yes sorry i was off line couldnt answer your thread it is indeed a ditch with a wall usually on a raised drive/bank so when viewed from a distance your view is not affected by a fence or similar .........or so im told and yes the roots are destroying the wall

i personally pick up trusty old 262 but cant beat the grunt of 575 when the going gets tough on dead elm etc but like they said must be sharp and crucially depth guages set correctly
-
i agree with you mate but ive done the sums ie cost of wood ,labour,fuel,delivery etc not trying to teach anyone to suck eggs but 50 pound is minimum to make some profit anyone agree:confused1:

as said above you can burn them . i removed a couple of acres last year and sowed grass on the bare ground worked a treat suppressing weed growth any stump regrowth was sprayed off aswell . best tool tor this job is jcb ours is a6ton machine with a rehandling grab (look at digbits) pulls them out or cut them over to save diturbance then burn the lot but as said stay out the smoke

i thought the forums intention was to help like minded people in the same industry to share ideas and thoughts saying that nobody gets anything easy thats not to say you cant give advice.whether you take it or do whatever with it is up to you .i think some replies are sharper than their saws mind you ....

netting machine is only a tipping tray which im sure every body has now but as isaid they werent invented back then and mind many hours filling bags nets by hand. i use 3120 regularly as mainly big hardwoods dutch elm trees no way 18inch will do even with a bore cut i would if i could as you know how heavy the bloody thing is

on the subject of builders bags i fail to see the problem as said as long you are clear on what you are selling and not trying to sell a false amount its ok anyway most are repeat customers and therefore know what they are getting i have never had aproblem or complaint in15 years of using them after all its a volume same as a net of logs (ours hold app 13 logs some i see hold ten) is just that as long as you are clear you will have no problem as said logs are a long term business with money tied up years in advance if you want to retain customers

this is exactly the case on a willow at standrews cathedral .coronet cuts were made to app 9 inch diameter branches ,two years on there are "tufts" of new growth which looks anything but natural.

extreme caution must be used when cutting old oil drums gasses inside explode with lethal force 2 people killed already doing just that ,hope you dont think im being too dramatic but one of these guys was an experienced fabricator.
