Grinders And Heavy Iron
Приєднався 25 лют 2016
I have always loved heavy equipment since I was little and this channel is just to share my passion with the public. I had my own mulch business for 5 years and although it has since closed, my obsession with grinders and heavy equipment hasn't slowed a bit. It's in my blood. Feel free to ask any questions and I'll try and help if I can.

Transforming Wood Waste Into Electricity
This is the same person who was talking to you previously. I changed my domain email address.
What's the decibel level on this machine?
@@enlightenedrogue2728 not sure of a hard figure but it’s deafening.
@@grindersandheavyiron1741 Thank you. It's not in any of the manufacturers literature either. I figured that was why. Was thinking about buying but my municipality has a hard decibel limit of 70 and from the video I think the machine is well over the limit.
@@enlightenedrogue2728 oh yeah it’s way more than 70 db. I don’t know of any that would be 70 unless you went electric or had massive mufflers.
Your in Harrisonburg VA? I Wouldnt mind using this to start a business with. Does the bed dump or no?
@@techman9634 yes sir, the truck is in Harrisonburg. The bed doesn’t dump but I have seen people modify them to do it. It has a PTO to run the winch which could be modified to run a dump cylinder I believe.

Great information provided, clearly laid out, and easy to understand. Great video!
Great information provided, very insightful, and clearly laid out.
I respect the honestly. And this reminds me why as farmers have the BAS, a report what exactly tells me for every litre of milk cost me 45 cents to produce and sell for 48,3 cents. With every and literally every cost is divided in each own category.
I appreciate the feedback Sir
Nice!!! I’m ready to roll in cash!
That tool looks amazing! Can't wait to see how it works!
Thanks Steph
This machine is so impressive up close. The ability to pick up multiple trees and drop them right where you want them in addition to cutting them in the blink of an eye….engineering gold.
Impressive!

This is that real insight that you don't learn in school!
Amen, I must have missed this class in school ;) Theory and practice are two different animals.
Thanks for the insights!
Thanks for watching
In the next video, we’ll run some real world examples to see how everything interacts
This is just amazing Jimmy! Just so proud of you! Keep up the good content and others can learn so much.
Thank you very much:)
Mission Mulch!
Back from the dead ;)
Very insightful, can’t wait to learn more!
Thank you
Hindsight is always 20/20 but sharing lessons learned could improve the next guy’s vision immensely! Thanks for sharing your story and what a way to look forward!
Thank you
Looking forward to part 2! You did the right thing brother i love it
Thanks Zach!
Awesome tool!
Thanks Ma’am ;)
Great information! Ready for Part 2
Yes Sir, this one took forever to get up but the others will be much faster and informative. Stay tuned
Great content! Exactly what I wanted to hear
Thanks, glad you liked it
I love this! Need more content like this.
Thanks
Why are these yards so commonly using these trailer mounted loaders vs an excavator? Cheaper? Not really needed to be moved around often so it doesn’t need to be drivable?
Great question. I wondered the same thing before working here. Excavators are the work horse of these operations but their big downfall is the logs have to 1) be parallel with the thumb/bucket to pick it up and 2)the excavator has to be perfectly situated to then load those logs on the infeed chain. Knucklebooms are awesome because you can spin the grapple 360 so no matter where the log is, you can grab it. It’s also handy to inspect a log quickly by spinning it for metal.
@@grindersandheavyiron1741 Thank you for your response!
Is the green coloured machine on the left of the screen, grinding the output of the white machine, into even smaller pieces?
No sir, that machine is called a stacker. The purpose is to stockpile the material in a cost effective way. If you didn't use one, it'd take maybe an hour or so before the material backs up to the main conveyor and you'd have to shut down. With that stacker, you may be able to stockpile 800 yards in one spot without moving your grinder. It's a lot cheaper to run one of those than to have a guy on a loader or excavator moving the material away as well. Some clever operations add a cross belt magnet to the stacker. There's no way to avoid hitting metal during the first grind but for the metal that gets through, the cross belt magnet will also pull the metal out so on the next pass, you're not hitting the same metal again.
Have you had any crazy experiences in forestry
Like most people around this type of equipment, I've had some close calls. The main thing running grinders and what not is the material or parts getting thrown. The mills run so fast and violent when something goes wrong, it goes really wrong. In one of the videos where I'm standing on a pile a decent ways away, a chunk of wood gets ejected and almost hits me. I have to duck which you can see in the video. As far as miserable days at work stories, I had a grinder that was tracked and blew a hydraulic line going to the final drive in the middle of winter. It was in such a bad spot when it blew that professional mechanics came and turned down the work. I had to chisel frozen mud for three days just to get under the machine where I could change the line myself. I worked by myself at this time. This industry builds character to say the least.
@@grindersandheavyiron1741 Thank you for this. As someone who is considering going into the industry this is helpful
@@WascallyWabbits I am working on a new video I hope to put out in a week or two. It'll be lessons learned and advice about the industry having started, and then losing, my business 5 years later. I learned a ton the hard way but unfortunately, it was too little too late. My goal is to help encourage people to take the leap if they're considering becoming an business owner, but to also prevent anyone from repeating the same mistakes I made. If you have any questions in the meantime, please let me know. I always love to talk shop about the mulch world.
You should make a video detailing the differences between the different types of chippers and grinders etc. but go into a lot of detail. If you notice there is no video on UA-cam that does this for the big machines. I bet it would get a lot of views.
I think that's a wonderful idea and thank you! I haven't put any videos out in quite a while and I need to start again. I had my own mulch business and then I worked at a biomass yard so it used to be easier to make videos, but now I'm in a different industry so it's harder to make my own content. I am currently in the works of making a video that I'll post soon specifically about the business side of running a mulch business. I'll do your idea after that. Keep the ideas coming, they're appreciated.

