Those Cord King processors look like the fastest on the market today especially with the saw blade instead of the chain saw. How much do they cost?

Hey we have a Eastonmade 48c processor and was over $130k but well worth the money. We demo ones with the chainsaw blade, and just can't keep up with our demands. I'll make a video of the process. This machine is a beast.

Thanks for sharing man, just makes me laugh that you made the effort to show some people see these machines operating that wouldn't normally see them and all of a sudden you are being judged from every angle! "Boy, your shoe laces are shit!" " you are not no1 in the world in the excavator you dip shit!" I didn't hear you claiming to be. Also I'm pretty sure you aren't the only dude that uses the equipment there, you said it was a Saturday, I'm guessing not everyone works Saturdays? Any way I appreciated the video, Cheers

You've got a drainage problem around your work area, which causes issues with the water clogging machinery when mixed with sawdust, bark and other scrap. Some landscaping, possibly along with some gravel would keep the logs and the firewood out of the mud. If it's a low lying area, move to higher ground.

We deliver with a dump trailer we bought back in March. We actually just started the business this will be our first winter.
