Lewis, do you have any guidance about the chainsaw oil issue?
-
possibly should have bought her the iphone6, more hot air and probably for fewer pennies (dont tell anyone i said that)

if you are going to all the effort to make something, use a more durable wood for outside

I think 2 logs per hour at 1.8kg a piece, which is about thirty kg a day, a goodish log basket, so between 2 and 3 tonnes

Ive only ever bought one ticket,gave it to the kids and asked them to check if we had won. I got half an hour of peace and quiet, which I thought was good value for a quid.

Do we have any idea which month this occurred in?

The only bit of helpful advice I can offer is, make sure you know how to get subtitles on the telly, because you wont be able to follow the movie if youve got two up all night teething. (My girls are 21 now so Im a bit smug, I did think we had finally made it through when all four could put their own shoes on, but it was a false dawn!!. Good luck, make as much time to enjoy as you can)

I was involved in putting out a fire inside a hollow Poplar. When we got to the tree flames were shooting out at about 20 feet. The tree survived for several years, and possibly is still there. I have often wondered if, after a fire, a hawthorn hedge or anything else for that matter, was cut down as low as possible, would it coppice? From experience it doesnt grow back if you just leave it.

Egg-shaped burial pods feed the trees and turn cemeteries into forests
farmer rod replied to enrieb's topic in General chat
I had to get some big scots pine out of a cemetery after '87, looked easy enough, but the keeper said as drove in with the tractor " watch out when the boxes go" so I had them slabbed and carried them out by hand as I was a bit spooked generally though, I like the green burial thing -
I think the church used to encourage people to have a bit of the cross to bring them good luck, apparently if you put all the relics back together the the thing would weigh several hundred tonnes which shows how awesome jesus was in carrying it, although someone had to help iirc (not intended to cause offence~)

I think you would need a yard
-
Ive just remembered another one, "Dont whistle at table, or you'll get a mad wife" Tried it this evening, its absolutely bang on.
-
If you are using a cordless, then go for the hole cutter/tank cutter type of drill, keep it slow (80 feet per second) and cool with wd40, should go through with a coupe of good batteries. (What I meant to say was the cutter that looks like a hacksaw in a circle)

1 cubic metre of stacked roundwood when split into logs will occupy 0.8 cu m if stacked or 1.4 cu m in a heap
-
Down here in kent, some estates sell off "cants". Although I havent seen it recently, there used to be auctions of Chestnut Underwood. From and owners point of view, considering the relatively small return, they would be wanting to sell to a reliable cutter. If I were looking for some wood to cut, I would pop my contact/qualifications/ and insurance details on a piece of paper and drop it around to any farm/estate in the area. youll soon get a call

Does the label give a timing for glyphos these days? Some hazy memories of it not being recommended after August? Does not mean it wont work
-
I have registered as a self supplier (because we are using a fair amount of our own wood), which I think lets me off the reporting bit, but I will need a producer registration if I want to chip all the arb arisings. I havent had the energy to tackle that online form filling nightmare yet. Does anyone else find the terminology a bit vague? Has the website improved since it was launched?

It makes quite a difference, :001_smile:well thats what I tell the girls
