  1. Hi all, I am wondering if people could let me know what lengths you cut your logs into depending what they are for, and who they are for, so I can get a bit of knowledge. I don't really know why I want to know, but there you go, it can't be bad knowledge for a forester! If this doesn't make sense then shout. Thanks very much, Sam
  2. Christ. Im no posting any pictures of my tools on here! Extra layer of weatherproofing is what my boss used to call mud.
  3. All corvids are clever, but they aren't clever enough!
  4. That is the best thing said for a while I think So not a Detol fan then?
  5. Rather funny, always pictured you more as an ecologist type. Good stuff Do us a favor though, keep posting!
  6. Can I ask, and feel free to say no, what you are? Or what you would like to be Ham? I find your posts some of the most interesting to read on here, I like your view of tree living. As I say, I know its not my place to ask, but I am so very nosey Cheers Sam.
  7. Footman James wont insure @ 17 Was it as a named or main driver?
  8. Hi all, Im looking for the cheapest model of Landie to insure. Also any companies that will touch a 17 year old in one Cheers Sam

  10. Gransfors Bruks Snap on Makita Buck knives are well liked, I dont - but lots do Bladetech sharpeners Husqvarna & Stihl... clearly Felco Pruning Shears Silky Fox saws Mora knives Helly Hanson workwear Hope thats some use
  11. I think a man with a company name like yours Wazz should be careful what he says on a thread like this!
  12. Dropped a nice yearling doe for the freezer, and a rabbit.... for "ballistic testing..." . Tikka T3 Lite Stainless, all standard apart from the trigger which is at 1.5lb. Scopes a 8x56 S&B, beastly optics, probably the best woodland scope you can get I reckon. Mod is a PES Scout, pretty happy with that after changing from a Ase Utra last year, balance is good - far better than the T8 oil drums people like. I shoot two rounds through it, developing a fifth at the moment. The first one is a 140 Nosler Spitzer soft point, mainly for hill work. And the second (what I used last weekend) is a 160 Hornaday soft point, round nosed. It is useless past 150m, but when it hits it makes a very big hole, virtually no hydraulic shock, and puts a lot of blood out of the wound, so an easy carcass to follow up with less meat damage than a .243 100-grainer! Sam
  13. About to ask the same question! Could you PM me a price when you can bud? Cheers
  14. Out of the "jap" pickups - HiLux or Ranger. Or just be sensible and buy a defender....
