Hi Josh, looking at your feed from ages ago when you were looking for advice on a new track chipper as I am looking into track chippers atm. Interesting as you mentioned your jenson 530 struggled a bit with spruce tops, which to be fair are up there with the toughest arb waste for chippers to deal with. I too have plenty of spruce tops to chip and often wet in Scotland.  I'd be grateful of any advice on this.

I have my eye on the jenson spider, but even second hand 1000 pus hrs is at the edge of my budget. Maybe this would handle spruce better as it an 8 inch chipper.

Also the ability to offset tracks so you can run on slopes is an advantage, along with ground clearance.

At the other end is an older Timberwolf 190, the appeal of these ro me is the older stuff was made better and are more reliable with a good horse power engine, although they are now old with 1000-2000 hrs.

Then there the Timberwolf 230 which may be the sensible option, although I fear they may be not built to the spec desired for such an aggressive chipper.  ????

Thanks in advance.
