  1. Snazzy oufit and is that a sovereign ring?
  2. If its birch that has being down since that Feb storm it will all need to be moved before this winter if its to be of of any use as firewood etc - or it will all rot. Also as the ground is still firm atm better now ....
  3. Think its an older bar model version that looks like it has being superseeded by the other new "speedcut" ones hence it might be phased out, and there be less of them around now. Speedcut has 2 sprocket nose sizes 10t and 12t. 150TXLBK095 150TXLGK095 But a solid bar does sounds ideal for a processer as why the need for a lighter laminate one?
  4. Summary of the mini bugdet Mini-Budget response | Institute for Fiscal Studies IFS.ORG.UK The Chancellor announced the biggest package of tax cuts in 50 years without even a semblance of an effort to make the...
  5. The dragon he did in Bethesda is amazing
  6. I wonder why plastic use is limited as the honda ones are good and seem well regarded. Maybe its wrongly percieved as a poor quality - a only used on cheap chinese stuff type material, hence its needlessly avoided as they think it wouldn't sell as well. Its probably the best material for the job if its of a decent thickness & quality type of plastic I know commecially 3 yrs is regarded decent time for a mower. But don't like needless waste and a throw away culture etc for enviro reasons. Yeah normally first think to go.
  7. Poor anti vibe is what I don't like about older saws on rubber mounts - esp relevant if using all day etc
  8. So you reckon its it some exotic ash species like Fraxinus mandschurica? Might be resistant to adb?
  9. Why not get a honda engine one whats special about the kawasaki? Think my ideal mower would have a more powerful honda GX200 and a stainless steel deck and side discharge option for longer grass like this one: Even has 4 wheel drive and 2 different blades one for mulching and a hi- lift winged type for bagging . Marina Systems MX 4-MAXI 52 SH GCVX 200 lawn mower 4 in 1 , best deal on AgriEuro WWW.AGRIEURO.CO.UK Marina Systems MX 4-MAXI 52 SH GCVX 200 4 in 1 heavy-duty lawn mower Steel decks rust alu ones rot/corrode plastic better maybe but surely stainless is best? Wouldn't be so bad if spare decks weren't £250 quid each or whatever..... Then the mower gets junked even though the engines fine.
  10. Im not sure why but since covid and brexit etc getting hold of rdm everything is like looking for rocking horse shit.
  11. 15" Pro-Lite Cut Guide Bar fits Oregon 95 Series Chainsaws, Genuine Oregon Part, OEM No. 150MPBK095 WWW.LSENGINEERS.CO.UK 15 Isn't this one the same? Oregon 150TXLBK095 SpeedCut Chainsaw Chain Guide Bar 15" 0.325" 0.050" new WWW.EBAY.CO.UK GENUINE OREGON SPEEDCUT GUIDE BAR. To be used with Oregon SpeedCut™ Chain - 95TXL (Pitch 0.325", Gauge... or this OREGON 15in ADVANCECUT ML Bar 0.325in 1.3mm K095 Mount 150MLBK095 FPANDG.COM Features & Benefits Slim symmetrical contour is light in weight, maneuverable, and reversible for long life. Small-radius nose... Unsure the differences betwwen the 3?
  12. Felling axe? Is this about climbers knives?
  13. Depends just look at the wood and use your own judgement imo as some might be fine,. I think its not the hard to see...how far gone it is etc. I felled some ash with it recently with about 50% of the canopy lost. The rot/stain was only in 1/4 of the trunks cross section of the rings on some trees, on some others less. Saving some of the wood to make tool handles. Ash might be virtually unavailable in future due to adh so nice to save some for projects.
  14. Bahco do one: BAHCO ATP-230-410 - 32 mm Top Pruner on Telescopic Pole - Red Box Tools WWW.REDBOXTOOLS.COM 32 mm Top Pruner on Telescopic Pole Think it will be decent if there loppers are anything to go by.... Im using the ARS one for alot of stuff I used to use the wolf for so much less faff like you metion but limited max diameter and less reach.
  15. ARS japanese stuff is very good quality I have a shorter version of this: ARS Telescopic Pruner - Niwaki WWW.NIWAKI.COM Telescopic secateurs for getting at those out-of-reach branches. Light weight aluminium arm easily adjusts from 6'... But for thicker stuff - loppers diameter etc- I use the wolf garten string pulley pole one ... Also a tripod ladder to use the pole pruner from if you don't already have...
  16. Never understood the sense of charging £300 or whatever for the BS booklets etc. Hardly encourges best practice?
  17. Any info on the new cordless X series DCS-3500 v the DCS-1600 you mention above
  18. ms180 is very gutless even with a 13" bar esp is crosscutting any larger logs. If hes only going to be using it for cutting up firewood logs at home with mains nearby a 2kw corded saw would be a better buy.
  19. Makita EA4300F38C 43cc Petrol Chainsaw (38cm) WWW.FASTFIX.CO.UK The Makita EA4300F38C chainsaw features a 43cc 2-stroke engine that provides 3hp and is ideal for landscapers and... £100 over but worth the extra.
  20. Thought you could just divide the cordwoods delivery load total weight by how many cages you have filled when its all processed.
  21. Any decent new biodegradable mulch mats/ tree spats yet? I see they sell jute ones but they are expensive. Farmers getting nothing atm for wool always think felt mats would be good? Mattock is good for small bare root whips.
  22. What is the weight in each cage approx?
