Great! 🙂 Do you know what the criteria were? I'd got quite a few new subscribers over the past year, but wasn't sure if that was the reason.

😂 A hat? Have you worn it more than once?

The gas escapes under the edge of the smaller barrel, it's not a tight seal.

Yeah, I put that in the description. A bit silly for it to be called an "led neon sign"

You're right, they're quite expensive. The problem with a knife is that you don't have much leverage to turn it to split the wood - that's why the froe has a handle at 90° to the blade.

@@mikepepler I have taken yesterday a piece of pine 19x50 and quickly did thin kindling 3x3mm with the knife. That will be enough for starting 10 fires. So I do not need the froe. Very narrow use and very expensive. No need.

That's great! 🙂 The froe is primarily for splitting sweet chestnut poles for fencing, I'm repurposing it for making kindling.

I picked that one up at a wood fair or country fair many years ago, you see them around quite a bit. You can buy them new too, Ray Iles and Bristol Design make good ones, I've used both.

Whole case is 536567901, case without front panel is 599730401. I bought them from oakleysgardenmachinery.co.uk/

The batteries, charge controller and inverter are earthed. The solar panel frames aren't, but in our location there are many higher metal objects than the solar panels, so I decided that was OK.

Male

I've not tried that one, only other one I've used was a Stihl, which was similar in power but the throttle response was a bit weird, and it had an odd lockout button on the side of the hand grip. Good to hear from you! 🙂

@@mikepepler Good to see you too keeping well to be honest missing them days with chainsaws but on contrary different toys different game and I love it Asked about Milwaukee because last year bought one for a father in law and never had a chance to use it although he had sent me a video using it but video it’s not a same as using it Hope some day catch up with you and say hello 👋 Best regards

It's saved me a lot of time over the years! 🙂

I agree. It broke a plastic gear after a while. They did make a newer version that added a battery and solar panel, with a simple loop of cord to pull to charge it. But it's quite expensive now. See deciwatt.global/gravitylight

Yes, quite possibly.

Yes!

It's near Canterbury.

Yes, I think so! Max is female actually, though we weren't sure of that until an egg was laid!

No, mostly oak and sweet chestnut. Why do you ask?

​@@mikepeplerpq aqui no brasil tem mais e eucalipto. Eu vou reproduzi uma maquina dessa ja fiz a lamina .tenho conversado com alguns amigos eles diseram q nao vai reder igual pq eucalipto e mais duro. Ai eu fico naquela sera q vou ter um redimento satisfatorio. Pq vou coloca uma motosserra. E outra coisa e um prazer esta conversando com vc agradeço pela sua atenção q Deus abençoe vc

Vc tem feito novos videos

@@WashingtonJonasGarciaSobreira I hope it goes well well with your eucalyptus! Oak is quite a hard wood too, so I hope you will be OK with eucalyptus. One thing to know is that the saw disc has four cutting teeth, which can be replaced. The disc is steel, but the cutting teeth are tungsten carbide I think. They're welded on to the disc.

@@WashingtonJonasGarciaSobreira I haven't done any new milling videos in a while, the mill belongs to a friend of mine. It's still in use, although it's a bit old now.

About 5mm

It's called a turning strap. If you look at a good forestry store you should find one.

She is. Person who sold her to us, as a juvenile, said she was male. We weren't so sure, so we called her Max, thinking Maxwell or Maxine... Then our other bird Floyd started mating with her, then there were eggs, so now we know for sure! No eggs hatched last time, but they're about to have another go, so we'll see what happens...

Don't worry, he got plenty of that 🙂 Sadly he passed away a couple of years ago now, but we have two more, this time a breeding pair.

@@mikepepler Oh nice. Good you have a huge bath for them in non toxic, lead free glass.

She, actually. We weren't sure when we got her, but eggs have been laid... Her colours are great, I love the mix of grey and yellow.

its because of the way bird-feets work, they kinda lock in place as soon they perch, the only way to open their foot is by lifting it up. now you have an perch swinging up and down, which means whenever it swings down the bird will partially loose its grip since his entire body pulls up for a second. they dont have muscles to close or open their feets/toes, also explains why they dont fall when sleeping. worth to do a youtube search about bird feets, its a really interesting topic

I expect you could. Here's another version, using a sling and a winch to roll a hung up tree: ua-cam.com/video/jGxY0tbUff4/v-deo.html

It's a bit of a niche use case.

No thanks! 😂 It serves a purpose for small trees. We're cutting coppice most of the time on a 20-30 year rotation, so the trees don't get time to grow very large.

@@mikepepler Thankfully, meter diameter oaks don't often hang. Play safe. Cheers

I think all work in the woods has an element of danger, it's a matter of thinking through the risks and mitigating them. Winch is safer, but heavy to carry around.

😂
