I'm looking for a self employed climber/groundsman to help out for two days a week. We're based near Shaftesbury in North Dorset. Our work is predominately domestic tree surgery but also carry out numerous bracing and planting projects. Feel free to give me a call. Nick Baxter 074158900038 [email protected]

Thanks steve, never come across that one before. It looks exacly what I need!

Hi all I have a sycamore to brace but the space between the two stems is going to be too short to fit the shock absorber, loops and allow for growth. It will require at least the 2T system. Other than just not putting the shock absorber in, how have others got round this problem? I'd appreciate any thoughts. Thanks Nick

Thanks David, i should have trusted my instinct! Yes i certainly should have done that. Cheers Nick

Could anyone help with this ident? I found it at the base of a beech. I initially thought armillaria because of the ring on the stipe but theres no obvious dark patches at the top of the cap. They also look a little like Collybia but i think they are possibly too large? Id appreciate any input! Nick

I need an extra pair of hands for general tree work in North Dorset. Work will become regular for the right person. The right person should be self employed with at least cs38 and a first aid certificate. Please PM me with your details if your interested. Many thanks Nick www.nbtreemanagement.com

Thank you David, I've never seen recinaceum flat like that before. Thanks again!

Hi all, I found this fruiting body on a basal wound of a large London plane yesterday. It looks to me like Heterobasidion assosum, however this inside is dark in colour and my fungi id guide suggests it should be white? Can anyone offer a suggestion? Many thanks Nick

Shaftesbury...

I'm looking for a self employment groundsman/ climber in the North Dorset area to help a small business for occasional work. Standard qualifications are ideal, please contact me for further information. Thanks, Nick 07415 890038 [email protected] Sent from my SM-G935F using Arbtalk mobile app

I'm looking for a contractor who will be confident they can pull some beech trees over that lean slightly towards a lake. The trees are generally 20m tall and are fully mature. The client has 6-8 of them that need felling and they can't be dropped in the lake as it's recently been dredged. Anyone think it can be achieved? I'd appreciate any thoughts. Thanks, Nick.

Nice points, thanks for your replies. Anyone else? 😀

Looking at purchasing a van vault outback or simular but want to be confident that I can fit everything in. So...what vault/storage box do you have and what kit do you squeeze in them? Thanks Nick

Thanks for your replies. I did look at the FC phytophthora alni fact sheet before posing this and the leaf symptoms seem to be yellowing of leaves and not until late summer. I'm not ruling it out though! I'm also suspecting frost damage?
