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
