  1. Some type of Oak as can see a few lobes in first pic? AI says
  2. Its the guards plus stakes which have caused problems were they larger trees which is imo a bad idea for such large volume plantings? If your stake is attached low down as possible so top tree can move in the wind the trees will develop alot better root anchoring but then this would not support the guards..... If staked low by the time the stakes fail trees will hopefully have anchored its self.... I once made alot of stakes from free larch sawmill offcuts
  3. I don't think that species can be overwatered as looking up info says they grow in water logged conditions naturally AI/google says River birch trees are particularly susceptible to developing iron chlorosis (yellowing of leaves) in alkaline soils. This is because the high pH of alkaline soil makes it difficult for the tree to absorb the essential nutrient iron. Some infos River birch might be a lost cause - West DIGITALEDITION.CHICAGOTRIBUNE.COM But apparently Wake county NC is mostly acidic.... Soil Survey of Wake County, North Carolina : United States.

  6. All at once. Thne cut again all after 7yrs if you want some bean poles etc.
  7. Whats the end usages out of interest once milled?
  8. Drought maybe?
  9. https://www.tecomec.com/documents/20121/67321/P00802007_R18__Catal_F%26G_2025_A00_Lq.pdf/526d81e2-56a8-b39a-833d-35c6e583a4ae?t=1734431001816 There is a big range of models not sure what the important differences are i think the oregon are just rebranded jollys?
  10. Well its very often true.
  11. So why is it different to the husky or oregon versions as same pitch and gauge?
  12. Ok enlighten me which dictators are woke I can't think of any.
  13. Im thinking more like 10 or even 20?
  14. Stihl do it also. Rapid Micro Special (RMS) - For 1/4" | STIHL WWW.STIHL.CO.UK Low-vibration comfort carving saw chain with excellent cutting performance. Short cutter top plate eliminates the need to...
  15. Id also consider the makita 40v platform as batteries are free on promotion atm with each new tool and the cost of batteries is a big % of total cost So you could buy 3 tools & get 3 free 40v batteries I think.. Makita - Products WWW.MAKITAREDEMPTION.EU Agree about blowers they are very battery hungry. If you look on yotube there some reviews of the makita products If you look at the Kw rating of the electric motor in the various toppers compared to a 200t will tell you roughly how rapid with it cut in comparison. So the msa220t for example should cut about the same i reckon as a ms200t.
  16. Isn't using this this some old wives tale like killing a tree with copper nails?
  17. One is the fattest beech in the UK Security Verification WWW.ANCIENTTREEFORUM.ORG.UK

  20. What doesn't make sense?
  21. Adze or draw knife.
  22. Well its all about selling more stuff I suppose but I agree on the saw models Having 4 pitches doesn't seem that excessive though to me considring the range of saw sizes..... Maybe should all be .404 just checked it isn't that much more...
  23. Its confusing mixing imperial and metric and various gauges and pitch combinations in both fraction and decimals Wouldn't say .325 1.1mm or maybe 1.3mm full chisel suit better? As a ms261 does well on .325 1.3mm so why have a battery saw on 3/8 a longer pitch but with a narrower kerf? Bascially i don't get the ideas of of a 3/8 picco - a combi of a bigger pitch but narrow gauge as doesn't the pitch it make it more grabby? Like the tpi on a hand saw or silky....
  24. Thts what i was thinking esp with beech
  25. Have a look here run time can be improved alot for the same Wh Makita Launched a New High Output Battery TOOLGUYD.COM
