    Dude that's a nightmare. I had a pin off a clevis once, and a decorative flower pot holder get in before and luckily only chip blades. Im terrified we are gonna loose a blade on a 20xp or 2090. I honestly try not and chip the bottom 10ft of any trunk wood because of this. A good metal guy can...

    A lot of this is the reason we buy a lot of equipment. 200k$ piece of machinery at some point is a lot cheaper than people that don't wanna work. by the time you pay workers comp and everything on a good climber its like 3-4k a month at least. you can spend 300-400k for that. a really good...

    We get most of it off land clearing. tree crews it's hard to get that much. Most of it comes off land clearing sites. It takes almost 8-10 acres of a lot of wood to get 10k yards. During the winter I have a big bandit we take around and chip tops with for a few months. I'll put some pictures up...

    So people know we're to go I have it parked off the side of a highway. Guys come tomorrow to see if they wanna place bulk orders they get to see it run color mulch. We're offering some deals on orders say over 10k yards. So we sent a promotion out to all the wholesale yards to come check it out.

    It all goes in it really doesn't suck any back up. Some of the larger machines use a lot more. You pretty much have to have a natural water supply to do it. If you pay for the water you can go through 10k gallons a day it will eat up a lot of cash. In the picture you'll see the clear tank...

    I'll be around tomorrow but if you know anyone that wants it that's awesome I just got the sock portion rolling since we had the grinder to make the correct filler material the sock machine wasn't to costly. I'm trying to stay away from using tractor trailers. So I'm thinking about building...

    When your ready to upgrade come see mine I'll sell it probably by the time you are looking for one. I'm the only person to ever run it. When I got the truck I rebuilt everything. Loader has less than 2k hours on it. I wouldn't sell it but I need a much larger one now because it has a side job of...
