Wood Chipper

[oldballs]

Rwatkins...........In case you missed that......Gittyup's machine is both a "chipper" and a "Shredder". The chipper (with a knife) can take up to 5" limbs....whereas the shredder (separate hopper with hammers) takes only 1 1/4" brush etc.

Well, I'm learning something new every day! That is handy. Merry Christmas all.

Always good to get one large enough that you don’t need to limb up a stewardess before chipping !

Here in Waco, Texas we are clearing the typical cedar, scrub oak, mesquite and some elm, and using the Woodmax 9900 attached to a CK4010. Its works better than the Vermeer chipper (with 26hp Kohler engine) we used and just recently sold. Just cleared a 20' wide x 520 foot long corridor for new power lines in only 2 days work. Then stumps ground down and removed on 3rd day.

I checked the MacKissic site. The TPH-123 is just over $2,000. The WM is near $3,000 is only a chipper and apparently hard to service the blades.

Good info guys. Still trying to find the right one/price point. $2k ain't bad.
