Chipper v scaffold!

[mistahbenn]

Yeh lucky mate! 2 hyears ago one of the knives on our 15 inch Woodsman sheared off, and went thru, causing 15$k worth of damage, had to be pretty much rebuilt. Horrible times! You'll just need a new set of blades by the looks of it.

it would probably be worth while to check the drum over using flaw detection spay

[Goaty]

I wouldn't be suprised if a fracture elsewhere. Or something out of true.

[Robert_S]

not too bad mate, enough to be a hassle though.

 

its a ducker/tp they are built to last, set of blades and it will be fine, mine went and the blades let go and half of them ended up in the chip box and caused a leak on the drive motor, cleaned all the rough edges off it, new blades and new motor and away it went and that was ages ago

When you see 8" of beech disappear in seconds, surely a bit of metal can't be that diferent?

[Buzzsurgeon]

Was that an ally scaffold pole?

[Stephen Blair]

Steel!, someone had placed it over a sapling and the tree kept growing , that's how it got chipped, it must of been about 20 feet up, we chipped a clump of hazel.

Anyhoo, new blades on, everything hunky dory!

What size is that Ducker?

[Stephen Blair]

The 200. 8", the size below yours , the jump to the 250 is about double though in production easy I would say.

Those blades held up well!
