First time chipper...

[jdodger]

Hey all this is my first thread so be gentle.... iv recently set up on my with my cousin and were lookin at buyin in a chipper as weve been hiring TW125 but find were pricing ourselves too high after weve covered ins/running costs etc and a small wage which were putting straight back in purchasing new kit and advertising. Weve just won our first largish job and were going to be looking at purchasing a chipper. Were lookin at spending around 5k ish for a 6in around 750kg as i have a post 97 licence. Theres a Daneuip bulechip at a dealer ive seen just in our budget does anyone use one and are they a decent machine..? or would you recomend another machine..?

A TP might be a good buy for you - reliable etc:icon14:

Bluechip is a good simple machine, its a copy of the old dosko, Parts are easy to get hold of etc etc. Also has a 9" square opening, so got for feeding brushy stuff into.

Nod at treeworker still has one and swears by it.

Blue chips are good simple chippers sort of no fills but that makes them good. I would aslo look at a TP150 good little machine.
