This got sent to my wife.

I've just spent 20min on the phone explaining to her that our chipper is not in the same league and that our working practices are less 'gun ho' than those 'Stateside'

Very sad and tragic news.

 

What make of chipper is it?

[Ty Korrigan]

If I stood on it to cut branches at 63kg I'd break our Quadchip, guess that's a safety feature then...

We have 4 big vermeers at work and having used them nearly everyday for 3 years, I can honestly say I have never felt worried or close to going thru one of them.

Horrible way to go tho, rip
