Chainsaw Course Completed in the Sunshine ☀️

Earlier this week we delivered a successful LANTRA Award course in:
Chainsaw Maintenance, Cross-cutting, Basic Felling of Trees up to 200mm.

We were pleased to welcome members of the grounds staff from Stover School to our Devon venue — a hardworking and skilled team who stayed focused and professional throughout.

The warm weather certainly added to the challenge at times, but with plenty of water breaks and good spirits all round, it was a great few days of learning and sharpening skills.

Well done to everyone involved — great effort and a brilliant result all round.

Chainsaw Refresher Success!

Last week we delivered a successful LANTRA Refresher Course in Chainsaw Maintenance, Cross-cutting, Felling & Processing Trees up to 380mm.

A great group of experienced foresters joined us at our Devon venue to sharpen their skills, refresh best practice, and stay up to date with safety and industry standards.

Fantastic effort all round — well done to everyone who took part!

Plenty of hands-on practice, expert instruction, and a great result!

We also used high-quality fuel from to support machine care and keeping everything running cleanly throughout.

Well done! A great effort!

Chainsaw Maintenance Pays Off!

We recently travelled to the brilliant team at Oak to deliver a Chainsaw Maintenance & Crosscutting Refresher on-site at their premises.

The candidate used a Stihl 046—still going strong after more than 27 years!
Thanks to regular care and proper maintenance, this classic saw is not just surviving, it's thriving.

It's a great reminder that with the right upkeep, even older machines can deliver excellent performance for decades. Whether you're working in forestry or managing your own land, routine maintenance means safer, more efficient, and longer-lasting tools.

Got a trusty old chainsaw still earning its keep? We’d love to hear about it!

🌲 Chainsaw Training in Action with LandWorks! 🌲

We were proud to deliver our LANTRA Certificate of Competence in Chainsaw Maintenance & Cross-cutting to two candidates from LandWorks last week here at Devon Land Skills.

They got stuck in with hands-on learning — from essential maintenance to safe cross-cutting techniques — and came away with the confidence and skills to use a chainsaw safely and professionally.

Always great to support organisations like LandWorks that are making a real difference through practical training and personal development.
