Hi All, any recommendations for a green waste location for approx 200m3 of chip? Has to be licenced and the chip isn't graded so no good for biomass.

Thanks!

Here's something, if it's self employment just look what's near you as you'll have the network of people for everything else near by. If it's employment you want, wait until you have a job. Then you'll know where the work is...... It's a small world!

Canada!!

For the whole job I'd go practicality Browns.

Plant a mix of Alder/oak. Alder for first 5 years then add your bigger oaks. Use the alder as a nurse/fire wood crop.

Rob d the master of Sugi might be a good start!

Sorry I should have pointed out that the implement first has to be mounted in the conventional manner, but we utilised 3 hook ends to make this easy.

 

 

 

Then as described the Engcon Ec-Oil will allow me to fit and remove the whole unit in around 30 seconds from the cab, connecting both hydraulics and electrics.

 

 

 

If I can find a Timberwolf PTO Chipper for it, then it should only take a few minutes to switch from Winch to Chipper with the hook ends helping.

 

It's a very handy setup, and the Engcon system gets the best from it.

 

 

 

The Tajfun is the model with 540 shaft for Rear tractor mounting and 1000 shaft reversed for Front Tractor mounting which makes it very versatile.

 

 

 

I have a good friend on Motorway work, and I am planning a bigger unit of this type for him to run a rotavator on the end of his machine for finishing the topsoil on verges and batters.

 

This should enable him to place the soil slightly more roughly with the bucket teeth, and then having a rotavator under his Tiltrotator, bring the soil up to a suitable finnish for seeding.

 

He could even switch to a fertiliser spinner to place the seed if he wished?

 

It really opens up quite a few options?

Ranskill hire has a new stone burier, leveller, seeder gizmo which goes on a 3pl. It could save hours topsoiling. Great for shifting but the 210 I was in last week was not the machine for levelling and finishing.

We had that on the harvester crane. Downside is that you do have to check they work and not just over grease one part because the line is blocked or broken. Oh and the fun of the big tub of grease which always makes a mess changing it.

The ones I've used have been 4-5 standard grease cartridges each going to specific points with its own ram dispensing different amounts to where it's needed. Worked well.

At manufacturer stated hours. Pump till you see movement then stop! Auto grease is a worthwhile investment!

Morning break, banana & cuppa. Lunch a sandwich, apples. If I'm hungry another banana. Another cuppa. Water throughout the day. It's as simple as you want. need energy = eat. Thirsty = drink. That doesn't mean stop when ever you want but in the woods have some nibbles/fluids with you at all times. Especially if it's hot/cold/wet you need it.

Blade in the direction of pull. Get a bucket on the opposite side. Dig both in. Maybe tracks off the ground. Strop around the blade. If you can, get the blade or bucket against a stump.... See what happens. Let us know.

Take the day off and go to the beach, simples

That's my plan!!

There you go Jon!

Hi John you could try the British Hen welfare trust they rehome thousands of ex battery hens tel no 01884 860084 south molton devon just off the m5 j27 and up the north devon link road about 8 miles from motorway junction.

 

thanks chris

We've just got 6 from our local BHWT collection. 4 are laying now. They're doing a great job with the slugs! In 2 days they had their instincts sorted and were going away at night.

Work is on the notts/Derbyshire border. Base is near j29 m1

Timber or plants?

Not that day, the Spean's a cracking river. That was at 5 pipes. There's six!

Think this is about 50cumecs

The river looks pretty tame immediately below the dam. Where is it? Looks kinda Swedish.

Happens in the public sector too.... I was beaten on a Rhodi clearance job. The winning quote was around £350ha cut, stacked, roots pulled out. Let em at it!

Hi ALEX Come to the Somerset levels when we have the Dutch pump saying they will do 80 m³ a second thanks John

I can't remember the exact figure, think the Olympic slalom course with 3/4 pumps is 15/20 cumecs. Zambezi was 250 when I paddled that. Ganges was around 100.

An easy visualisation is to imagine it in IBC crates.

I'd love to see the size of the pump that sends 80 cumecs. Send the pipe over to the dart in Devon!
