Smallish Crane fed tracked chipper?

[Cuttingedge]

Now you have got me thinking, tracked bandit 75 with crane on think that could work. Just had a 75 put on tracks

:thumbup1: Now there's an interesting project, you have my attention.

For utility work it would be great, one guy felling and moving along the other sat on the chipper following after..

 

My thoughts too. Clearing Topped hedges would be easier.

A couple of people have asked about a smallish crane on a 1928, we haven't decided against it but if it was 2,500+kgs and, say, £50k, how many can I put in my sales forecast? That is the basic question...building them is the easy part of the job!

I'll have the demo model, seriously though I'm interested

Make one and all the utilities guys will want one..... £50k sounds rather allot..

What is a 1928 without the crane?

This machine is available for hire from 1 of our customers, not the best video as the brash was not stacked for crane feeding but you get the idea:thumbup1:

much cheaper and almost as handy would be a kinda a-frame type boom thing with a hydraulic winch so you could winch big stuff and bundles and drop them right in the feed tray , mounted on a sub frame with blade/ground anchor. could make a decent sized tracked chipper into an easily fed, assisted felling and extraction machine... maybe

Maybe....
