[@crazyman3157]

Nice clean up job Bert, Adam and Gavin. Always a good day to get a task done off the endless list of things to do around the yard. 👍🏻

[@BertsCustomCuts]

You got that right! Clean up and make another mess again.

[@davidedwards3734]

Great help you had chipping up those limbs!! Stay Hydrated and Have a Safe Day

[@BertsCustomCuts]

Thanks, you too! Extra hands is always good

[@TonysCoolTools]

Sure makes the job go faster when you have help! I see Gavin showed up at the end to help out. You taught him well😂TCT

[@BertsCustomCuts]

He came out when he got home from school. You'll have to let me know the damages for totes.

[@fixinanddoinstuff2134]

Great chipper ....... bet it didnt come with safety stickers lol Gavin's belch ....... that's awesome😂

[@BertsCustomCuts]

No warning labels it was made in the era where everyone knew that stupid hurts.

[@roncaron-l1r]

Good morning everyone nice to have this Chipper clean everything good work ( Ty Ron

[@chippychippy8291]

Well done, keeping the place neat and tidy! Stay safe

[@BertsCustomCuts]

Thanks, will do! The pile has been moved to a low spot in the field since, and Im sure it will grow massive before fall.

[@kenthorsen4558]

That sure is handy! Nice work guys.

[@BertsCustomCuts]

It sure is. Someday we will have a chipper for onsite at tree jobs.

[@ClarenceObert]

That's a really nice chipper. I saw saying you chipped a lot of good firewood. Well, to me, sometimes it's not worth the effort to cut/sort/stack/haul "some" firewood, than it is to just chip it and be done with it. With all the cookies and odd chunks and knotty stuff that you guys process already, I think you're pretty set for a couple of winters already. BTW: You're getting better at being in front of the camera. 😃

[@BertsCustomCuts]

Basswood isn't the greatest for firewood and chipping is faster.

[@danshouseofsmokeandoutdoor7119]

Looks like the old chipper works good. I broke done went looked at skid loader today be buying it some time this week. Keep up the good work guys.

[@BertsCustomCuts]

Chipper works great may need to pull cutters out to sharpen them. They are getting dull. Skid steers are nice bit I have been looking at getting a mini payloader.

[@danshouseofsmokeandoutdoor7119]

@@BertsCustomCuts there out my price range. There none use in my area. They’re definitely nice for working in someone’s yard.

[@jameschandler2776]

It is funny the way different people see wood. Those large limbs you chipped, I saw a lot of good firewood there

[@BertsCustomCuts]

When we get a chipper to take with to tree jobs, if it fits, it will chip. It's a lot easier to haul when chipped instead of branches.

[@lyleharkness-rv5vf]

Good clean up job 👍 I love chipping

[@BertsCustomCuts]

It's fun chipping big stuff just to see the big chips fly.

[@lyleharkness-rv5vf]

@@BertsCustomCuts ohh yeah!!! 😊

[@annmariekowalski7505]

Nice. A. chipper running off of a pto.

[@BertsCustomCuts]

One for tree jobs is on the list to get. Tractor one is too hard to take with.

[@Garrett572xpg]

Chipped 2 7x14ft dumptrailer loads of spruce and red pines brush. We took down 20 trees at a job. Some red pine limbs were 5" in diameter. I hate chipping dead ash ,spruce and twisted dead jack pine bc it shatters and flys everywhere and whips u all day feeding the chipper. One job was buckthorn and locust trees with thorns tangled in tons of vines it sucked. Keeping a handheld saw by the chipper helps it go smoother

[@BertsCustomCuts]

Pine and spruce smell good when chipping.

[@toddpacheco4748]

Bert,Chris missed out on a lot of fun 🤩 😮😊❤

[@BertsCustomCuts]

He was busy trapping, so he was getting a good workout doing that.

[@rickthelian2215]

Chippers are great 👍

[@BertsCustomCuts]

They definitely are handy and make a small pile from big pile of branches.

[@jasonpeterson9276]

Does your skidloader have a hiflow outlet? If it does i have a stump grinder that we only used a little bit.. has the green teeth on it and is like new yet if your interested it to make some extra money with. Selling it half price what i paid for it.

[@BertsCustomCuts]

We dont have high flow but the main farm has one with high flow and a stump grinder.

[@jasonpeterson9276]

@BertsCustomCuts ok. Sweet deal.. figured id offer it before i throw it on the net ya know..

[@briannelson4493]

Great job with clean up Bert and crew, is your International a 656 I noticed the chip maintains speed.

[@BertsCustomCuts]

Its a 656 and it handles it well.

[@eulerizeit]

Have you considered biochar as an income source?

[@BertsCustomCuts]

I dont have enough hours in a day to do it between full time job and side jobs I do.

[@utbutch13]

What’s the handle you’re giggling on the chipper do?

[@BertsCustomCuts]

The lever controls the feed roller. Pull toward you feeds in push to reverse and stopped in center.

[@waynetharp]

A great opportunity for a nice 🔥🔥 was all chipped up!😢

[@BertsCustomCuts]

There's enough firewood in the yard to still have a fire.

[@robertblacksmith4355]

Great tool to have old days they would just burn all that in a pile!

[@BertsCustomCuts]

There would be some monster piles if we didn't chip it.
