  1. Hey Git Just been down there today and was thinking the same thing all the poplar rings as well Dump the crap in the dogs yard
  2. Has no one got any chipwood for sale at all You arborists could get a wagon full of conifer together
  3. I have customers looking for around 5000 tons of chipwood every year We need around 1000 asap Please pm as soon as possible I can take willow , poplar and conifer
  4. How do you rate the dragon boilers ? I am thinking of getting one
  5. Tom yes I am doing 100 tons a day I chip for a guy every week we do 100 tons , 4 wagons of wet timber in 9 hours , about an hour of that is spent waiting to push the pile up So really it is 100 tons in 8 hours , which averages 12.5 per hour So I have a good bench mark to go from for the new machine I have it on go pro to time the difference , and how to feed the machine
  6. it was an 8-400 but I wore it out the new 10-500 comes on Thursday but saying that the opening is 800 high the drum is 500 so it will chip a solid bit of timber 500 but you can reject it and turn the log over
  7. Jon wat make chipper does your mate run
  8. It has been chipped it runs 197 at the pto A lot of the big masseys and deere are difficult to get a turning seat in them I really need over 300 hp there is a nice magnum 310 I have seen
  9. I of 2 people who ran the cl;ass tractors and have both sold them and bought fendts
  10. Its a heizohack I hear so many bad reports about fendts and lack of torque , high hours and expensive By all accounts they are very good farm tractors but maybe not as good on a chipper ????
  11. Its an 04 I need to nearly double the amount of chip I produce in the day but it looks like I will need more horsepower than the t 213 so it looks like an s series or magnum I think
  12. I need a bit more horsepower so am thinking of upgrading my old t170 to a t 213 Does anybody run one or have heard any good or bad points Thanks
  13. Tom you can up the power on your tractor a bit it does help My old 8400 runs 160 at chipper speed I tried a NH 250 on trial and it was no better than my t170
  14. John I run a heizohack 8-400 with a valtra and roofmount You are right most estates only have storage of up to 100 tons per chip session The 8-400 is defenatly the one to go for
  15. Tom what tractor do you use to feed the heizo ?
  16. Was that Nick Ridley he has a new one , that is the one I am thinking of getting
  17. Darlington what machine did he get in the end

  21. I am going to upgrade my Heizohack chipper this year , just wondering if the mus max or eschlblock are any better at the moment any thoughts please
  22. Yes an mot would be better or even some basic training Now I drive tractors all the time , for instance at night why do some drivers insist on using rear facing white work lights to illuminate there trailer , dazzling traffic
  23. I am looking for some one with a tractor and timber trailer in the Sutton bank area to move around 100 tons of chipwood every 3-4 weeks a few hundred yards to a farm , anybody interested ?
