  13. Why the ms241 not ms261? Think ms214 is silly price for a 40cc ms261 near the same price.
  14. Thanks excellent info shame there no whips around is it also due to the cultivars all being trade marked? Are you allowed to propagate them legally? EDIT see you mention this already soz. Seems a real shame TM stopping it
  15. Anyone bodged up wheels on a mower? Have an old mculloch that was junked as all wheels worn so bad they wooble and bind so it won't push anymore. Plastic has worn on the wheels against the axles (doesn't have bearings). Axles may of worn also, as used a digitial caliper and think axle standard is 1/2" but now they seem near 12mm? Shit wheel seems standard now for mowers as bearings or proper bushs than costr £2 each must be deeemd to expensive? Rest of mower in good condition new wheels cost £20 each axles £20 so thats £160 parts for a mower that was £260 new. So junk a mower coz wheel wooble... Thought might fit theese: Oil Filled Bronze Flange Bushes: Oilite Oil Filled Bronze Flanged Bushes SIMPLYBEARINGS.CO.UK But plastic wheels have no meat to drill our to 15mm
  16. Think it looks like english elm have an english elm hedge in the garden Can you buy theese resistant cultivars as whips fancy some but couldn't find any available only wych elm?

Only found one so far Alice Nero - Plastic free electric black kettle OTTONIFABBRICA.COM Electric black kettle in 18 10 stainless steel without plastic in contact with water. Equipped with removable stainless steel... Probablt over £100 with import costs from EU? Any kettle that lasts more than about 6 months would be a bonus and without crappy plastic. Getting fed up with the cheapo ones not lasting....

  21. Windblown or grew to the light? (Dense holly behind....?) Whats there prevaling wind direction?
  22. Yew can grow fast especially when young and untrimmed leader can do probalby near a ft a year. Dunno were the "yew is very slow growing" myth comes from, think its coz as a mature trimmed hedge its annual grow is often abit less than others but thats not a bad thing....
  23. They seem to extend a dense shallow mat of fiberous roots more than many other hedges like beech etc Box does also. Think that whats takes all the moisture and nutrients Some kind of root barrier may help....
