A handy little tool

As part of the transplant we're doing right now had to fell two small Albizia saman raintrees, chipped what we could and were left with the stems....just happened to have a 20t excavator for the earthworks so of course had him load the logs.

HA! what sort of chipper you using boa?

Steve's got a chipstar 14", its very good except the air intake faces forward and you know what that means...spend more time cleaning the grill than anything else, cause the wind will very rarely favour us when we chip. He could get a baffle for it I guess, maybe if enough $$$'s come out of our current works.
