We are pretty much out of harm’s way. No acid rain or ash as the winds have been favorable. Lady at PO was telling me yesterday they disconnected their catchment, they live in Mountain View and not so fortunate. She is concerned that if protracted they might run out of water.

So my first thought seeing the cut down fence was where to put the cutoff portion. 
Looks very nice

Finally got my chipper ready!
We had it assembled two weeks ago...but with the rain and my hours at work...just no time to actually try it.
Anyway, works great! Had a tree top come down on the lawn just before the chipper was delivered...that was the test branches. 4 or 5 inches in diameter and the Woodmaxx just munched them right up. Makes nice chips. Getting the implement PTO drive shaft hooked to the tractor's stub shaft was a real pain though. New U-joint had to be positioned "just so" to slide it on. I have a bad back so I had to stop now and then. Of course, that u-joint will wear in soon enough.
I have a couple small (trunk 6" or so in diameter) trees to drop...plus a half dozen or so smaller diameter tress (big saplings) to take down...good job for the weekend, if weather permits. I really need to mow the field though...soon. The flail mower is greased and ready to go.

Roy, glad it worked so well for you after all your hard work putting it together.
I learned not to rush mine and just have it feed in slowly

Sweet machineHawkeye, you mean one of these?
in my case a 1986 8199G
one of my first to the frame renovations, currently with 23hp Vanguard engine swap out, which I recommend highly.
If you have three, than you must qualify as a Gravely "nut"...

I repowered one of mine that had Onan 16.5, put the 18hp engine on... the other two have Briggs so might recommend to my daughter to repower with the vanguard. I know some have put the 24hp Honda on also.
