  1. Thanks all - reported (it's a park tree).
  2. Seen on a park tree (probably sycamore) yesterday. Tree is alive but has an old wound running vertically, and the fungal body is growing from under loose-ish bark. Doesn't seem to match any pictures I can find! Many thanks in advance.
  3. Thanks v much all, will investigate…
  4. ...please. For removing rubber tree ties/straps/spacers that are too tight on young trees. Must fold & fit in a large pocket/small bag. Ideas please? Thanks.
  5. Thanks for the ideas & info. We have contractors already to deal with the removal thanks John. Just want to ensure we make good use of it.
  6. Hope someone can tell me what the wood from a really big old Lebanese Cedar would be as useful for? I understand that cedar is good for both outdoor and indoor furniture (am thinking of maybe a couple of outdoor seats for long term use) but the tree is having to be felled because of its age (not diseased as far as we know, just in decline and starting to drop branches). Does the age of the wood affect its usefulness? If we make seats we can choose to lie the trunk section down & simply cut the seat shape out (rustic look) , or have it "sliced" on site and made into something like a more conventional bench. Any ideas for uses for the rest of it? (there will be a lot!) We are keen to keep as much as possible within the school grounds/buildings or use it for Tech projects. Hope this is a good place to ask - if not, please redirect me! Many thanks
