Chipper Chipper/shredder questions, exploring what I can do with them

[fruitcakesa]

I have a lot of ash, and it's probably a question of when, and not if, the emerald ash borer infestation in New England gets them. That will be a sad day, hope I don't live to see it but it looks grim. Is that the source of your dead ash?

Lots of things besides the EAB have/are killing ash. Only a matter of time till they are gone.
I have been selectively cutting and selling the better trees to a tool handle mill for top dollar before they die to at least get something out of them.
The poorer quality and dead ones go into the firewood pile
