    I just paid 2.6 for this woodland mills hm126. It came with 15 sharp blades, a bed extension and a welded steel frame that the mill is bolted to very happy with it and they seem to be few and far between second hand

    Felling 30 pines on a development site, most trees had the roots dug out and a lot of them had a significant lean towards the highway which was well within falling distance. Removed the back weight or dismantled to a spar and pulled stems back into the site. Back tomorrow to chip and extract timber for collection with arctic

    We put up a Polly tunnel this year, but late getting going with it but stuffs growing on nicely now. Pictures from a few weeks ago weve got a bed of potato’s in the field which should see us most of the winter

    Until recently I had a timber grab with a diverter valve mounted to the side to switch from grab to rotate, it worked well enough and generally didn’t find switching between the two to restrictive. However, having just had an engcon fitted and being now able to rotate and grab at the same time does make a big difference

    My engcon got fitted yesterday and new grab turned up this morning. Waiting for my new rake with grab pocket to arrive after the weekend. It was an ex demo unit from engcon so saved a few quid on the unit very Impressed

    Yes we can provide basically the same setup but with more powerful tractors

    Maybe a bit more hp needed then, I fill my 12 tonne grain trailer with silage sides on in about 40 mins. Conditions of the blades make a huge difference but they are so cheap there should be no excuse to allow them to affect productivity
  15. John Shutler
    What hp tractor was it on? I basically run the same setup but with a t150 with roofmount crane or put it behind my 185hp Massey and feed with an excavator Big piles like that can sometimes be a pain to get through with the smaller type crane fed machine, personally I prefer to feed the chipper with a excavator and rotating grab when working with piles like that as it’s easier to pull the pile apart and sort it out a little bit though a lot can be down to the operator id be happy to come down your way if you have any more chipping jobs like that

    Just the standard controls, initially I wanted the little joystick type but opted for the traditional and cheaper ones ?

    Out with the new tractor on a chipping job. 50k box makes a big difference for the drive to site
