  1. So in and around my home town pretty much every ash of any size has been felled in the last month it's changed the outlook of some areas ,you don't realise how many ash there were till they're gone .I understand ash dieback is taking hold ,but this just seems drastic. I understand there's no stopping the infection, but it's quite saddening to see all these ash just disappear so soon
  2. Horrible looking things as Harvey b says just a defender by name , look like a jeep
  3. Well done mick, a hornbeam will tolerate getting hit hard
  4. Why did you buy another forst, if you were already having issues with the first one ???
  5. Tipmaster are quality and very expensive
  6. Think you got your sentences round the wrong way there mick
  7. No he won't, because in the next two days I won't be shifting that ash tree , I'll be home by 3 at the latest and after wages earn't more than they will
  8. Oh well , from 1200 to 3500 at least the client knows he could do a bit of haggling for cash now.
  9. All well and good, but we're all running business's, it's not a competition,
  10. So saying a decent climber would get it down in day and charging 12 -1400 ,yes you would ,but the trees worth double that , and that price is just devaluing the industry we're all trying to make a living from
  11. Surely if everyone had that train of thought ( better not replant because ganoderma was present in the vicinity ) then not many trees would get planted.
  12. Yeah it certainly took some Time , I did have a bit of ago with a sanding disc on a drill, I then put the drill in a vice and screwed the bowl to the disc and sanded by hand with the bowl spinning, but they're the first to I've made so pretty pleased with the result.
  13. No lathe, just a ms 150 using the tip of the bar and then sanded them and yes birch it is , amazed at the colour they ended after a good oiling
  14. So I made these with a 150 and dug the centre's out and then a lot of sanding ,surprised by the colour they ended .any ideas what timber ? I know, I took it down
