AS SEEN ON TV the DR chipper 375 can only handle perfectly straight manicured lumber.

Seriously the marketing video is offensive: https://youtu.be/8RXEFMmaeWA

He might as well be feeding 2x2s off the rack at home depot.

    Or, when local authorities don’t allow burning, just throw it in a pile in a back corner of the property … and let it sit. Over time, the pile grows and grows. But over even more time, it rots and shrinks. And in the meantime, it’s animal and insect habitat, lol.

      If it’s small and you can spread it out (wooded area, on foot paths, etc), it will break down faster. The two inch rule is: if it’s not more than 2" thick and not more than 2" off the ground, it should break down in 2 years.

      My parents had a compost pile. It was big enough that my friends and I would build forts with its components or even make paths through it.

      Eventually my mother started noticing snapping turtles around it and we were no longer permitted to do so!

      Now, or at least last time I was around that property, you wouldn’t know it for anything other than a somewhat odd hill.
