Wraptored up half way and made a notch facing backwards and made the back(front?) cut leaving a 2-3" hinge. Felt a bit spooky coming down with that thing half cut?? Yes I had a rope in the top tied off behind..

Heres a new to me system for helping with clean up. Big, strong 12x12 tarp with lifting loops on the corners, we load that sucker up and wheel loader it to the truck.......:)
Yes I do believe it does. When you put a big piece in there you can kind of hear it slice wood in a swishing noise as opposed to a chop/bang of a normal drum. It is a lot smoother action. I drug all those trees to the chipper through the dirt and it is still chipping great with good chip...
Mostly poplar and ailanthus, area was logged 25 years ago so nothing huge, mostly 14-18".
2005 conehead 510 with about 2200 hours, 140 hp cat. I lucked out and paid $20K
Well this friend is very wealthy. I considered doing it for free but decided it was going to be a lot of wear and tear on the gear....... Also it seems whenever I do stuff for free something bad happens during the job so ends up costing me money. Anyone else notice this????
37 gallons of fuel to chip, less than 5 for the wheel loader to drag all the trees and feed it.....
This job was for a friend so I didnt make out like a bandit, $1000 for the day. He was very happy with the progress, view clearance.
