But a dumpy bag fulled on top of a proper wheelbarrow can carry loads more for the lighter large volume stuff like grass mowings leaves & hedge clippings. Its like a single wheeled sack trolley better for moving heavy stuff like boulders & large tree rootballs etc, but normal a sack trolley will also do that. So its niche is heavy loose stuff gravel i suppose but tipping gravel etc from a normal wheel barrow is easier than empting that I reckon.

Many saplings are completely dead apart from a few sprouts at base, many trees around 30yrs old age top of canopy twigs dead. Least visible signs on the 50yrs old plus trees though a few some are showing signs also. How fast will it progress to kill the mature trees after they first show symptoms?

BTL market alot less profitable now iv'e heard than it used to be. I don't like the idea of profit from others in that way, something morally wrong about theese BTL empires of houses etc.. But im probably just jealous of people who made millions though BTL without working because thay got lucky with a lump sum too invest then got onto BTL gravy train it at the right time of the house price market cycle etc. Alot of housing benefit going to making BTL landords rich in former council houses. -

Will have to extend the woodshed for the upcoming felling frenzy. I remember used to be elms everywhere, now about over 80% of big trees, are ash trees round here.

Its everywhere on Anglesey especially saplings

Have you ever used the rbc hegde trimmer attachment? Makita A-89523 Will it fit a rbc3101? also not sure about using a hegde trimmer with bullhorn handles?

Do you own the woodland?

I have run the RBC model 30c version for yrs. Quality strimmer The MM4 engines I can't find much feedback on them or reviews of them from longer term users. Like the "eco" idea of the 4 stroke of the mm4 makita long reach hegde trimmers, less exhaust fumes, but thinking 4 stroke still means heavier & less power compared to others? There cheaper than echo stihl etc though....

https://helko.co.uk/products/tasmania-timber-sport-axe Looks like a bugdet version of the competition timber sport axes so good for felling trees probably. Never tried felling a tree with an axe.

Theres no fairtrade label for charcoal or eqivalent?, so its cheap in supermarket I suppose as probably imported from places with cheap labour zero enviro regs (deforestation etc) etc, hard to compete against that. It even funds terrorism: https://www.alaraby.co.uk/english/Comment/2018/3/5/UAE-still-supports-al-Shabaab-through-Somalias-illicit-charcoal-trade Only way is target market @ people who care about enviro wanna buy british etc. I bought some local direct 2.5kg for £5.

Any local farm shop type place that could stock it, but I suppose they would want a %. The local farm shop has fruit & veg at a crazy prices & its not organic & much is bought in (labeling isn't clear but the they have obvious out of season stuff) but as its a "farm shop" opposed to lidl people seem ok paying alot more. They even have bananas in stock.

Because marketing BS is more important the product., and customer can boast about there specially imported crates of latvian kiln dried wood at dinner party. ?

Any decent ones that have a grippy palm? The leather palm gets get really slippy especially in wet, then like already mentioned they just fall apart after a few weeks anyway. Suppose in an ideal world could charge enough too afford to get new gloves everyweek & run aspen etc Anyone use arm sleeves when doing blackthorn berberis etc was thinking of trying some, might stop arms getting wrecked by thorns.

No idea but the local firewood merchants get it delivered.

My makita corded electric 2kw outcuts the smaller homeowner 2 stroke huskys & stihls but I only use it for firewood , but it would do the tree in picture no problem.

I just thought 150cc would just cut 3 times as fast with all the extra power I have a bump head which takes a load of line, so line lasts for hrs & hrs if cutting grass. Get though around 6 tanks of fuel in 6hrs running & only need to replaced line spool say on average once in whole day which takes about 3 minutes. Carry several precut lengths of line of different thickness etc. For brambles get though alot more line say one length per tank of fuel.

Hmm doesn't look any faster than normal strimmer? I thought you would be able to just walk along behind @ a decent pace going forward (like a lawn mower) not back & foward on each tussock. Whats made my stimmer alot faster is plastic guard fell off so grass doesn't clog behind it at all & I can run a longer cord taking out a wider strip with each ark. Downside get covered in more crap.
