Meetings with remarkable trees, the Arbtalk version
westphalian replied to Steve Bullman's topic in Picture Forum
Looks like Mother Nature was in the middle of creating a clove hitch and got disturbed by some wood nymphs -
Ok, I know the above is not much of a question but I had a good sess milling spruce yesterday and completely filled my L200 to the brim with 2” 8’ planks. It has a load capacity of 1ton. Drove slowly back and handled ok but I figured it was at limit or beyond Ie is there a formula for calculating weight?

Where do you get wood for your stove?

So why doesn’t she buy a pallet load and save money? -
As a kid I remember asking my dad why god invented fleas. “So you wash yourself son” Now I know there is no reason, they just are, they evolved to fill a niche. I disagree that humans would not survive without wasps. Something else would take their place. Apparently neither Sweet Baby Jesus nor Allah likes vacuums. I don’t mind them myself but then again I’m not a deity

I meant the tree was the danger. But...hear me out...you are cycling along...a woodie flies over the road, shits and it lands in your eye...blinds you and you ride into an oncoming lorry. They should be shot on site IMO

I cannot believe this. Wood pigeon are under general license and can be shot all through the year but not at night. I can understand a non pest bird but definitely not if a danger to humans

You don’t make your own bread do you?

Thanks Mick. That’s 5 minutes of my life I cannot get back

Like it says, when felling a leaner and just the strap is left to cut, what’s the difference between just cutting straight through or as I have seen on YouTube, a Canadian logger cutting it from above angled?

Can u give me the link to eBay? Your idea of cheap might differ from mine. Currently I am using a hand ascender in the same set up as you. Works ok but obviously bulky

Will you have to return your MBE?

I keep on promising myself to keep one pocket sealed, just for my phone, but no, too difficult

Err, yes, I am. I cannot change how my ears work so the onus is on him to change. I would love to have a debate with him although I was not president of the debating society at my school as my comp didn't have one. I wouldn't call him a dick, I would just put my point over in a respectful way and as soon as it looked I was losing the argument, nut him. Politicians are like Eggs, they love to argue the toss...

How about on how they name their kids? Sixtus Boniface and Anselm Fitzwilliam?? Stop being a social warrior and call a spade a spade. He’s a dick. If he made an effort he could easily tone down his plummy accent but he chooses not to, cos he’s a dick

I stopped watching Wranglerstar a few years ago when he endorsed Trump. he seemed to know his way around a chainsaw when I was watching but why would he not comment on the problem techniques? all he had to say was, "watch the nose for kickback", "that will pinch your saw","the tension on the gas saw needs tightening", "your face being 6 inches away from a woman with a chainsaw isn't a good idea" etc
