Bloody big chipper

[Leyburn Lad]

I have felled on front of PB's big chipper you forgot to say that when you are 20metres away you cant hear your own saw running at full revs because its so loud.

 

Was that on the rail.

Reminds me of the Bruks that turned up on site clearing an embankment nr Cambridge, we were sweating our nads off force feeding a stupid little Timberwolf blackthorn, and this one is just crane feeding it in, cleared their whole site in about 20mins, the operator mopped his brow sarcastically at the end of his "work"! Most depressing day of my life!

A couple of years ago they where limited to 20". They have bigger Dymax ones now and the limit is the slew machine they are on.

 

 

Big hardwoods also cause probs as they need delimbing

More than forestry rates and about 6 hours a day it was a MOD fuel depot and getting in and out was a pain.

 

My groundie did lots with them for 18 months but hated the travel.
