Pine martens supposedly help alot controlling grey numbers dunno why they don't breed them and realease all over? Probably annoy game keepers.... Greys are like triffids i reckon need to eliminate every last one or you will be back to sqaure one in a couple of yrs no matter how many you kill . NZ have a plan to kill every single invasive possum rat and stoat by by 2050 Five new trapping tools unveiled to achieve Predator Free 2050 mission | Stuff.co.nz WWW.STUFF.CO.NZ Gas and nail gun technology are being deployed in the fight to eradicate rats, possums and stoats. Anglesey being an island has zero greys (and zero deer) only because they had yrs of work and funding to kill every single grey and contsantly monitor for any getting back across the water as some greys do sometimes either get across the bridges or are re - released by public. But that won't work so well elsewhere....

Hope the soil ain't a heavy clay. 😬 Very hard work to make a go of market gardening and labour intensive for little return as food is so cheap. Only places i know who do it manage to get by by running courses and free labour from woofers etc.

Whats the plan for the fields rent them out to a farmer ? How are you planning 2 remove any logs cut etc?

Leaving some Ivy and deadwood fallen trees are good things for nature etc, felling some of the healthy trees are easier to process into firewood... ea4300 is a good saw for £319.

Is this all on the same saw or different ones? Im having the same issues with an ea4300. Its oiling fine im using rapeseed oil atm . One tank of fuel always lasts just abit less than one oil tank which is over 3/4 empty on refueling Bars outside hardly look worn that much before the inside wearing. Both on dolmar and an oregon bar 15". Using dolmarr and oregon chains. Have burred a few drivelinks throwing chains on blackthorn might be connected. But filed the burs on them before reusing so they ran smooth round the bar..... Bars groove regulary cleaned out. Wear is causing cuts to start curving to one side on large diameter logs.

Think treee looks good as it is but id cut /coppice all stems rather than single out certain ones

Looks like a Humbolt notch makes it jump forward off the stump better.

What cut did they use and how much lighter is your wallet?
