    Is wood burning in the garden legal in UK?

    Not every wood burning stoves are smoky. I have a smokless fire pit, and it burns really smokless clean. It has tripple burning chambers which reburns the trapped smokes in the burner, which makes burning clean and very efficient. Provided that the woods and logs are well dried and seasoned...

    Apple tree question

    We have an apple tree in the back garden. Not too old about 15 years old. It grew tall and scraggy, so I pruned it down to about 4 ft last year. This year it is growing like a bush with lots of leaves. I am now thinking of moving it to the corner of the garden right at the back. My question...

    WD40 and cleaning rust on the metal surface

    I have an old rusty wood burning stove. I was intending to clean up the rust, and looked for some rust treating paints and chemicals. But they were too overpiced and performance and result sounded uncertain. So I sprayed the old WD40 found in the garden shed, and gave a good generous soak on...

    Many people doubt if it will be actually materialised. Many also believe that lithium electric car batteries will do more environmental damage than anything ever produced in the history of human civilisation in the long run. You seem to have missed all these news and articles.

    Is wood burning in the garden legal in UK?

    If more harmful is the criteria for being illegal, then exhaust fumes from the motor cars are definitely million and billion times more harmful than smoke from all the wood burners in the whole world. Why are they not making driving the motor cars illegal then? What about the factories and...

    Is wood burning in the garden legal in UK?

    If the problem is due to the air pollution caused by smoke, then it would be all the same effect whether wood burning was done by the indoor wood burners or outdoor wood burners in the gardens or fields.

    Moving large ferns and other plants

    Yeah I was thinking of spliting the ferns into 4x per each, as they are quite large. They are not tree ferns. They are just shrub like Ferns with no tree stems. They might be actually brackens. They were bought from B&Q for a fiver for the whole lot of 4 about 10 year ago when they were in...

    eBay battery powered chainsaws

    eBay battery powered chainsaws

    It came to about £13 for each batteries for the 4. And the 2x saws were free, so price wise it wasn't too bad. Try to get them with the real makita name on them. They may break the bank.

    eBay battery powered chainsaws

    They seem to come with warranty too. Some were saying 2 years or 5 years warranty. But one seller was offering Life Time Warranty. Not sure if it would be realistic or straightforward to claim the warranties in case anything goes wrong with the saws or the batteries. Not even sure if the...

    eBay battery powered chainsaws

    Climbing up on the ladder with a large chainsaw last year to cut the tall hedge stems was really difficult and felt danagerous. One hand operated light and small chainsaw would have been safer and easier while the other hand holds on to the ladder. Wish I had known these devices were available...
