    Where, oh where ?

    Firstly bigbear I would contact the real estate offices & let them know what you are looking for. Next I would take some country drives & see what there is. When I moved I found that the land I had intended to purchase did not have a building permit. So I had a look around. I came across two...

    Wood burner stove advice please

    Robbi. Are most wood pallets treated? Most domestic pallets are not treated with chemicals, so they should be safe. But you still have to be careful. Many crafters use these pallets safely, but it is better if you can trace from where they came. https://www.1001pallets.com/pallet-safety/ Keith.

    Cleaning a Down bag

    Mate I don't think a down bag can be cleaned without ruining it. Dry cleaning uses dangerous chemicals, & if you wash it, it will never be the same again. Keith.

    Coppicing advice

    I have only coppiced just enough area to supply us with garden poles, tool handles & stails DT. This is not a large area.
