Tree Machine and me have come up with a few ideas of mods on smaller chippers around 6 inch

I reckon if ya got to use chippers big chippers are great, plenty of grunt, powerful hydraulics, they will real in plenty and spit it out fast.

But what if you want a light, maneuverable around by hand, cost effective chipper to chip brush not fire wood then lets put a few things together...here

This is a few ideas TM was kicking around

Onboard splitter, throttle control at the back, adjustable engine cover, third knife in the disc (or four?), flow-control for the infeed speed, what else.... autofeed Plus, vise posts front and back, 14" turf tires, swiveling front caster wheel jack, some other jack mounts to make the chipper jackable and a pull-outable, retractable tarp system for under the back underside of the chipper. Brakes...
