If only I had one of these Rose pruning time, they would be all pruned back in 5 minutes instead of 2 days  :like

No mate- not pruned the way you do at just the exact right angle and location.
They would be mulched in milli-seconds.
You sure that's what will produce perfect show-worthy blooms?

Awesome bit of kit that. Makes you wonder how the hell our forebears ever managed to clear so much land with just an axe, pick shovel and a Clydesdale in chains.

it may struggle on some of our hard woods though.

A while ago we had a digger working clearing a paddock next door which could rip an 18 inch  diameter spotty or ironbark out by the roots and feed the whole bloody thing into a tub grinder.  Beats pushing it over with a dozer and burning it.

It looks like nothing would slow it down.

As for those wretched piles of timber you see drying ready for burning, I think that's a dreadful waste.  Mulching it is a much better us of resources, apart from saving all the smoke from the burnoff.

I have burnt many hundreds of tonnes of beautiful seasoned fire wood over the years. But not before I offered it free to any one who would take it. You know in all those years I only had one guy come and take some.

I rang a firewood supplier whose response was if your deliver it cut to Newcastle I'll take it.  At the time i was 45 minutes drive from Newcastle.  I rang a guy with a Lucas mill he promised he would come for 6 months but never came so when burning season came around again I put a match in it. I gave up asking after that

I had some hell fires though. one was still hot after 6 months.   I nearly burnt two tractors and  nearly got bit by countless snakes so a generally good time was had by all despite the wanton destruction!!!
