Ive just had a contractor in to chip my fuel with a drum chipper, which was quite impressive. Not being very up on these things could you tell me what sort of shredder would people use?

Auxilliary circuit was the word I was looking for, my digger is plumbed for a breaker and stops if you accidentally push the button on the stick.

Al check that there are no service spools that are jammed, ie if it has a pin lock for the attachment which is still operating Rod

Hi Deb, what quantities are you looking to move on? Rod

does anyone from their experience and observation think that it a grinding wheel working too hot can not only pick up steel in its pores, but could also push bits of stone into the steel workpiece. Personally I have never used a grinder on a chain, but I can see by the animated discussion here that results are variable.

in the golden olden days when we used to burn stubble, the brigade would turn up all the time, they got the same for a callout to a well controlled stubble fire as someones house. They did get grumpy if we set fire to the electric poles though!

Tony, what does an elephant hawk moth live on, I found one last night walking up a bit of old stirling board, but I cant believe that is natural habitat, when I went back for a photo it had gone. Impressive though. Rod

I have one I was given as a present, thought it was a gimmick at first but I used to split apple ring all winter for years with it and I still use it. The dogs stop it from sticking in the wood which I think is the most exhausting aspect of the job. Using it one handed gives me tennis elbow for some reason.

If you can have a fire then get something with a big muckfork on, I have a telescopic and you can drive through bramble six feet high, it rips it out the ground and they all lock on the fork, stand by for an awesome burn up

How does that compare with genetically modified organisms, introducing things that haven even existed on the planet has got to be more nutty than just bringing them from Holland

Catweazel, I may be interested in the chip, but it needs to be the right spec. I will pm my numbers. Rod

On the basis we are looking for the best way to do this:- 500 metres long poplar windbreak, (there is probably more) which is to be pollarded. I would guess its 40 yrs grown plus. it certainly looks massive but I havent yet been along to look at it, so Im working from memory. Alongside an arable field so it will be cut August and need to be moved straight away. I would need to stack it for a year at my farm, to be chipped in the following summer. Im 17 miles away, but I do have some ground just down the road (say 2m) where it could be stacked. My home farm is not brilliant for artics, but eight wheelers no problem. Does poplar go soft if stacked for more than a year? Any bright ideas welcomed Rod
