? Just thinking of when diagnosing others i.e when checking with mallet etc to sound for if its hollow cheers
-
No the best pictures etc.... Also you could poke your finger right into the side of the tree

Hi there. Spotted this the other day when walking dog. Quite big at the base this ash. Bark fallen off. Very soft white rot. Desicated fruit bodies and some behind the bark. No rhizomorphs bu thinking honey fungus? Will the tree have had some damage at the base for this to happen or is this tree been a long standing house for a colony of fungi? P.s will post pics soon. Bloody phone!

Hi all Just wondering what saw is best to start out with carving? Budget saw. Was thinking : stihl 170,171,181 or husky 135? Not going to be the best on vibes.... was thinking the 170,171 was good due to picco micro mini.... or the 181 shares the same chains as 200t! Husky seems a lot of cc for the money and 3/8s Would be used as a chipper saw also Many thanks chris
