I've seen them before, I wonder how big a log it will process? Maybe not the size Ashful gets, I'd bet ;)
 
That's impressive !!!!

it says 12' long 16" diameter but that sounds pretty big to me
 
Priced one out five or six years ago. Around $48,000.

Beggars can't be choosers. I get that crazy big stuff only because the landowners don't want it. They keep the stuff under 24" diameter for themselves.

I'll have to snap a pic of the Morbark table grinder the clearing guys are using on the job I'm on. It's a shame they are grinding all the logs on the job into chips. I'm guessing they are getting good money for the grindings, I'll have to ask them on Monday. I asked them to set aside a couple Ash logs, they made a pile of 8-10" cherry and some other crap. I cut a pickup load after work today, some mixed small stuff. Kinda related, but also not
 
Better have a carbide blade, or you'd be sharpening a lot with all that dirt on those logs.

I'm not sure a little dirt on the logs is as big a deal as some people make it out to be. I cut several cords per year of forest-skidded logs, and they never dull my chains faster than clean wood.

I'm surprised. I notice it dulling my blades much faster than clean wood. Could be the type of dirt.

Could be time of year wood is harvested and how it is handled when skidded... winter time in my neck of the woods would be clean. Another area at the same time of year may be wet snow and mud.
