Hello All,
I bought an unknown Chuck and Duck chipper 2 years for my large property only.
I think it is a mid 70's, with an inline 6cyl 300 Cu In Ford engine.
it can take up to an 8" piece of wood.
It has a drop down plate with release bar attached to the chute for emergency closure but has been seized long ago.
After a little work on it and some use, I wanted to reduce the chip size and stringy wood coming out so I started to take apart the chipper section to check for worn parts.
The 4 x Chipping Knives are in really good condition but the Anvil (Bed Knife),,,, Not so much as seen in these pic's.
There was a large build-up of rust between the anvil and housing and I think it caused the Anvil to crack in a couple spots. I have cleaned and painted all surfaces but now looking for a new Anvil.
Does anyone know if someone still carries these or if I have to make one. I am assuming it is tool steel material along the lines of D2 or A2 in properties.
The Anvil measures .750" x (Should be around 4.5") x 16.125" long with 3 slots.
Regards
Jeff
