I’ve never had the chipper clog up from punky wood but the massive mold spore filled cloud that follows the chipping is terrifying. It’s like the movie The Fog.
Cheap motocross tire studs in your tracks are far better than a mat or mesh on a hill/incline of any kind in snow and ice, especially. If you haven’t tried them I highly recommend doing it.
But are you really using mats on snow and ice?
Ice I’m studding my tracks and snow I channel my inner 6 year old driving my tank into a snowy battlefield. Well, at least for the first trip in then it’s back to work.
See, you are asking more questions. Have you talked to a loan agent yet, a rich uncle perhaps? You really need this for all of your island work. It would be ideal. And just like the OP posted no mini required. Think of the niche market that machine would fill nicely. You need this! :rock:
I have been eying a tire bead seater on TikTok shop for $50 something. It’s either going to be a line launcher or a spud gun, maybe both. But certainly not a tire bead seater.
The one above looks well thought out tho.
I think the first part is you justifying the purchase. Do it! You don't have to tell others, you can keep it a secret. Well, the barge captain might see it but that's it. lol
