Sounds like my wood work! Are they Mortise and tenon joints on the ends? I can make woven hurdles but never tried that style

You can double lay some things but it’s hard work and you will snap a few off! Lay the stem down hill then repleach turning the head back uphill. As long as the top is higher than the root it will work it’s self out. infill planting could be a easier / safer bet.

Excellent, they look smart. can we have a closer pic of the joints please?

It’s all about the trees man! And the girls love it 🥰

A fresh dedicated solar thread would be good and very useful. I’m currently trying to get my head around off grid set ups.

Sweden used to have a deposit system on drinks bottles, does it still @Big J ? I think it’s a brilliant idea

@william127 have a look at the digger flail parallel linkage setups, it allows an amount of float. We had the small Seppi on a micro bill loader and it works really well allowing the flail to ride over obstacles rather than ploughing through and bending something. Edit pic should help, a better search will probably find better pics!

If they do ban wood burners I will simply build myself the next one, that will probably be less efficient than what is currently available and say up yours to them. We have no mains supply of any energy so what else can I do? We heat our place inc hot water and cooking with wood.

Getting the seal over the lip is like any tight hole - you need a bit of lube!

If you want to skid logs and are handy with a welder look up boom pole crane the yanks love them, a small tractor can do a lot with one.

Setting up LOLER inspection business advise.
Will C replied to Matt swift-sewell's topic in General chat
No there isnt, half the tree teams don’t bother the other half have got that fed up with trying to find someone they do it in house. The few that are left expect it done over night for peanuts, by the time you take your time, professional indemnity insurance into account there isn’t evan a bit of shell left from the afore mentioned peanut. This may not be the case in all areas but it is from my experience. I know my maths don’t add up having 2 halves and a few over but you get the point. -
They may well be the same as early Timberwolf ones.

I’ve got a 5 ton clone from the ratchet shop with 40m of rope and regret it every time I have to lug it about, not much it won’t pull tho, it’s record is a canter loaded to about 5 ton and a 8 inch chipper both sat on there belly. It was 3 hours of sweat and swearing to get across that lawn the customer said was growing through hard stand and we could drive over it no bother🤯

When you leave the handle and associated bits behind and use the scaffold tube a 5.2mm file goes in the shear pin hole and snaps off just right , you can get a bit more pull from the longer handle then 🫣

Morning! (I’m not late I’m making good time for tomorrow) We lost one of our labs suddenly today at only just under 7 so time is merely going past in the background with no significance 🥺

Good to see you back around these parts again huck old school in my mind is a old bt pole belt and poly prop rope, before my time but those lads had some balls
-
Where are you? May find someone’s local who can weld it up for you

This is all to familiar good luck with it, I think many would agree our industry seem to attract people slightly off centre (in public perception) I reckon everyone thinks everyone else is weird as we all start measuring from different perspectives

The answer is 42 for the record I’m left handed and poss on the edge of a spectrum 🤣
