teenage missus and 3 kids sadly the stalls always get hit at the shows, too hard to stop it all, too many people and too much small kit not tied down

Opinions wanted please - Where are all the arborists?
manco replied to KateH's topic in General chat
Q: where are all the arborists A: in trees youre welcome -
top tip maybe in future tips, run the rope in a loop round the whole load and tie both ends to the container and drive forward? if you get me? pull the whole lot in one go. get a larger one at the front to pull all the rest as you drive.

Ash in Mid Wales - should it be saved ?
manco replied to domrob's question in Homeowners Tree Advice Forum
noted, but the photo seems to show lean towards the field? subject to top weight on the tree, and wind direction. "close" to the house is also subjective my final comments being if theyre sufficiently worried then drop it. even the best of us cant or wont state unconditionally that its safe to remain? i never state that any established tree is "safe". -
Ash in Mid Wales - should it be saved ?
manco replied to domrob's question in Homeowners Tree Advice Forum
another vote to leave it alone, probably take some weight off the top with a professional reduction. questions to consider: how much top is on it? cant see from the photos supplied. what will it hit if it fails? looks like a bit of fencing and an open field? which way is the main wind coming from? the ultimate answer is if youre seriously worried and can afford it maybe it needs to go. -
only ever trying to be an arse, get to the bottom of things, firmly seated in the moment, butt sometimes people rear against me. i suppose if my arse is online not on the line, its got bluetooth and wifi so it must be a smart arse.

cue a hundred responses all claiming the boots they wear are the best not many people have tried enough different pairs to compare i favour protector pro, full leather and over the ankle for good support, once they wear in.

fyi that was like 20 for each saw. im running multiple saws, some with about 15-20 new spare chains some with only 3 or 4 spares.
-
like it says, how many is too many or how many do i/you/we need? one on the saw and a spare? handful of spares? a shelf full of spares on the principle that the price is only gonna go up? is 20 too many?
