  2. Ha ha good thing you wasn't feeding the chipper "it was a tree dream luv I swears"
  3. That is very straight mate Conifer hedges ARE tress just planted close together don't forget
  4. Get a couple logs in that
  5. Just ordered a griffin case reading this thread cheers I'm a sucker for advertising
  6. thanks for replies i think i might give the woodboss a go see how it runs and stick the other on ebay (i'll keep you in mind tho wooded)
  7. do you use a metal detector? if not i rate the one rob d stocks always finding surprises its ace
  8. Inherited these two saws but not sure what to do with them the wood boss runs i dont know about the other one it looks like it would need a bit more love. should i flog them fix them or chuck em? the second saw i know used to have a disc cutter attachment which got thrown away. i dont know anything about older saws any info if they are any good would be appreciated they are in the way without being used at the moment.
  9. At a guess they were probably originally planted as boundary/wind brakes to a working farm as we back onto what is now a recreational field and the tree run across the bottom of the gardens in our road. So now they are our garden trees I would like to retain them as long as I can. I am concerned about dog walkers walking underneath the sun scorched branches that overhang the path the other side of our garden. There isn't any dead wood just squirrel damaged bark and now the sun scorch on some branches. If I remove these I feel I will cause further damage to the tree next to it due to sun scorch. would like to do what I can to stop any armillaria infection Sorry if that's badly written its a difficult one to explain
  10. What the hell is my wife doing in that pic!! Arrrrrgh!
  11. Huzzar!! And may the drink never run out!! Nice yews in the monolith pic too
  12. the laurel seems fine. as for the hornbeam i have a few reservations with from what i can tell they have been pollarded a long time ago and apart from the middle one they all have decay at the unions. I removed a largish section from the back of the larger first hornbeam about a year ago due to decay (the other side of the hedge is a pathway around a recreational field) but now i have left part of the tree to what looks like sun scorch the trees also have what i think is squirrel damage in alot of the crouch's of the branches. some small fungus is on the wound of the large section i removed. these trees have suffered some flush cuts by previous tree surgeons also. any advise on how to manage would be appreciated thanks
  13. Probably goes well with a deep fried marsbar
  14. Maybe people oop north have been clearing up their leaves rigorously
  15. Looking in my fungi on trees (aa booklet) I can see the ring on the stalk How far can it spread? I have live hornbeam further down the hedge Does it effect laurel?
  16. What law is that?
  17. spoon and duke
  18. this was in my garden poking out from under the laurel an old hornbeam stump is decaying away in there used the fungus app to ident (thanks steve) i only know a handfull of fungus i take it this is collybia fusipes (spindle shank) ?
  19. Tell us what happens when you eat it
  20. Are you thrusting that tree over? That's skill silky
  21. Plenty of drama on other threads
  22. Your enthusiasm is what I'm sure a lot of us will miss mate
  23. I very much like those justme Good wood nice an simple letting it talk for itself
  24. err.. I would say its bad practice and unprofessional let alone it looks awful when you see spiked stems when there was no need for it I wouldn't want to cause any extra damage however small it was thought that's what being an arborist is all about Thanks for pointing out what "real tree work" is tho I'll sleep better
  25. Ok without knowing any info on the tree it's hard to say But if it was a healthy tree that the customer just wanted reduced But if for Longevity and ecological reasons for the tree then
