  1. On the second batch of photos it looks like the tree is developing a rib, which would indicate an internal crack it curving and gradually coming to a rib would usually indicate the tree is coping, the more severe it is would indicate the tree isn't coping.
  2. I was thinking Oh He's just teasing us now!... which reminded me of my favourite teasing jokes

  4. Forgot to mention I think its only P. cryptogea that affects Tilia spp. (along with some shrubs) not ramorum from what I recall, a second opinion would be great, Thanks. I've never personally seen it on a lime.
  5. A Thank You from me too, words cannot express how grateful I am
  6. http://www.fera.defra.gov.uk/plants/publications/documents/factsheets/pramparks.pdf You can get test kits but that above article from Defra may help as well
  7. I believe it first came out in 2007 "About the Author Bob Watson BSc [Hons], BA, MHort [RHS], MIHort, CBiol, MIBiol, has spent a large part of his working life as a lecturer in amenity tree management, tree biology, arboriculture, urban forestry and forest pathology. He retired in 1988 from the post of Head of School, Forestry and Woodland Management at the National School of Forestry, University of Central Lancashire, but until 2005 still lectured there in plant science, tree biology and arboriculture on a part-time basis.

  8. How do I work this mangonel? Success!
  9. Depends on what area, for a general book 'Trees : - Their Use, Management, Cultivation and Biology by Bob Watson' is pretty comprehensive & a good book to consider if your doing a course in Arboriculture. Identification books : - 'The Hilliers Manual to Trees & Shrubs' 'Mushrooms by Roger Phillips' & 'The Wild Flower Key by Francis Rose'. And anything by Claus Mattheck I cant wait for his new book!
  10. Those are some Darzer spikes, shame I just updated mine a few months back
  11. Now that cups a bobby dazzler
  12. Oi Oi Mr Chris, Decided to make an ArbTalk account after being a long-term lurker. Keep up the graft Nice grinder, did you get the 'no stress unit' fitted with it?
  13. Everyone likes comfort for their mini-me.
  14. Got me baffled, viral & bacterial infections along with deficiencies would usually spread across the whole leaf. Birds do nip the leaves to get the larva if they are present and they do look nipped as you say a bird with cataracts? I look forward to your discovery!
  15. The anvils are stationary, both are held in by two bolts. If they are worn either turn or replace them. The anvil gap is set when the rotor is fitted (or re-fitted) to the machine.
  16. I would have to agree give him a try, Richard Court is a sound bloke.
  17. Hilarious, If only it went on til he either realised or lost it.
  18. This man has won at life.
  19. Awesome, this is something I've always wanted to try :3
  20. Praxis make their own style of stump grinder teeth, Three blades/Teeth to one 'set' and you will have 3 to 4 in total. They usually have a specialised wheel fitted. Only thing I can suggest is going to the importer or trying to get a standard head made to suit more common teeth (this is likely the more cost efficient option in the long run).

  21. I bet your glad it wasn't an Alpine Magnum you were using
  22. I think the photo / video link didn't not upload properly my good man ~ Sir PointOutTheObviousALot
  23. I predict the forum gaining members & Durham gaining more arborists *strokes beard*
