Holy cow look at this wood chipper !!!!!

Some old iron there! Price seems a bit steep to me.

Tighten a few nuts, give it a squirt of WD-40, and it'll be good as new!

Wow, 16K for an old blo hog! Could probably find something cheaper on the CL personals ;-)

... with removable teeth

I'm thinkin it might be a typing error...should say......$15 bucks.

Looks more like an old silage blower to me

Did you see who the seller is? If i am not mistaken, it's Our very own Lee!

Think i can buy a nice used vermeer or brush bandit for less than that.

Paint is overrated.

Here is another wood chipper but not for sale. This thing chews up trees pretty fast.

Pete, that is the chipper they brought in when we cut off our pines.

I was rather enjoying the foot in mouth disease that was about to go viral and you guys put the kabosh to that! :coolsmile:
That hog is capable of about 4-6000 lbs/hour of 3" minus finished product in one pass from solid wood feedstock. At least double that voulume on a regrind.
It's prolly late 70's early 80's vintage. Thery're designed for brute force destruction of wood unlike a chipper which slices wood. There are alot older units out there. They are built to easily be rebuilt.
Scrap value alone after selling marketable parts and the rest recycled is $5-8K. This machine saw a rebuild not long before it was taken out of service and its ready to grind. I'm selling this for a mill that my company hauls waste wood for and the price is no where out of line.
I like how the intenet makes eveyone an "expert" in every fielld!!

We used to have chip throwing contests. Oh, never mind....

I don't think I would put my personal reputation on the line for someone elses merchandise. Most people won't spend that kind of money on something that the seller can't put a $50 oil base paint job on... yet took the time to rebuild....hmmm

Hundreds of millions of dollars of used unpainted equipment are sold DAILY around the world. If you can't grasp that you live in a small world. I'd bet every last dollar I had that this equipment is what it is. This is a life long friend I'm selling this for.

Lol...were talking about eBay! Can you inspect it online? Nope. Got to go off what the pictures look like. If you can't grasp that then the world your living in is just as small.

You're free to come look any time . I've bought alot of high dollar equipment off ebay . Ebay is as safe as buying at a local store with all the built in buyer protections.

Wood hogs don't produce chips, they produce a ground wood product which is drastically different than chips actually.
