@evo didn't you start a thread? I can't find it.
Olympia is a powerful magnet for neurodiversity.
ADHDers, AudhDHDers, autistics flock to The Evergreen State College. Many stayed in Olympia, since the late 1960 or early 70s increasing the genetic pool, to my unconfirmed reasoning.
I'm...
@surveyor Can we please get a concise update on models and best uses of each?
I'll looking at an SRS main, MRS rarely device and/ or a lanyard positioner.
Thanks.
What do you know? Observe? Consider about spiral grain?
I saw a conifer near Mt. St. Helens, laying in Coldwater lake, fallen post-explosion. There was a cavity on the side. There was straight grain inside with a shell of spiral on the outside.
Beware stumpshot and spiral grain.
It's weird.
I just saw another "oh, I shoulda..." video by the same YTer who had screwed up many jobs.
Poor judgment and unprepared.
"Shoulda put a rope in it" instead of trying to push a big top...seems like "I shoulda been prepared with wedges and pounder and not relied on groundworkers to...
I see that @flyingmosstreen has this chipper, too.
I ran a pile of brush through my newly aquired demo machine with 46 hours of use.
So far, so good.
More machine-feedable than I would have guessed.
Powerful at 59hp. Compact and lightweight.
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.
Not sure on nomenclature.
Thoughts on wire rope or 5/8" stable braid as a skyline. If like to move the 450 pound chipper about 75' across the forest. Tall trees are around. Headed downhill to work site, then back up to the road at the end.
I could probably reduce the weight by 100 pounds...
I have a Lot of tight access jobs where chips can stay onsite.
My miniloader has 15 gpm flow IIRC, powered by a 32hp Diesel.
I'm curious about Mini-loader chippers.
I'm also considering a Eliet or similar.
Thanks for any input.
