Sounds like the US? Alnus incana? Think I would treat it like a UK chesnut coppice & clear fell areas on rotation if you want some wood but maybe keep a few of the biggest trees as parkland trees habitat etc. Black Alder in the park of Chatsworth House, Edensor, England, United Kingdom WWW.MONUMENTALTREES.COM 1-5 answer: Can't see an issue doing any of thoose if its in US- but I don't really know what any local rules/regs are etc? UK has regulations on felling and firewood selling.

Prefer swedes to turnips & they seem easier to grow as less bolt prone. Fuskahsima water being released out the sea is supposedly safe now as being filtered apart from the tritium which can't be removed but which they say they are gonna dilute down to safe lvls (its occurs naturally) Thats the offical version anyway. ALPS Treated Water Q&A / METI Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry WWW.METI.GO.JP I reckon they are probably doing a better job than sellafield has/does.

Once a yrs job taking a few hrs to pull any climbing ivy off any walls trees unless its a massive garden And u can strim it off walls etc very fast if its only less than 1 yrs old growth. Also its very shallow rooted so easy to remove normally. Gravel under trees is a pretty bad idea imo and high maintenance in general. & unless you remove leaves regularly they then will mix with the gravel then u get weeds growing so a leaf blower is needed.

Whatt does low maintenace surfacing mean concrete tarmac etc?

If you already have 50 acres & more whats going on with that atm?

Might of being a lunge to far?

If goats escape you will find they have climbed up somewhere stupid on the the roof of the car or house roof etc. 🙂

Goats will escape unless the fencing is very good.

Why did you buy a 4 acre paddock and decide you want sheep but have no clue about sheep? Just seems abit odd. Get a butcher to do home slaughter and stick em in the freezer & eat them? Otherwise whats the point- pets I suppose?

Never understood why pole saws are so expensive.

Says 5yrs domestic 2yrs commercial shaft is 28mm Spares do seem rare (seem abit more around from italy ) for both the mitsubishi engine and the kaaz parts. Looks like a good product quality wise. Shame that they can't be organized with the spares as mitsubishi is not some obscure company after all......

This bruscutter looks good any opinions? https://www.kaaz.co.jp/en/Spec/VF500.pdf Made in japan very good anti vibe stats, spares might be the downside? What are the TLE48 (Mitsubishi) engines like?

If any stuff isn't splitting just put it to to one side & use the chainsaw on it.

Just looked at badminton estate on google maps plenty of woods with some very long tree avenues & parkland landscaping over many acres.
-
Thats a lot of yew I thought it was rare - as I assumed that you don't get many acres of yew woods about often its individual trees? Do you know were it came from? Maybe some large estates with planted yew avenues etc?

Air compressors.. which kind to get & what do you use yours for?
Stere replied to Cordata's topic in General chat
Is a plus of the oil free ones, that unlike the oiled ones you are not blowing any out misted oil which might not be that healthy? Or it that a non issue? Haven't done a maintenance on the lidl one since bought it yrs ago so suppose this needs doing plus checking oil. -

Yeah i remember now it it was Rob @ chainsaw bars. But it still confused me as the new 0.50 chain & light bars etc were being marketed as cutting 20% faster. Above is direct from the stihl website: MS 261 C-M Petrol Chainsaw - Powerful 3.0 kW forestry chainsaw with Light 04 bar WWW.STIHL.CO.UK The STIHL MS 261 C-M petrol chainsaw is the perfect tool for small to medium tree maintenance work. This new version... Not sure whats true?
-
Might cut abit slower versus a 0.50 as wider kerf / teeth on the new 0.58 matching chain means saw has to work harder... So on a 350 (50cc 2.3kw) sticking with 0.50 might be better i reckon? Casing should be ok. & the sprocket will not need chainging if chain is the same pitch......
-
As a chain wears the gap between the bar & sprocket increases as the chain tensioner adjusts the bar outwards away from the sprocket to keep the chain the right tightness.. Might this effect how smoothly it runs? & some bars are wide near the sprocket end meaning the chain doesn't align as well as it would on a narrower bar with with the same sprocket...

Dunno much about them although I remember something about them being compulsory in BC state Says so: The BC fallers guide: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwjV_ZHV4pT9AhVbSkEAHRxyDMIQFnoECAwQAQ&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.worksafebc.com%2Fresources%2Fhealth-safety%2Fbooks-guides%2Fbc-faller-training-standard%2Fpart-1%3Flang%3Den&usg=AOvVaw0s-9QS-IbHzPjJvmyjOgnU

So first a cylindrical then an octagonal ufo shot down - any theories? Maybe a trapezoid one next - or some other random geometry?
