Some chipping with the new crew

Therrin · 8th May 2008, 12:39 AM

Did some chipping and hauling today. The home owner has been taking pics and videos of the whole process, even burned them to a disc for me.

It's a 25hp Dosko chipper with a 2 cyl Onan engine.
Pretty crappy on power. Makes ya work for it.

damn man, you started as a real newbie and now you already have a full scale crew? How cool is that? Business must be thriving for you... Things out here are goin' great and I'm expecting a bit of a few slow weeks after this month.

25 HP for a chipper is not very much, and it looks as tough the feed opening is really high from the ground or am I looking at it wrong?

yeah the opening is pretty high up. Thankfully we were only feeding pine into it and the stuff was relatively light.

I'm working on getting matching uniforms for the guys.
