Greenmech or Jo Beau??

[MaxJ]

ha ha my bro in law has a boxer who he wants to train as one, he eats everything!

nice rottie btw, how old? give the springer a chance amazing how easy it is to train them, theyre bloody clever really. even if they do come across dumb!!

[MaxJ]

cant really fault the greenmech tbh. you will have some teething probs but it will be you not the chipper. some ramps, a pusht big brush for hedging and jaggies, and sit back and watch the jobs roll in and your wallet fill up, the stress will drain away and more time for everything else.

 

forgot what we were supposed to be talking about:lol:

do you have much work with people just wanting you and chipper ie not chipping something youve cut down?

[Stephen Blair]

yip, and i usually end up doing the rest of the work because i can do it so much cheaper than they thought and they have usually lost the notion, but i will insist if the trees or bushes look crap that i will ony chip if they pay me to fix their mess. lol

George was about a year old in the photo, He's filled out a bit since. I sometimes think spaniels just play dumb so they can get away with more:laugh1:

Jo Beau M400 is the better machine, particularly if choosing the lower powered Greenmech. The latter is easier to move around tho. But in an independant review the M400 was the top of all the small chippers (see thread "the wee chipper club"). I am obviously biased because I have a JB but my local dealer stocks Greenmech and I personally didn't like it! Ha - now that's done it! Folks won't speak to me anymore!!
