You can be a man on a bike without being a cyclist! What terrain are you looking at riding on? For general pottering about, I think a hybrid is a good compromise

What will an ash woodland look like in 10 years time?
scbk replied to 5lab's topic in Forestry and Woodland management
Not saying that buying this wood, or any woods is the best financial decision; But one way to look at it would be if you plant some faster growing trees now the kids will have some beautiful woodland in years to come My little 2 and a half year old has a small orchard in her name..... -
The same guy has quite a few videos with interesting machines, I liked the full set of ppe in this one with the wood chunker/branch logger Trenchcoat, ray bans, and a moped helmet

Interesting idea, half of it seems to miss the box though

Tree is goring out of the fence, I wonder if there used to be a laurel growing on the far side of the fence years ago?!

Yup, even in rural areas there's plenty of very large industrial and commercial buildings that should be covered in solar panels before they allow planning to convert farm land into solar.

I fitted a brand new eberspacher d2 to a van years ago, that thing was about £800! And a fair bit of work to get a feed from the main fuel tank. Got one of the cheap chinese heaters for the house, still not got round to doing a proper heating system. Got a woodburner in the lounge but it's not enough when it's sub zero. Removed a disused vent and put two 4" stainless pipes through the wall for the warm air and return to the heater, and some plastic waste pipe for cables. Extended the wires on the controller/display so that is inside the house. The battery is an old lorry battery, 12v 220ah as I have a few lying about. Charger is inside with an extended cable going out. Still needs a bit of fiddling round ie try and insulate the air pipes a bit more. Tin cans can be used as joiners/adaptors for the 75mm ducting, and to get the exhaust through wood Fuel tank is 5l but only about 4l is usable.

New to purchasing a woodland
scbk replied to milkshakespoon's topic in Forestry and Woodland management
I think the other thing is the type of dogs that you'd get in a paid dog park are the ones more likely to be problematic..........a bit bitey..... -

It's worth running a dog park for the free fertiliser alone -
If you can, try and get locally grown wood, rather than firewood imported from a far flung country. Softwood or hardwood, it doesn't matter, it will all keep your toes cosy when it's dry.

If you're back up to Inverness again, there's a little backstreet tyre shop that does part worns, he might buy the old tyre off you 👍
