Agree about Dune I like sci-fi but never rated Stars Wars or Star Trek Like Aliens, Predator Robocop, Demolition Man ,Total Recall Starship Troopers. Fav quote from Aliens: They Mostly Come At Night… Mostly.......
  5. Im not questioning all grazing just if his dramatic claims about mob grazing/holistic grazing reversing deserts are true & backed up properly scientific studies. Its something I studied yrs ago in uni and his ideas about desertification & stock densities go against the mainstream view.
  6. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/georgemonbiot/2014/aug/04/eat-more-meat-and-save-the-world-the-latest-implausible-farming-miracle https://www.theguardian.com/sustainable-business/2014/aug/19/grazing-livestock-climate-change-george-monbiot-allan-savory im not sure who is right seems likely politics is clouding the science of both sides....
  7. Thy do a chainsaw same 2x18v also but doesn't cut as fast as the stihl apparently but probably be ok for hegdelaying.
  8. Same woods % now as 1350 in England? Suppose majority of deforestation % happend with stone axes in the neolithic. ?

Says 3.0kw https://www.arboristsite.com/community/threads/new-550xp-mark-ii.328395/ & some bloke cutting up a fake tree in second vid ?
  16. Stere

    Petrol mix

    Stihl has 3 grades of oil so by decent do you mean Ultra the expensive one?
  17. Stere

    Best axes.

    Stubai & mueller both have a good range of axes alot of different patterns. http://stubai.com/index.php/en/forestrytools http://www.mueller-hammerwerk.at/en/categorie-forest-axes.html
  18. So £200 pounds for a one day course to learn how to talk to others on a job? Not sure this is something a course can teach more down to peoples personalities?
  19. Im impressed by how sharp his tools are, billhook one swipe to go though the hazel stakes The bit where he is cutting the hedge at the end with the slasher looks nearly as fast as a petrol hegde trimmer...
  20. Why not timber house on stilts/pillars? To expensive?
  21. Hygeine hypothesis, maybe east german kids played outside more so exposed to more: "infectious agents " https://www.nhs.uk/news/pregnancy-and-child/growing-up-with-a-dog-reduces-childhood-asthma-risk/
  22. How about theese bonfires: ?
  23. Will the ebay one bend like a banana? Haven't used one since did the c31/c32 This bison looks fancy: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Bison-Profiline-Felling-Lever-With-Cant-Hook-Prefessional-Made-in-Germany-/223283400391
  24. I think this a simple 30 min job. Step ladder, silky, pry bar, & loppers, cut all ivy round trunk, just leave rest above & it will drop off on its own eventually or am a missing something? Try this first & if it all doesn't die then so what though probably 90% will, & you can always go back to the tree again etc if some rogue piece has rooted in a hollow & stays alive or just leave that.... Or if you want to make big job out of it spend ages removing it all...... Beware ivy dust can be is nasty/itchy or maybe thats just me ....
