from the info on youtube:

all elements are made from scrap or car parts example: blades from car suspension springs;

they have made cover for it will be a part of chipbox

diesel cosumption less than 2 litre for 3m3 (wow)

When are they going to paint it orange?

 

Pale orange or a darker shade?

i think it would suit a nice light green

[Pete Hart]

imagine how long it would take to chip any serious pile of brash with that thing?!

Not to mention the white finger you would get using it!

[timberbear]

Basic, low maintenance machine, no hydraulic fluid to spill, it's the way forward, I'm getting a bag under mine to collect the chip.

With that block bearing and straight blades - it has to be pale orange. If it was pale green - then it would be covered in guards, stickers and have something a bit more innovative about it!

A PTO will wrap 424' of boot lace in one minute at 540RPM and 785' at 1000RPM.

 

It will also twist an arm/leg around the shaft 9 times a second at 540RPM/16 times at 1000RPM.

 

Grind skin/muscles/tendons/break bones in less than three-fourths of a second when caught in an unshielded PTO.

 

Modern machines have an engine stop each side to be more safe.

 

Think of the above before using a dangerous homemade version:thumbdown:

Very economical machine, only one bolt to do on each blade. Thats also a time saver it would take four times as long to change em if they used all the blade holes.
