looks like it would take a morning just to open the gate! In the book of words pasture topping and setsaide topping both are listed at ££13.20 per acre, bearing in mind pasture would be grazed off before hand and setaside would be in 50 acre fields but quite heavy going, 6 years worth of mole hills and you have got to be talking £250 for the job, add on your brushcutter round the boundry...

Vast amount of Arb timber going spare. Rugby

Could you speak to the boffins so that Avatars appear as "current at the time of postings" I thought I had had one too many Stellas, and then it turned into a bird! -
Best method for transplanting trees other than spade.
farmer rod replied to num83r13's topic in General chat
you can either hire in the proper guys which is probably the most reliable, but I moved one that size by digging round it and shovelling it up in the telehandler bucket, any success is more likely down to aftercare! -
I would have thought you would want to hammer from the cab, how do other guys do it? I have a knocker on our telehandler, if we have lots to do then I have a man on the ground, otherwise fairly useable from the seat. Rod

Mark, do you think Arbtalk is ready for a "Show us your Fridge" thread, outside only of course, inside might be too personal?
-
So let me get this straight, I was spraying blue stuff and someone insisted I needed Plastic Protection and sold it to me, but as I just wanted to be a Smurf, Im due compensation:confused1:
-
:lol:

If you dont have the correct ppi you can get a job as a Smurf

We had some brash chipped for our boiler, G30 chips have been no problem, came in dry after about a year seasoning, but it was hardwood brash, mainly ash and alder. However it took about twice as long to produce our requirement, so you can expect it to cost a bit more to chip. You cant get that hairy stuff through the machine at the same rate as 9 inch conny poles. In our case I was happy to do it, because otherwise we would have spent time pushing up fires.

Dont go bonkers, take a deep breath and ask yourself " What price would I like to do this job for" and quote that and stick to it. A word of caution, new customers who want you to jump through hoops are quite often dodgy, so ask around.

I have to admit that contrary to my previous assertions about Marmite, those little blighters are impervious to anything!
-
Im a believer in Marmite, supposedly if you eat plenty of it the the bugs leave you alone, I love it an my Mrs gets shredded by anything with six legs. So do you love it or hate it?

Watching the trees get hairy It's not very pretty I tell thee Walking through woods is quite scary It's not very sensible either I predict a reduction....

Thats the one, but our local ones seem to have bigger teeth:biggrin:

I am ready to be corrected, but if its next to a right of way or borders a domestic curtilage , then its ok, otherwise, no

Hi Donk, have you chosen a model for your job?
-
It looks like a control cable outer, so motorcycle brake cable, car handbrake cable, outboard motor steering cable etc, depending on how industrial you want it (or how long)

Here is a picture

I have a stack of firewood, cut Aug14, for sale, it is in a field so access is not strictly roadside. I was intending to chip it for the boiler, but we currently have a surplus, hence its for sale.
-
We use about 50 tonnes of chip per year and our best investment is the shed to put it in, it is fairly easy to get chippers in and the bigger the better
-
thats quite small for chip, or is it a typo?
