It seems that my wife doesn't care much for the
saa trees in our garden and she keeps cutting them
back. In May, she cut off almost all the branches
but as you can see from these photos, they soon grew
back. The bark to make our paper is taken from branches about 5 cm in diameter so you can easily see that this is a renewable and sustainable resource. |

Safety First
Among the many things we had to do (and are still doing!) when we moved, was to put in 3-phase electricity for our paper calendering machine. Someone eventually
showed up to do the connection from the power lines and as you can see, he showed the typical Chiang Mai "mai pen rai" attitude towards safety. Plastic sandals
with homemade iron crampons to climb the pole; no rubber gloves; sitting directly on the wires carrying who knows how many volts with a variety of metal tools
hanging off his belt and, of course, no safety harness. Well, at least it wasn't raining.
