Sounds more like what I'm looking for, the elusive middle ground. Will try and do a bit of research and see what I can find.

Had a quick look at Wallenstein but their website is a bit dodgy. I did get on but looking at the smaller models, they are very light, only 145kg for the entire machine verses 400 kg for a timber wolf. I know there's a price difference but thats a lot of metal that's missing.

Have also been keeping an eye out for pto chipper similar budget, 9 or 10 inch. We could sometimes use an extra chipper and have a second tractor that’s not used a lot.

For that sort of money it’s probably not worth selling even if only used occasionally.

Branch-logger sounds like a good idea

From web research I'm liking the look of the Woodland Mills WC 68 & 88.

Both reasonable prices and look to be decently put together .

I do note the 88 says min power requirement of 30hp which may steer me to the 68.

I have 2 tractors I can use for this, 35hp & 80hp with the 35hp machine having big flotation tyres so I can get into the wood in the winter and not cause a mess.

Any personal experience with either of these machines?

Welmac in Lincolnshire used to bring in a branch logger. I have a client who has an old but little used chipper but it really needs a grands worth of safety bar to buy and fit! Make sure that whatever you buy does comply with current H&SE regs....
