If you Mill, I vouch for it. Also for firewood/General use even. It takes the error out of the chain when used correctly. Takes longer for me than a hand file. But if you do it when everything needs trueing, excellent bit of kit. Im not affiliated with Chainsawbars. But have been a happy customer. several threads have covered various opinions on this. Try Granberg and file perhaps in search tab.

I think they will but not thrive. Im in NZ at the moment and have seen them on the wet west coast of the south island and possibly on the otago penisula , right at the bottom where they get frost and snow, but they are more compact, later flowering and not as prolific with their flowering. Try them in france Ty. I think Chilterns seeds do them. I will have a look for retail packets if you want. Rata is tougher but similar. The picture is a flowering pohutakawa at Pahia on the sea front Bay of islands.

I would go with a cherry, maybe an asian type. Distinctive horizontal markings. Cherries peel horizontally, also are the spots horizontal?

If so far through the job finish it cut your losses. If only just started or not started. Let them know you cannot work with them, then leave. They will likely be used to it. Lifes too short for the extra hassle. Sometimes you can pscychologically outwit and put them in their place and restore a working relationship. Stand back and look at the situation calculatedly

Jeep won but its all the insurance hassle etc thats to follow:thumbdown:

Perhaps not the place to post this, but where did Frank the starter of this thread go? He hasnt been on since Feb 2012!!

No I wasn't making a judgement on the status of the job in this thread, but rather generalising on what previous posts I'd read about rush/rescue jobs. I wouldn't want to stir comment on someones work as we are not allowed to in a insulting way on this forum. We need to get on nicely. But like the OP. I have left things unfinished and not as safe as I liked due to circumstances. The positive is that someone is out there for the customer when you would struggle to get anybody of any trade. I remember the guage blowing off our heating oiltank one christmas eve and the fuel company wouldnt come out until the new year:thumbdown: Peace out:001_smile:

Reading past posts on emergency jobs. You go in make safe as needed and either go back later or someone else finishes. Considering the season customer is fortunate to of had quickish service. A high proportional of the working population will not be in a fit state to drive never mind work.

Don't know about the bomford but ryetec rebadge italian machines, might be worth a look on their website.

In addition to treedaves comments. The sovema has a scraper. It gets bent and broken all the time. The roller bearings get replaced nearly as much as it needs greasing. Hers the link for previous thread with picture, its on first page.http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/large-equipment/51061-bcs-valiant-650-alpine-tractor.html

Depending on density of scrub/vegetation, you may struggle to above 1.2m width with 75hp I have used a 1.2m on a 90hp BCS alpine tractor and it can be slow work or stalling. People tend to leave it late when the material has gone woody and takes more chewing up. P.S I used a sovema with side shift from kilworth. Check geometry of linkage and pto on any purchase. This one operates at tight pto guard shredding angles. It is posted in a picture on here in a thread on alpine or BCS tractors

No not the legal issues again:lol:

If you do transplant self harvested ones. Mulch/keep weed free and water with extra vigilance. For a quicker success, may not make sense now! trim roots to no more than 20cm across. Line out in your garden, care for them for the growing season. Lift late October early November. You should get top grade stock and rubbish plants will show their worth. As for where they come from it doesnt currently matter. But avoid getting them from diseased areas of other species. Maybe even wash the roots off to minimise phytophra etc.

It was a good shot though. I thought Paving Slabs:laugh1:

It was all the rage a while back. Even Lazy student types thought they had the makings of a good farmer because they spent hours on it. :001_rolleyes:I think it was connected to facebook. Which Im not on either, I prefer my own life in my own space with interesting people. Everyday is a school day on Arbtalk.

A quick google tells me its a kind of parallel arm that fits a sander. I think the general answer is we slab as accurate as we can, then smaller slabs can go through a planer thickenser. Larger pieces are not a major problem when not true, part of the rustic character.

If restraining hadn't taken place here what would of happened? I doubt someone said "Lets go for a walk and you can tell me all about it" Without getting physical. 1000 people could be dead potentially! BBC News - North Sea passenger ferry hit by fire

Nice experience Drew, Im in NZ at the moment and find it demoralising how the kauri were clear felled. To give others an idea of how long it will take to replace them these are recent photos taken in Nelson NZ. Both photos are same tree.

I think its been discussed before, if I remember right its a rubber seal/guide under the plate next to the clutch. I have 357xp and 346xp. Both can do it, especially when warm and when using bio oils. try typing in 357xp or 346xp leak in search tab.

Valid point, but farming simulator is a success, how many people are actually famers? Same with mainstream games of crime &war. Also lots of people watch axmen, swamp loggers. Although it will glamourise the industry it could create awareness, albeit without aches and pains and real world legalities which would make it tedious if done in detail.

Tasers or stunguns. No contact, problem neutralized:bluboomteamenforcer Thats a whole nuther can of worms:001_rolleyes:

Legally in cotton wool world its not allowed. Personally If I was responsible I would at some point become physical. I couldn't live with the conscience of not doing something and someone was injured. In the theory world of the classroom they preach the ideal situation. As we know away from shirts and ties and paper its very different. Just be reserved and careful I reckon. At the rate we are going protesters will be very untouchable within a short time. Human rights(self important arrogance) will prevail. I do agree with the idea of human rights, just not the distorted version.

As you coach your staff they could reach a level thats required to compete in timbersports competition. Then on a scheduled date, have a mega online brawl competition.

I've read it, thanks for download pointer Ben. Here is my personal points, others will differ. I agree with the style and attitude towards his tree pruning and keeping trees for the longer term. I think beyond my lifespan when dealing with a tree. He is trying to leave trees in a better state for years to come and he deserves praise for this. What I would prefer and think would help present this information in a more solid convincing light is to take out the personal "I" this or that in the text as this makes it a one man crusade and akin to the american style promotional deals we get on the web. You know the "Send me just $99.99 and I will give you the information you need to never worry about money ever again" This book does not deserve to be looked at in this light. Also to cut out the 500 million years of evolving and us being like orang-utangs, Despite what ones personal beliefs are in this it has little effect on dealing with the tree now I feel . When Attenborough says" xxxxx billion years ago when.... I react, how do you know it was that long ago? I have read several books on science matters and the more you look in to it the less convincing it all is and opens even more arguments, whilst undermining credibility. Its like defending yourself in court about a charge. Just give the information thats asked for and needed. You don't mention other things that make you less favouable. This would make a shorter book perhaps but people would get the knowledge they need. This sounds highly critical, but its not. Its just two points. I could of emailed the author directly but, have put it out on here to get the ball rolling. I hope it stimulates others then David can crack on with the next instalment. P.S Mods feel free to mod or delete this post. And David feel free to email me through the avatar link.
