Default Re: Fire Damaged Gear

I agree, I think that is one of the most dramatic changes is the feed rollers.

There is so much pain involved with chipping with the oldies. I had a 16 inch, 8 cyl Mitts and Merrill bought new in 1975 and sold in 2000 for a Vermeer BC l250 A (autofeed) with curbside and ll0 hp diesel.

To chip dead pinoak, crabapple, osage orange, mulberry,etc. with an C&D on a real cold morning you feel what it is like to be a cage fighter.
