The clamshell is the biggest feature that I prefer. It's a huge benefit to be able to easily clear a jam, and makes blade maintenance super easy. I fought with some of those flat head bolts that has the heads filled with crud and stripped on an older chipper, and it was through a little access door. The ability to actually get to both sides of the bolt and put some leverage or heat on it is a big win in my book.OTOH the Woodland Mills has some features that I wish the Woodmaxx had, like the clamshell rotor housing that seems like it would make knife replacement easier.
Also, good info on the valve. Where did you buy your replacement?
