  1. Why not makita as I though you had the 18v batteries?
  2. Radmore Tucker is local to you?
  3. I have a husky 525rx for stuff like that. Light and very good anti vibe and fairly cheap Battery strimmer's are ok but don't have very good run times & will cost more for decent ones but worth considering if you already have a load of compatible batteries. Bigger strimmer will do the job fine also but heavier.
  4. You could try asking in the coppice FB group Log into Facebook WWW.FACEBOOK.COM Log into Facebook to start sharing and connecting with your friends, family, and people you know. As woodlots looks moribund
  5. Why does that grease have a seal pic on tin but now you say it does not contain rendered clubbed seals that's false advertising!
  6. I don't get why you use briquettes also as are they not more expensive? Are they more like coal so you don't have to feed fire so often? Id think hornbeam would burn just as long as a briquette? Romania seem to have a lot more forest area than he UK thus I assume its a lot cheaper to get firewood. Some Softwood is always handy also to get a fire going fast,
  7. Did you see this chipper that look similar? Tracked Bio-Shredder with Combustion Engine CIP 120-S CINGO - Zanon WWW.ZANON.IT The CIP 120-S CINGO allows shredding different types of material such as branches and foliage, reducing the volume of waste by 5/6 times. Not sure if they are really made in Italy as claimed as they seems too cheap? Re badged Chinese? Also there is a Ukrainian branch logger one if chip size isn't important
  8. To actually replace 3 mature oak trees would be near impossible or be a 7 figure sum i reckon. (I am guessing on a minimum of say 50yrs old in age as the definition of mature for oaks) Kind of thing is best left to billionaires, Tree makes sea voyage for Georgia park project WWW.BBC.CO.UK Enormous tulip tree uprooted and moved to billionaire ex-prime minister's new park. Maybe they left the stumps and they will sprout like the sycamore gap tree?
  9. Stake looks like it needs removing and & having slate round trees isn't a good idea in general imo. If you really want to max out the crop remove the slate add a mulch round base and through pruning or pegging them down try and get the branches spaced out & make them more horizontal or at least 45 degrees as your tree looks to have a lot of vertical branches which tends to fruit less. Poor blossom but a good crop kind of sounds odd to me as to get a good crop you need good blossom. Also what compatible pollination partner apple trees are growing nearby may also affect fruiting. On a side note that staking pic in the RHS book isn't best practice imo better to do like in the photo below. I think if a stake is attached lower down a trunk as trees develop roots better with some trunk movement is its beneficial imo for root growth . My rule of thumb is attach a stake no higher than 2/3 up a trunk from ground to crown base often lower, RHS book pic looks too high and restrictive and not ideal also staking diagonally avoids the root ball. Also the rootstock type combined with apple variety with govern overall tree max size/vigor and its growth habit and how to approach on any pruning. From the picture looks to be on fairly vigorous root stock size hence the growth..
  10. This has all the weights listed UC030G-PS.pdf There is also a new smaller and lighter 40v topper model uc031g
  11. Looks abit of a boat anchor if used with the bigger batteries esp Makita - Product Details - UC030GZ 40Vmax XGT Brushless 50cm 20" Chainsaw WWW.MAKITA.CO.NZ Makita Power Tools. The preferred brand of power tool to the trade
