The Chomper!!

I love watching these things. If I had the money and the need, this is the processor I would buy as you don't have to feed a log deck.

That thing is incredible! Never seen that before.
Kind of takes some of the fun out of wood gathering though.

If I owned land up in Wisconsin or out west where there were tall straight skinny trees, this thing would be awesome. Drop a tree, cut off the branches, and let the chomper split a full tree into little pieces. Would only be practical for someone with land and money to invest in one.

If you were looking to process oak or maple, a CRD metal works or Multitek would be better.

WOOD SEASONS FASTER: Chomper produced firewood seasons faster then conventionally sawn and split wood. Can be sold sooner as seasoned firewood or fuelwood.

I'm guessing the act of squeezing the wood through the cutter and splitter removes some of the water?

I'd just get fat & lazy if I had that thing.

Too funnny!

The background music, the film (not video), the clothes and the vehicles all say 70's. Yet that machine would still be a moneymaker today. I'm with Dexter. I must have one.

I like watching TV from the 70's and 80's. Way better than the stuff on today. More wholesome, and the messages portrayed weren't of dysfunctional families and scandalous behavior

Agreed 100% Firecracker

If I had 10 grand lying around for one of those,I'd put it towards a good used 35HP skidsteer loader w/rubber tracks & grapple bucket instead.And still hand buck everything & split by hand.
