Offline for me all of yesterday and last evening.

Fallen Oak, Birch x 2 and pine clear up. Had the kids out with us to help. All chipped into the woodland and logged up the first day and then today we milled the bottom 6 metres of the stem for some boards for the customer today. We also felled a goat willow and winched the footballs back into...

It’s alien to you guys, but it makes sense to me. It’s not worth dicking around with poplars. Plant them, wait till they get too big, butcher them, cut the regrowth periodically, till the tree starts to rot out, fell it, replant.

I don't often see pruning like that here. Poplars grow fast so it seems logical that they might have to be 'hit hard'. What say you arborists here- in the same situation, how would you prune these trees? Arguably they are the wrong tree for the site, but since they are there, is there a...

The Forum has been unavailable for me a couple of times the last couple of days.

Sticky sappy leaning heavy mess of a thing.

Been away from The Tree House for a while, but I'm still around. Very busy year!

For a very brief moment, but I couldn't be sure that it wasn't just spotty coverage in the hills. Today was one of those days that I was happy to be working the ground. I hate bullpines. I like nothing about them.

Anyone had problems with the forum yesterday? It was intermittent for me. I thought it could be a bad storm somewhere or an old server on it's way out.

Why not file it sqare? You get more options to adapt the cutters result to fit its purpose on the saw its on? I am no master on square filing, but when it gets right for the saw and work its a huge differance. When grinding its harder to optimize.
