Wood Chipper Disclaimer
Wood chippers can be very dangerous or even fatal !!!!
The cutting disk and knives operate at powerful high speed with a great
amount of inertia.
The information and pictures I have posted are just to show what I have
done for myself.
I am not an engineer, professional machinist or professional wood chipper
builder, just a
hobbyist who enjoys building stuff and needed a wood chipper.
I am not saying this is a good design or that the design is safe. It's
just my design that I came up
with. This chipper was not built for heavy duty use but for occasional
use around my 3 acres.
Even though the chipper has a 5" capacity I usually only chip limbs up
to approx. 3" in
diameter. This information if for reference only and I cannot be held responsible
for any misfortunes.
Thanks,
Steve Bedair
