    Bandit Chipper possible options - and why.

    Anyone tempted to drag through sensitive areas might want to look up the (Slidder?). A thin plastic mat made to stack on and drag things around. A client bought one to drag things behind his garden tractor. It almost looks like an item I could use at times.

    Someone please design an industrial level version of the fiskar telescoping pole pruner

    I've got one coming just for the odd bigger cut when doing fine pruning. Interesting, I didn't know the Fiskars 6 to 12 Big Stick had a slipping issue - I've never used the polesaw attachment with mine. My brother has trees at his house and mentioned sharpening the saw blade. I said don't do...

    Someone please design an industrial level version of the fiskar telescoping pole pruner

    Fiskars had a UPX86 model that showed up on Youtube with some hard to watch, little pertinent info videos. I can't find that one to buy anywhere. They said it could do 1.25 inch cuts. I wonder if that didn't get canceled in favor of a unit I see on Amazon that says it can do 1.25 inch...

    Euro tracked chippers.

    By the way, after Mick and a few others posting here with personal experience with Euro chippers I would go to that Euro based Arb forum and search exhaustively what people experience with them there. (Also great for any Euro based equipment insights long before released here in the states...

    Alec, your contribution is great. If you watch the video...Mick is not wrong about the presentation of the chipper from Baur (sp). I think anyone selling equipment for our profession should either go out and put in more time with it (I've seen Baur throw a few sticks through used chippers he...

    Mick if I was ever tasked with picking a solid work mate just from a person's comments - you would do.

    Echo DCS-2500T

    Just so you know there is a world of difference between the T540i and the T542i's cutting ability if you compare new chain to new chain. I thought, "what difference could a clutch being added make"? But, I think they are delivering more power and using battery a bit faster too. If you ever...

    Echo DCS-2500T

    The customer reviews are possibly insightful. I'll get my bar length checked today and order one.

    Euro tracked chippers.

    When I did serious shopping for a chipper I remember thinking each salesman I talked to should go out and spend a week or two chipping under various conditions. Many seemed to have never chipped a single stick and didn't realize the idiotic things that were coming out of their mouths.

    That's my idea of " getting it done" personally.

    tool/chainsaw lanyard attachment options while in a bucket truck?

    Phenomenal contribution to do that test and put it up - thank you. I wonder if it is breaking the zip ties, essentially, one at a time? So adding more gains little. Perhaps going to beefier zip ties? Separately TreeStuff has break away lanyards with two bucklesnaps that they say reliably...

    AIs are Talking about Tree Work

    Ha...if so, that didn't take long, a short hop to other forms of what an impediment the human race is.

    Euro tracked chippers.

    I thought you would have an informed perspective Mick. On tree work I've always tried to hold myself to using a piece of equipment under work conditions before buying a similar unit. Since the labor or personal effort put in will always be the biggest investment in using a unit I've traveled 7...

    2013 bandit 75xp bad jamming problem behind feeding wheel

    Yes, armchair. Anyone who wants top end results should gamble $10. Might well have to start from new knives to get away from the handicap of the backbevel.

    I see some of the other YT vids of it chipping much more aggressively than the guy feeding it at a chipper display booth. Being fanatical about "no dirty material" has its rewards.

    2013 bandit 75xp bad jamming problem behind feeding wheel

    Anyone want a new set of 75 XP knives and a couple of bolts for $50 to cover shipping and change? By the way I dress the knives to keep at better performance on my chipper(s). I have been using a "Garden Sharp" hand dresser that only dresses the cutting face for almost a year. So much better...
