having seen and tinkered with the yellow perils. i would stear the Atlantic ocean from them. but as good as the Chinese copy saws. stick with husky,sthil,oleo-mac. you know it will last and work when you want it to not when it wants to

saw the first bumble of the season today and first jasper on Tuesday. plus skylarks singing on hill i was working on nice to hear them. downside found a injured buzzard been hit by car took to vet but sadly unable to save it shame nice birds still saved it being pecked by rooks.

good plants is murrey Mc Clean abingdon very good plants. getting very near the end of planting season. i plant by the mtr so cost plants plus bit for sorting out plants and my time.

if its double planting native hedge do 5 to the mtr boot apart. depends what the plants cost plus guards and canes. looking at aprox £3 for 5 plants guards £1 canes 50p theres £4.50 a mtr then your time how many mtrs can you plant in a day. poss 4 days maybe less. there are those who plant a lot who will say what they can do in a day,

if you can find one toro, JD, Honda. depends what your budget is how big are the gardens would a ride on with a collector do the job.

hi brassraptor good to see another cutter on board getting quite a number now and good to see the hedges laid. got to finish off this hazel hedge washed out today. so will crack on tomorow. then as you say that be it for year untill september, but if any cutters local will be at the countryside day at sparsholt in mAY believe its the 18th we will be demonstrating hedgelaying so if you want to come along for a cuppa and a chat more than welcome. good day out.

how much more will they extract in stealth tax. woodchip is woodchip and if it has been from a felling then is that not sustainable. whats going to happen to those who take as much woodchip they can get from tree surgeons will they all need to be approved to offload. and pay to have another permit to dump there chip or will there be a loophole for this.

£60+ per day longer you have it cheaper it is i hire one for a week can get a 2 tonne kubota for £150. do not get it sometimes smaller the digger dearer to hire. so normaly get a 1.5 to 2 tonne machine more grunt so can do a lot more work than with a small one. there good the 0.8 o 1 tonne brigade if acess is tight. i do not know if you have in plant insurance but a no of the plant people will not hire without it. the tool hire who can be dear do have insurance as extra if it gets nicked. so i go to the plant people to get good rates only cost me £90 for year for insurance. if using them a fair bit save yo money in the long term

i have used helicoils in mowers etc had no problem with them. do a good job

when is it and were is capel manor please

+1 looks like larch.

get hold of g,day spruce. look at job price it up you help pulling brash out. learn how to lay hedge. never know may get more work off it. can ask g day spruce for a hand your both winners. and never say a hedge is past it. number on here have laid 30ft stuff which is trees. but lays ok. let us all know how you get on

will not look a mess just need someone with a bit of experiance in laying old hedge and using chain saw. it wil lay give it a couple of years and will look good leave and it will just go out of hand be flailed to death and end of a nice old hedge. yo have had some posts take them up and go and look and price it up. be worth it and so satisfying to see it done

no nothing about chippers but Jenson Chippers up sombourne hampshire. seen a few around about saw 5 monday looked like a convention of tracked chippers.

watched programme very scary for those who would not know. the chain brake just breaking so chain still going round. big business 800 tonnes of fake goods found

nice job matt you get some interesting and cracking jobs to do. my week so far clearing brambles from bridleway and picking up the fly tip one weely bin full of free newspapers.college prospectos lazy s**s could not be bothered to deliver them so threw them in brambles. welding gauntlets and chain saw helmet with sheild down to stop being ripped to pieces. painting benches, and putting up a village sign. had to dig in solid chalk to get to depth or would need a step to look at notice board. doing a pagoda so will get photos before and after

you need what a chap down the roads got a MOD artic truck and trailor on tracks goes anywhere he drives it over part of a pond thats silted up. never get stuck.

+1 for charnwood very good stoves made on the isle of wight new not cheap from £700 up saw a good one they have just brought out has a hotplate on top lift lid boils a kettle or can griddle on it.

Digga what a cracking job one of the best laid hedges i have seen and to have had to hand ball all the stuff 700mtrs across a muddy field. if anyone should get a medal its you. cracking job. Dorset yours looks good aswell some very good cutters on this site. will upload the hazel hedge. not on my phone so waiting for them to be sent to me. can we have a sub site for hedgelaying and associated skills please.

£110 FOR PANELS days work for two men to collect panels take out old ones and put on truck. £400 for labour= 510 not what icharge. am i near only 40 pound out not bad so charging £30 per hour for 8 hour day.

same all around with grants going less hedges being laid. if hedgelayer is not working then coppcing is not being done it has a knock on. but its not just hedges friend is a coppicer has had no orders for thatching spars this year. and only doing a few hurdles. so quiet all around. and they give out grants to manage woodlands but missed out hedges.they want woodlands managed but hazel woods are becoming neglected and falling into disrepair. need a rethink by the forestry commission's on the grants

fed up with the price of LPG and being held to ransome by the supplier. looking for a cooker that burns wood. not a raburn,aga,esse to heavy as have suspended floors and a arm and a leg. ideal two ovens with the normal hotplates on top.for what it costs in lpg in a year its got to be cheaper as logs are free

thank you for info though the ist of march was for all things to do with native hedges. so have to end of march

official date is 1st of march when birds are supposed to start nesting then the 1st of September. but if already on a hedge you can see what is going on but things are budding so couple of weeks and that be it for the year. apart from demo hedges with dummy hedges. got one to do this year. in may.

how long is a piece of string. how long is hedge, how old is thorn. what diameter is stems. blackthorn loves to knarl itself round each other so needs cutting out to get each stem on its own. what style cheshire. depends what local cutters lay Midland, or welsh style. if midland and was a good hedge £5 per mtr to lay £2.50 per mtr for stakes and binders £1.50 for cutting out and clearing brash extra if to be carted away. two cutters members of NHLS. may be willing to allow you to help lay in return for the lead. good way to learn hedgelaying with a experienced cutter. or if you can upload photo,s could well be willing to come up with a few of us and lay it. and can join in and learn to lay. let us have some more details and there is a no on this site who will help out how about it lads a weekend jolly in cheshire cutting with a few bears in the evening. im up for it Alan Yates.
