I have a Mitts and Merrill chipper that I am thinking of selling. It is definitely a powerful and dependable drum style chipper that will chip brush as quick as you can feed it. It has a staggered knife pattern that helps it feed much smoother than a chuck and duck.
The attachments are now working, but the images of the chipper are small. Send me a PM for larger images. Also, you can view the listing for the chipper on treetrader at http://equipment.treetrader.com/index.php?a=2&b=16722
I recently upgraded to a new Woodsman 730 and am thinking about selling my 2004 Mitts and Merrill k-16 chipper. The machine has around 1150 hrs on an 85 hp cummins diesel engine. It has a new drive belt, the oil and all the filters have recently been changed. It is a simple, dependable drum...
It's starting to no longer be that fun for me. I've spent close to 20 years learning as much as I can about trees. I have 2 forestry degrees, am certified as an arborist and as a tree risk assessor. But now I am losing work to companies that use to mow grass and don't have a clue about tree...
In my area lowballers are no longer those working without insurance and being paid in cash. Now there are legitimate companies constantly underbidding as Variable said "to stay busy." This is taking the profit out of the arb business.
To run a successful tree business has less to do with what...
The Mitsubishi Fugo looks like a nice truck and I've heard they are very reliable. I looked up the specs and the GVW is only 14,050 lbs. and the the GVCW is 21,765 lbs. This is not enough truck to handle a chip box, load of chips and pull a chipper.
I started with an F450 chip truck and then...
I went ahead and bought the 12 inch chipper - the 730. I have been pulling a Mitts and Merrill chipper with my F550 the last few years. It only weighs around 4k.
If anyone is interested I may decide to sell the Mitts and Merrill chipper. It is a 2004 model with a 84 hp cummins diesel and...
My local dealer priced a 2012 Woodsman 12x at around $32k and a 2012 15x at $40k. Is this a fair price or do dealers usually drop prices to clear out last years models.
Also, I have a Ford F550 7.3l diesel chip truck with a capacity of around 12 yards. The 12x weighs around 5200 lbs and the...
I have a BMG grapple mounted on my Boxer 427. I have been using the setup for 4 years. I replaced a hydraulic hose that got pinched once and after that I wrapped the vulnerable area with tite seal hose protector. Problem solved.
I took the course in Virginia this past November. The information is great and time will tell if the certification is valued by my clients. Read the book beforehand and stay focused during the long class schedule and you will pass the test. One thing to consider is that you will need to be...
Price reduced to $150. The reason I am selling the saddle is that I ordered a medium not realizing that you need your measurement above the hip rather than waist. I need a size large. The saddle is in brand new condition.
New Tribe Pro-Gear II saddle size medium. Brand new condition. Retails for $264. Here is a link to the saddle on the New Tribe website.
