Now that is what I call a Great Video. The Old Ways have power, knowing that power gives you power. Fuel, building materials, arrow shafts, boundary setting, food. the list goes on and on. I love the progress; and the awareness of where there was less. Now all that is needed; is patience, and some pruning, guiding. you know, just that TAOutdoorsiness. You are on the right path. True woodsmanship Sir! Well Done indeed. m out

Excellent that you are practicing the ART of hedge laying and videoing the progress, I was lucky enough as a child to live in an area where there was still plenty of laid hedges around fields or dry stone walls, the farmers had resisted the urge to rip out natural hedges in the process of enlarging fields.

Thank you for your hard work and dedication. Sometimes the employees at my work just up and leave 3 weeks into their new job. Some don t last that long. It s refreshing to see someone actually working on something consistently and getting the job done. No complaining or running around upset. Thanks man.

Have done this with willow, they're nearly impossible to kill, and they make a great hedge. Super flexible, easy to weave back into itself, and extremely durable as a fence. Thanks for showing us your efforts to keep on ancient technique alive.
Cheers.

different regions have different methods but the principle is the same, when i was taught hedge laying, there was no interest in it, farms were still removing the hedgerows its mostly hawthorn up here in cumbria

good job. could you recommend me a couple folding saws? my thinking is its blade should be at least 30cm long, and of course I'm looking for EU supplier, importing from North America is horribly expensive.

Is the diameter of the tree you laid down downhill, comparable to others that you laid down uphill?
Diameter/pleaching cut could be conflating variables to the conclusion that laying down hill is an issue.

Do you think the trees cut sideways (not the ones growing on the main trunk or stump) will survive winter and keep growing sideways, next year? Would be interesting to watch their progress.

That's cool stuff. When i was in Costa Rica I noticed that most of the fencing was thick and living, much like what you did. It was very effective, sturdy, and long term.

You are a great steward to your land. Owning some acreage myself with my family it's amazing to see how much you can do on your own or just with your pops help

Must be so rewarding to see the progress and to connect with your heritage. Doing a task that someone was doing 1000 years ago is an incredible experience.
