Thanks for that. Very interesting.
Strange that there doesnt seem to be any sort of mandrel for the hammers. I assume that the blade on the face at the inlet chute is enough to get it all happening and the flail action of the hammers finishes it all off.
Is the disc meant to be kinked like that where the chipping blades are???
The housing does not look to be very thick.
Very interesting machine none the less. Gives me a few ideas.
I like that sweeep up off the ground idea, even if it probably doesnt work as well in practice and the theory would suggest. Do you put stuff on it then lift it up and let it fall in???
Cheers, Bob.
