  1. Is it that he is wearing Camo and no one will find him when some thing go's wrong.
  2. Very nice may be Father Christmas left it at wrong address.
  3. The beech tree I'am talking about is owned by 2 brothers how are like the chuckle brothers, so I will stear them in the right direction to what is best for the tree.
  4. Have had a talk to customer and explained how bad it is, we are going to reduce and thin out the tree so it can stay there a bit longer. And monitor it and if it needs to come down then take it down. Many thanks to all replys Paul.
  5. Willow pollarding it was cold and wet;
  6. Picture 2; WS then a crown WS don't now if it's a royal crest.
  7. Hi Hedgesparrow; The first one is made by William Swift not Wilkinson and the second one only has 1941 stamped in it.
  8. Got given to me by a customer a will ago; first one is single sided edge, and the second is single edged on the back cutting edge.
  9. Where are you based. Clone biomass down on Essex / Suffolk border have got a web site.
  10. Some people convert veg planters, may be easy to start with or rob bits off one. The only problem with off setting is the pull on the tractor and keeping straight. May find you have to cultivate a strip first so there's less side pull.
  11. Theoben aren't a cheap air rife:thumbup: If you can't see it you can't shoot it.
  12. Thanks Nick, will see if I can get a close look at a pair
  13. Stihl lopper any good just seen 800 anvil ones at F R Jones.
  14. SMK cheapy on my Air arms S410 Allso on CZ 22 rim fire. Leupold on my Sako .243. A mate of mine has just bought a Doctor scope and rates it highly.
  15. Corona aren't bad had a pair 3 years. Was told when I bought then if I brake them bring them back now worn out. You can get replacement parts.
  16. Thought I had finnished Friday, got a phone call at 12 today A tree near the road had moved went and looked, sweet chestnut root plate lifting. Got some help to site and got it down back after Christmas to clear up. Finnished at 3 o'clock.
  17. Ditto. Low positioned rope will pull quicker than higher.
  18. Brings back memories of when I use to pull trees for my old boss with a Bedford RL.
  19. If you use a heavy enough cable just the weight once pulled up will pull a tree over with out pulling. Remember on some big horse chests put a winch rope up and went to pull up and the cable didn't even got off the ground and the tree came over by It's roots.
  20. That's right. You need a lot of ballast on tractor when pulling trees, or redirect with pulley to eliminate steep pull up on tractor.
  21. Got a 20mmx50m Polysteel bull rope I bought a year ago used it on 10 biggish sycamores the other month all where leaning back over garage block. Redirected with a pulley do to no room for tractor on trees came over. You can allways hold with tirfor or similar to stop them going back and pull with tractor. Shorten rope with bowlen.
  22. Have a look on Woodnet allways some one got some.
  23. You will get there in the end. Look at what you leaving not what your taking, Have a good idear how the tree will look when finished before starting, and a have a good growndy.
