How in the world do we arrive at a comment such as yours after watching this fantastic video. I'm fairly certain you're in the wrong place mate.

No, an experienced deer stalker built it for me. I would say make it wide enough for two people, unless you like being on your own for long periods of time. And be careful. I know of at least one person who has ended up in a wheel chair by being careless in a high chair. Safety first, always. You can also get mobile ones made. Or buy a prefab mobile one.

I turned this video on because I am a woodlot owner interested in improving my woodland management.  I'm afraid I didn't learn anything here and I doubt that even the greenest viewer would.  I was hoping to learn what you have done to improve your woodland to achieve your goals. You mentioned spraying young trees and harvesting some at 50 year and that if you plant a tree now you will never see it mature. I hope that doesn't stop you from planting for your children's children and the life that dwells in a forest. You state "The forest we are in is a mature forest that will probably decay or be felled within the next 5 or 10 years."  That is not forest management!  That is destruction of an environment. That forest could live forever if it were not slash cut as was shown in one of the picture.

it's kinda ironic to talk so much about protecting everything when spraying weed killer…

You don't need allow game shooting on your wood, stop trying to flaccidity justify what you do in economic terms. You come across as a man with cognitive dissonance regarding what you allow at least that is something.

Government agencies have a lot to do with criminal elites they are one and the same.

What has that got to do with woodland management?

Euphuisms for killing we human animals use.  If we are going to kill another species lets say KILL!

You are wrong. Felling a mature plantation and replanting the site is what forestry is about. There are many reasons: for example, plantations planted 50 years ago are ecologically useless as they have no life on the wood floor and involve virtually only one species, eg, scots pine. Also, forestry has to be commercially viable. Otherwise, you have a garden not a forest.
