  1. Thanks for the replies, I was going to chip it all but as some is really big you got me thinking....
  2. Chainsaw, tractor mounted chipper.
  3. Don't want the job so will quote high, if they bite I'll do it. How much per hour? Thanks.
  4. I have some. Lots actually. In N Devon.
  5. Sorry, didn't read your width requirement. Can't manage that!
  6. Pm. me with what you are after I bet I can manage you're order. I saw (as in watched) the most amazing beech planked yesterday. 5m x40cm X 8cm boards. We are doing oak next week.
  7. A mate has a 2wd tractor and I often drive it on the road. I have a 4wd tractor and for woodland stuff I think 4wd is fairly essential.
  8. When I was young I put my sister in hospital after feeding her laburnum.
  9. Drop the top window to doors....
  10. laburnum is poisonous so is yew.
  11. Comedy night. Are you serious?
  12. Funnily enough I was talking to him yesterday and that's probably the route I'm going. I appreciate you seconding him.
  13. Have done now, looks OK to me but I'm a novice...
  14. Help appreciated on the brand. I'm looking at the ones that take a chainsaw.
  15. I was inspired today by a big tree in Beaford. Any photos of any welcome.
  16. Genuinely I would avoid the work. A few quid for the risk is not worth it.
  17. Building control can't work out the insulation requisite on log cabins.
  18. If the shed was built after 1990 it is unlikely to be aspestos. That is not to say it isn't though. Sweeping it or spraying it is a problem if it is. I have two sheds built in 1990 that I thought were aspestos. The smallest is 4500 squ ft of roof. I had it tested for £20 and it proved negative. Look for marking on the boards if you want to identify it.
  19. Thanks, noted. I'll advertise it elsewhere. Nice little saw.
  20. Will eBay be a painful process for disposal? Any advice thanks.
  21. If he's a "busy" farmer I don't think he'll have the time to pursue you for a tree, be it logs or planks.
  22. I would get the hydraulics sorted and go for the conventional splitter. The pto ones are horrible Imo. They catch a log and twist it. You only need a few more revs on a low powered tractor to sort the pressure. I lent my splitter to someone with a 25hp tractor and they split with it all day and no problems. Red is cheap as anything at the moment and even if it rises you'll still be better with it. Pto uses fuel too remember so the engine is going either way. Also a hydraulic log splitter can be stopped in an instant, stopping the pto means jumping on the tractor.