Have you had this machine clog up on you any
When I was there at this demo, no, but I could see the potential for thin green sapling trees getting wrapped around the shafts
Yeah I feed one everyday that is wore out and you can only run certain material through it without it clogging up then you have to crawl inside and clean it out. Personally I don’t think it’s one of the best designs but I guess it gets the job done.
I think shredders have unbelievable potential, especially ones like the Doppstadt Inventhor 9, but they need to find a way to force bigger material to get chewed up. All of them, and especially 2 shafts, just have the wood bounce around. They're great at brush but mulch yards get tons of chunkwood and they're just too slow in my opinion
I drove one of these all over central Viet Nam a long time ago. They are a beast! On one TDY I pulled a 25 foot (?) trailer hauling dry cement pallets from LSTs on the beach about ten miles to an Air Force base. Had 6 on the truck and 12 on the trailer and grossed just over 100,000 lbs. Still pulled strong, just had to split shift. We did that for about a month. After I left they made some of them into gun trucks with heavy weapons. Look up Gun Trucks of Viet Nam for more info on those trucks. Life savers in an ambush.
Always wanted one of these...i have 14 acres id do some serious iffroading in with this haha but i always spend my money on other projects sadly.. Sounds great btw. Im in virginia too.
If I only had the money, and twenty dedicated friends, we'd get it running right, arm up, and head for the Texas border.
Too-Expensive..
Good luck in what ever it is that you choose to do next. Thanks for these great videos. I have enjoyed watching them all.... 💪

New this machine is $1,000,000 usd, used it’s $350-450k usd if it has 5,000 hrs. They’re veryyyyyy expensive to maintain
Where's the oversized wood
I'm not very happy with this video. Of cause the 'Beast' is awesome. But the camera angle is just bad. Most of the time the drum and the cutting process is hidden and you can't see anything. So to me it is useless.
I understand your point but if you haven't worked around these machines before, that is extremely dangerous to do. If one of the teeth or chunks of wood fire out "which they do regularly", it would kill you. In fact, in one of my videos you can see me actually duck when a firewood size piece came directly at me and I was almost hit. I wish I could have gotten a straight on shot but it was simply too dangerous. Sorry
Afrique de l'ouest nous ont utilisé les bois de hévéa pour les chauffage
A quoi servent les copeaux de bois ? Pouvez-vous me dire?
The wood chips are used to fire a boiler in a power plant instead of coal
You should make some more
I would love to but recently I switched industries over to construction and it's hard to find the time. Once I get settled in I will certainly try
And thank you
Why is the goofy wheel loader operator dropping those chunks from 20ft in the air?? Dumbest thing I ever saw. No respect for the equipment.
Agreed, very hard on the chain deck
@@grindersandheavyiron1741 Exactly. And a third are bouncing off the end because of the velocity. Just because you can drive it…
👍
