    Chipper drum failure

    Is there non-vested interest in this welder? Does he have a lot to lose if this goes wrong, or is it a little operation? Is this a welding biz worth $0.03M or $3M (arbitrarily). How fast does a drum spin compared to a truck tire?

    How do Americans financial and visibly protest/ endorse such sides of a situation? E.g. If a consumer wanted to buy American, the manufacturer should market it as American Made. E.g. If a consumer wants to boycott a country's product, they can avoid it. They can share a message that they...

    Chipper drum failure

    Losing a lawsuit is crazy expensive. Depending a lawsuit successfully, way more than 10k.

    Chipper drum failure

    Seeing that drum, I wouldn't feed that machine. Bad enough when (extremely rarely) a knife comes loose (likely due to something improper), but a monster drum shrapnel-ing under monster power has death and lawsuit written on it (I'm and arborist not an attorney).

    Chipper drum failure

    I'm curious how close a real world balance gets to truly balanced, and at what amount out of balance it will start to matter.

    Light 14 or 16" narrow kerf bar for 200t or 201t

    I've got Stihl 1/4" pitch on my 193t. Very nice. Stihl and arbsession 1/4" on 2500t and 2511t. I don't know if the 200t would convert due to age, or strength of chain for power in the saws (200t or 201t).

    Light 14 or 16" narrow kerf bar for 200t or 201t

    Any recommendations? I have a good moderate hour 200t with a stock (heavy) b/c. Might buy a new 201 if they can be economically upgraded with drum, bar and chain. Is an .043 clutch drum available for a 200t? Mostly cutting softwood. I'm getting accustomed to 1/4" in 193t and 2511t.
