I have the BBC62. I've found it easiest to fill the fuel tank by swinging the chip chute open... (I use a bungee cord to keep it from swinging back at me) then I can stand on the Y of the tow bar to more easily reach with the gas can, see what I'm doing and not spill. I also assembled mine solo!
Congrats on the addition to another equipment on your homestead, that chipper really looks big and does a nice job. By the way, love your cool style of tucking your pants into those cowboy boots 😉
I’m glad you got that. My choice was the Woodland Mills 3 point chipper. Up front advantages are one less engine to maintain and four less tires to potentially go flat. I think it was easier to assemble. Thanks for the review.
We use a PTO chipper. All of them will bog down and struggle with dry, rotten wood. We make 100% of our garden soil with wood chips as well as mulch for our fruit trees. The soil takes at least a year but it's worth it. I like that chipper but the gasoline engine, and a few of the design flaws you mentioned, make me glad mine is a PTO
Dang, beaten to it by a day..... Yes that comes to mind quickly when you see a video on wood chippers, though I myself favor something I call "The Barge".
We don’t chip our wood, but we do add it to the bottoms of our raised garden beds or into our compost pile. My wife LOVES roses, so a few years ago I devoted a 4 large raised beds to plant 4 climbing rose bushes against one of our rock retaining walls and 4 rose bushes on the next tear down. I put large branches of Douglas Fir in the bottom of the 4 raised beds and added Topsoil to fill the beds. This year our 8 rose climbing and bushes have gone crazy. I’ve also planted Rose Trees this year on the 3rd tear down, but planted them with Topsoil only, so it’ll be interesting to see how well they do. We put down commercial grade weed barrier in different areas around our property and drove up on a portion of the WA BDR where they have harvested a few acres of Douglas Fir trees and taken the bark off. It’s free bark, so we’ve loaded our truck a few times to cover the weed barrier. I must admit that the bark doesn’t look as good as what you buy from Home Depot, but it’s free and we live in the country so it really doesn’t matter to us.
Thanks. Yea, I have a ton of dry stuff laying around. Hopefully I will make it through all of it soon before I have any green stuff that needs chipping.
Did you test the angle on the outblow to get higher?... on that blow angle you had it been difficult load a trailer or truck not to spill to the outside.
Just got the 6 inch one. Love it. Question, does the hour meter wire get stripped and inserted into the spark plug wire? Direction didn't seem that clear
Thank you. I wish you would have said what that wood was - Pine, Oak, cedar, .......... makes a big difference what will go through it. I don't want to duplicate another motor on my property because it is hard enough in CA due to ethanol in everything. I can not go a year without something needing a carb rebuild due to ethanol (yes, I take all the proper precautions we have been dealing with this crap longer than any other state in the union). So I would like to use my tractor's PTO (28 HP) to spin a chipper that is strong like yours. What do you recommend?
It was sweetgum and pine that I was chipping. Both dry so much harder than normal. For a PTO chipper, I was looking at a Woodland Mills. They seemed to be the most reasonably priced.
Nice chipper. The chips are always nice when the blades are new, but in time it will look like the stuff you get from Chipdrop. Appreciate the reviews though. Sure gotta be careful around the feed end of those guys.
@@CountryLivingExperience But would it work if you do the wheels and toe frame first? Would you still have the issue of having to balance the chipper while putting it together? I was just wondering since I might get one and I want to assemble it with less issue of having to balance it.

Was thinking about buying this one, and i think your awesome explainer has sealed the deal for me!
Glad the video was helpful.
Great video
Ordered mine today from Home Depot
Can't wait to put it to use
I have the BBC62. I've found it easiest to fill the fuel tank by swinging the chip chute open... (I use a bungee cord to keep it from swinging back at me) then I can stand on the Y of the tow bar to more easily reach with the gas can, see what I'm doing and not spill.
I also assembled mine solo!
Awesome! Thank you for the tip. That makes sense.
Glad you got yours together by yourself too.
Great informative video.. Thank you for sharing…
Glad it was helpful!
That thing is a beast! For the price it looks to be very cost effective for what it can do.
It is extremely powerful. I am liking it a lot.
Congrats on the addition to another equipment on your homestead, that chipper really looks big and does a nice job.

Thanks
Holy moly, that is a mighty big chipper!
Thank you ❤ 😊
It sure is. I can finally chip the big stuff I have laying around.
@CountryLivingExperience remind to stay on your good side, 😆

You’re welcome. It was honestly a toss up. I looked at that woodland mills and almost got one.
Thanks for the video mine is getting home tomorrow
Very helpful 🙏🙏

Awesome. The chips are very valuable for sure. It was such a close decision for us between it and the pto chipper.
This country needs more wood chippers.

Free bark is great. I wish that was available around here. It is a valuable commodity.
Great video.. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you
Remember that’s dry wood it would be easier to use when the wood is fresh and green😊
Nice size chipper😊
Thanks. Yea, I have a ton of dry stuff laying around. Hopefully I will make it through all of it soon before I have any green stuff that needs chipping.
Maybe a nice ATV to tow it with? That thing is a beast!! Wow not yer average chipper!!😮😊
Thanks. Yea, I think I need something like a Polaris Ranger or similar.
💕💗💕🙏🙏🙏 Have a blessed day 💕💗💕

I didn’t test that. It will angle much higher than what I had it set at.
Just got the 6 inch one. Love it.
Question, does the hour meter wire get stripped and inserted into the spark plug wire? Direction didn't seem that clear
Cool.
Not sure. I did not connect the hour meter.
That looks like a good chipper!
Good so far
That chipper is huge !!! What is the total weight ? looks like a good investment.
It has been a great investment so far. It is about 700lbs.
@@CountryLivingExperience Thank You !

But how does it handle a Fargo Femur???

Why not attach the wheels and toe fame first?
I followed the instructions.

@@rowenadinsmore1 I honestly don't know. Since I had never assembled one before, I just followed their instructions.
You will miss it as soon as something goes wrong, that thing speeds up composting at least by 4 or 5 times faster than normal
Hopefully it will work well for many years.
What kind of gasoline ?
They say use quality gasoline... what kind exactly ?
...92, 89, 87 ??? Arco, Mobil, ...???
87 octane is fine. The brand does not matter.
Looks like u would burn some of that
Out of my price range.
Please Please don’t use your hands while pushing the logs in. Peace and Blessings!
