  1. Weeping birch with a corkscrew trunk . Loose it now ! ?
  2. Out of interest why is snedded wrong ? ( I say that also )
  3. Have you had it long ? If not just take it back to B+Q or where ever and they give you a new one I have heard ....
  4. When its " de limbed " ( you can say de branched if you want ) it is a stick .?
  5. Stubby

    Oak

    One for " rate my hinge " ? ?
  6. I know life is a compromise but , .....I don't think you can have a view and a wind break . If you want trees with gaps and not a hedge ( you can see over ) You will end up crown lifting the trees to get the view and the wind will come whistling through the gaps . If you make a proper shelter belt you will stop the wind but see fuck all .
  7. If one drops and injures or kills I don't think anyone would care if it was called a limb or a branch to be fair .
  8. What if he put his hands up and paid the fine ( whatever it is ) like other people have had to do ?
  9. Another possibility is low compression . If it runs fine untill it gets up to temp it may be a low compression issue in as much once the it gets hot and the clearances open up it wont support combustion .
  10. Glad to hear your dog is better . They trust you unconditionally and you have to do your best for them . ?
  11. How you doing Stefan . Not heard from you in a coons age !
  12. Yep . I used to be of the opinion that 20% is 20% ( so why pay extra for kiln dried ) but its how you get there . I am convinced that 20% genuine kiln dried burns fine but should it get wet from poor stacking / storage it then is harder to dry again than air dried if the same thing happened . Something to do with the cells in the wood after kilning .
  13. I have felled , I dunno , lots and not once did anyone come up and offer me dry fire wood for the sticks ?
  14. Economic but to the point . ?
  15. Not going to investigate the engine ?
  16. Some of the best fire wood is dead standing Elm . Love it .
  17. Do you have a barn full then Khriss ? ?
  18. Like Planet of the Apes and that ?
  19. Thought I might have a curry tonight .
  20. Ah , yes . I was presuming it was a floating rim when I made my reply .
