    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

    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.

    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.

    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

    Intetesting. I think the main impact to landscape will be loss of hegderow trees (ash the most common one locally) as woodland will regenerate other species replacing the ash, but the hegderow trees won't come back as any new trees are flailed. Thats want happened after dutch elm, massive reduction in number of hegderow trees, countryside just looks more bleak since with miles of hegdes with fewer trees along them.

    Some EU money gets redistributed to poorer countries & regions of countries for development projects. As UK overall is richer than places like Romania etc less comes back than put in. Click net contribution: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/8036097.stm#start On the other hand it has helped poorer bits of the UK like the North & Wales etc that otherwise wouldn'r of got funding from a UK goverment that tends to favour the SE of the country hence forcasts saying certain parts of the UK will be more ngeatively affected by brexit. EU generally seems more progressive with regards enviromental protection policies than the UK goverment is This has meant the EU grants for enviro stuff.....
