Popular Post David48 Posted September 25, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted September 25, 2014 Gentlemen ... you won't see much of me around for the next month as I'm on a surprise visit to the Farm to be with MissFarmGirl and the boys. The internet here is average at best and the images take a lot of bandwidth to download. Here is a snap from this morning ... geeze, you'd think he would be happy to see me ... Huge rain here last night ... one of the best downpours I've witnessed for a while. . 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post samuijimmy Posted September 27, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted September 27, 2014 (edited) great shots guys ^ ran out of likes! Farming for fish! ... Thali Noi lake Songkhla I have a whole series of Songkhla farm images but need to size them down....

oldsailor35 Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Thai made wood chippers! I saw these at a street fair, in Nathon Samui, today.... the guys gave me a demo... they seemed to work very well! All sizes, both electric and Gas! Start at 42,000 baht I think he said !! Blade sharpener too! For more info, contact Khun Boon at www.nimut.com or email [email protected] Hope that helps any one looking for such a thing! A friend of mine in Queensland who has a tree felling business, told me that he would put most tree branches through his chippers with the exception of PALM trees, as they just stuff the blades super quick. Perhaps that's why they sell an optional sharpening thingy! ^ In the first pic he shredded a coconut frond with no problem.... leaves where stripped off, they may cause binding problems.... Did you like the pic of you shoveling Poo? ^^^^ I am an old shit shoveller from way back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldsailor35 Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Re Shaggy's question. ^ Here is a pic I took back in 2007 ... down Songkhla way, lots of farmers were starting to get in on the "palm oil bandwagon". It worked for many, but my friends who tried it, lost the whole field they planted as the high water level during the rainy season and the trees rotted! Everyone except them went the extra mile and channeled the water away from the roots... with large ditches... as in this pic... I cannot remember the planting distance but these look about the same... (I was really focusing on the birds! ) I wonder from your pic Shaggy if the palms will survive in the rice paddy, unless drained? I'll try and dig up the images of the planting area they used... we had to access by long tail boat! Looks like there might be a good site for a Bird house around there.

Popular Post shaggy1969 Posted September 27, 2014 Author Popular Post Share Posted September 27, 2014 (edited) Had originally planned on seeing if I could get a sunset shot that evening. After seeing this brute start emptying it's load I figured it was time to do a U-turn and head home. Just made it back dry before the storm hit our roof.....and boy did it hit!
