  1. Knackers ?
  2. Called arborflex sounded like a daft idea
  3. Wonder if they pruned that tree in background also looks quite neat?
  4. German Bison one for £22 https://www.amazon.co.uk/Bison-20-03-121202-Pickaroon-Handling-Tool/dp/B005F71TEO/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8
  5. Interesting looking ones in NZ http://www.timbersaws.co.nz/product/2870-forestry-thinning-kit OTT for UK carrying all that extra stuff around.......
  6. Makita ones https://www.powertoolworld.co.uk/brands/makita/makita-accessories/makita-carry-cases/makita-tool-belts-pouches
  7. 8 tone bags of woodchip (kind of surprised they bagged it up as bags cost money) 8 x £100 = £800 worth of woodchip & £50 worth of logs so job only cost £150 https://www.travisperkins.co.uk/Hallstone-Hardwood-Play-Chips-Bulk-Bag-0-6m³/p/215760
  8. Echo saws now also, bit pricey the "pro" version though they have cheaper one also "Pro" https://www.echo-tools.co.uk/products/battery-products/dcs-1600/ Will 50v has more torque? agianst 36v. Oddly the cheaper one is 58v
  9. I'd say unrealistic to expect alot more logs from 3 small trees. £1000 sounds alot of £ for three small trees that look like they could be felled from ground without any climbing in less than 30 minutes (Though maybe picture is deceptive) Are you saying they stole some of the logs? Also logs don't look freshly cut they look abit old? & why the left over brushwood if they also chipped alot of the logs?
  10. Back Door Santa
  11. From Googling about 15-20K I reckon
  12. If they are Type A or Type C class 1 2 or 3 surely important? ?
  13. Like the goggles 070 clone
  14. The "monster" 8lbs USA type one is here for £87 free postge to UK i think (added to basket & it didn't add postage etc.) IsoCore Builder's Axe XXL 8 lb/36" https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B078WFJDGR/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A3OSF850LCY46B&psc=1 Video review:
  15. EFAW F course had a video clip horror compilation Worse one was some guy bouncing around on a rope like a rag doll whlist being repeatedly crushed by a huge log that was being rigged down.
  16. Barbours chair wacked in head
  17. Disappointed in the x27 abit lightweight so have to use more force rather than using weight of head its ok for perfect logs with no knots It depends on type of wood neeeds splitting different woods suit difference type of axe. For best all rounder prefer a maul for anything really stubborn easier just to use chainsaw. Haven't tried a huge range of posh axes etc would have to use a load of different ones to decide on best abit obsessed with axes Want all theese for xmas ? ? WALDPONY Leveraxe X39 Helko Bruks Simplex maul
  18. http://www.timbersaws.co.nz/product/229-timbersaws-rami-lopper How come they use they for platation brashing in nz but not uk eu etc? Thought a chainsaw would be less work than a giant lopper, think of the arm workout after a few 1,000 cuts.... Thinking that they would be ideal for volunteer conservation work when chainsaws not allowed, clearing large rhody etc.
  19. Used a portek type one thought it was rubbish When cutting coppice I just attack a massive pile/bundle with the chain saw was alot faster.
  20. Dunno bout the shrub clump bark looks like cherry.
  21. So tree over 12ft need alpine tree surgeons? What is an alpine tree surgeon one thats being up Mont Blanc?
  22. Whar size saw would people recommend using on c32 only have a ea4300 think it will be underpowered in comparison to others on course may be using & don't want to overheat it making it struggle cutting big diameter stuff. I know is says 15" or 18" bar but they don't mention saw size. Thinking of getting the ea7900
  23. Maybe this for wegde pouch https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Hunting-Hiking-Military-Molle-Belt-Tactical-Paintball-Magazine-Dump-Pouch-Bag-uk/392188735864?_trkparms=aid%3D555018%26algo%3DPL.SIM%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20140122125356%26meid%3Dfd26651d54ff46909bc58b74e145e3c8%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D11%26sd%3D123474847533%26itm%3D392188735864&_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851
