Timely question...just read thru a thread pulled back up from 2009
I REALIZE THIS THREAD IS GOING ON 7 YEARS OLD!!!
Has anyone ever heard of one of these? My neighbor has one in pretty good shape, and I tried to call the number on the decal affixed to it, no luck. Just rang and rang. Did a google search for Olathe Chipper, also no luck.
It is a beast and I want to buy it, but I am worried that I will never get parts or service.

But this is also my situation.
Does anyone run one?
Have you repaired it?
How easy is it to work on?
Do you have pics?
The CL ad I'm working with doesn't even have pics.
OK it's timely. How about some input on the question?
Did anyone see that this thread started in 2002? :laughing:
...Just couldn't resist.
Some good ideas here- I've seen some resurrections based on a simple "hey, did you make any more progress on that project/build?". Perhaps a PM to the OP would be more helpful in those cases. Hard however, to figure out what would be a good generic time frame to even have the "pop up" of "it's been 6 months...do you want to continue with post".
Of course, it's always fun to watch reruns years after the initial broadcast....
That is exactly what we did on another forum I frequent. Works well. About the only abusers we get are people who have not figured out how to start a new thread.I like the simple "warning you are about to post to a thread that is over 6 months old, are you sure?" idea. Maybe that feature could be added.
