I have spent 1000’s of hours mulching and forestry tilling . I scan videos all the time looking for ways to become more efficient . Every now and then I see something like this . They are not all bad . Look at this . It is home made and like it or not you have to salute the skill of the guy that built it https://youtu.be/hR_YOT0Dzwc?list=PLgFeMF4ZIMm64TVVArKCRgpjXyStARfjb I talked to this guy and believe it or not this machine started out as a bell buncher .

That machine seems to get a new owner quite often.It just sold again at auction last week fro $120k nzd

I think the SS extreme mulchers are the best in the industry. Absolute destruction of trees and wood. View attachment 457525

Have you run these? I really like this style too... I've put a decent amount of hours on a drum mulcher, but I'd like to try this out. My only concerns would be, how much Hi-Flow will run it efficiently? My current machine has 30 GPM.

I have not. I've watched every video there is of them and they seem to be able to do more and better than any drum mulcher or flail. They pull in 6"+ trees and out comes wood chips in seconds. I think their cheapest was about $16,000 but if you have a clearing business it would pay for itself.

I am sure those teeth need replacing but their specs seem unreal and when I get the money I'll buy one even just for fun.

Their mini might (smallest) is rated for 20- 30gpm. . It weighs 1724 lbs. Also solid parts, no belts or pulleys. Looks amazing.
