Seems a real shame to chip all that nice seasoned firewood

Iv'e swaped panels round on mine to make multi colour saws. Like a car with a different colour bonnet.

To much for any local "log golbins" wanting free firewood to handle?

I was looking at them before & saw this on ebay: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Minidumper-Raddumper-Kipper-Dumper-Waldkarre-LUMAG-MD-500-Allrad-TRANSPORTER/112754858368?epid=1704707519&hash=item1a40b69980:g:uzcAAOSw-8paW3Nf No idea if it is any good.

Comes with various backpack batteries like you can get for sthil that cost loads The trimmer on the conny hegde looks impressively fast.

If you win the lottery: This bacho one looks good: https://www.heamar.co.uk/stahlwille-hand-tools/72513-bahco-bcl131-cordless-chainsaw-7314150300204.html

How come the RHS says for major work on an overgrown hedge cut in in winter if wounds heal best in summer? I always thought winter prunning was best? https://www.rhs.org.uk/advice/profile?PID=398

So its all going here? ? http://www.estover.co.uk/sandwich-chp/

Pea sticks ? Faggots Dead hedge habitat stacks Or just burn or chip is alot faster No money in sweet chesnut coppice products or owners just not bothered? I'd say nearly 100% of the hazel coppices local are not managed at all, but I thought chesnut coppice produced some more valuable products so they were actively managed.

There was a section on countryfile about it in france. Seems quite radical compared to the UK.

Why is the stream toxic?

Aldi are selling paddling pools, though it would be good way to store water for the veg garden, connected up to the water butts overflow.... https://www.aldi.co.uk/intex-12-foot-metal-swimming-pool/p/082746231914400 7000 litres of water storage for £90.

Could you also parcel up and resell as smaller lots & make a load of money that way?

Alot of wildfires in different countries all over europe, some of the worst ever recorded covering huge areas. 30,000 hectares in Sweden. https://www.smh.com.au/world/europe/europe-burns-as-climate-change-fuels-forest-fire-danger-extremes-20180725-p4zteh.html Probably going to get more common with climate change.

But standing deadwood its good habitat. ?

How come its not got Dutch elm disease?

How about thoose US aspen grooves that cover 100 acres.

Never heard a hinge called a "ducks bill"

Seems a big difference between the cheapo husky battery 120i & the expensive 536Li battery one. Chain speed is twice as fast on the expensive one, so does it cut twice the speed? Must have a more powerful electric motor in it hence why it costs over double the price. Weight is lighter also

No point imo underplanting new trees under shade from sycamore, unless a decent size clearing is made as they won't grow well. Never seen a hazel or hawthorn surrounded in centre of a wood by other taller trees than didn't look half dead as they are out completed for light. Hazel all locally grow in woods that are ususally a monculture 80% hazel maybe with a few larger "standard" trees dotted about not mixed in surrounded with taller trees. Im no expert though but have seen alot of money wasted imo on planting schemes were 100's of trees are planted in shade of larger trees and majority just die or never grow. Also even when a wood is full of natural regen why do they insist on planting new trees with plastic guards. (Different maybe if you have deer etc & no natural regen) Imo best would be just maybe too thin the sycamore & selectively weed out sycamore regen (leaving any regen form other species) to stop them spreading more. If you did clear sycmore & replant with other species would the stumps need to be poisoned or removed (expensive), as if not removed they would out grow and shade out, the new trees planted (or I suppose you could keep cutting them back repeatedly)

I thought you were joking about the leaf blower ticket... https://www.nptc.org.uk/assets/documents/8da36e6b6ba3489298780e1d93aa3453.pdf Madness haha Better stick to a rake until its mastered thouh rakes can be dangerous ?

Zip line with plastic trug for logs? Petzl Tandem Double Pulley

Great pics looked up about Hap Johnson & this pic came up ? Is that a hydraulic saw?

Some info: http://www.oregonproducts.eu/site/products/biotrim/Biotrim_flyer_en.pdf So is turns to compost or microplastics im still unsure? EDIT> actually says its eaten by mircoorganisms Some of the "eco" tree shelters just have less UV stabalizer in them so break up faster sounds worse than non eco ones imo...

Intetrested what you will you use it for? Transporting 1000 tonnes of brash is going to be a bit of a hassle, will be massive volume........
