  4. Still see some old oak rectangle posts along fence lines must be pretty old.... Think they were standard use at some time not sure when they stopped using them for general agri fencing
  5. Dunno sounds abit like greenwashy how is it any better than other fully synth 2 stroke oils stuff enviro wise i wonder? Surely lowest possible exhaust emissions is key with 2 stroke oils some like amsoil now claim to be ok at 100:1 so less emissions... Also cats scrub some exhaust emssions so may need replacing eventually if you really care about emmissions?
  6. Dunno it depends on the spec could probably cut all in 1 -2 days if just leaving the stuff lying on floor not snedded or processed in any way - say if its hazel like they do under power lines sometimes 4 -5 days or more maybe if stuff has to be chipped tidy stacked removed processed etc i reckon. Species of tree spacing undergrowth brambles etc slopes alot of variables?

  8. TVC handbook is decent
  9. To many running joints 🙂
  10. Loook pretty but welsh mountian sheep would use them stones sticking out as ladders i reckon and be over it
  11. Probably just worth getting more batteries less hassle.
  12. Some 30% of global tree species at risk of extinction -report WWW.REUTERS.COM Almost a third of the world's tree species are at risk of extinction, while hundreds are on the brink of being wiped...
  13. Bit of an invasive species

  16. Bit confused though that ethanol is higher octane so some increased engine efficiency also?
  17. Article is good on some details with regards to 2 stroke scooters air cooled so relevant for chainsaws: E10 - High Ethanol content fuel – will it kill my scooter? | OPINION - SCOOTERLAB.UK ScooterLab Are more modern saws etc designed to cope with E10? i.e built with ethnaol resistant materials such as the fuel lines?
  18. Why does E10 increase fuel comsumption don't understand? Actually says so on the gov site: But must be much bigger effect than 1% to notice the difference....? Other website reckoned 10% so for 10% ethanol if thats true E10 seems pointless? New E10 fuel could reduce a car's economy by 10 per cent WWW.AUTOCAR.CO.UK A real-world study by What Car? suggests the government's plans to introduce new fuel could hit motorists in the pocket 😄 Maybe its worse for 2 stroke for some reason?
  19. AS mowers look top quality very expensive though Products Archive | [UK] AS-Motor WWW.AS-MOTOR.UK

  22. Could also get a silky saw you could do alot in a few hours cutting scrubby overhanging branches & stuff & felling small seeded trees along edges etc. Trouble is where is all all the large volume of trimmed stuff going thought? Over hegde into farmers fields as many bridle ways narrow lack places to dump stuff or will have to drag it a long way... So you really need a chipper and chainsaw if the bridleways ways are anything like as overgrown as the ones ive seen here large blackthorn etc
  23. Reckon you should get a battery multi tool several brands around bit pricey though for the decent ones, cheaper if you already have a the batteries ans charger for other tools.
  24. Horses etc like to eat it... EDIT Google says its poisonous for horses, but as have often seen ponies munching on it thought it was used as a general animal fodder historically...
