I also got the hitch attachment with my WC46, allows me to pull a trailer behind the chipper going down the trail to catch all the wood chips so I can use them in garden, shed, etc. Really a slick set up once you have it all connected.
Thanks for subscribing. If you can justify the extra cost, I'd go with the 810. That was not available when I purchased and I don't think I would have bought it at the time. However, after seeing the new design and knowing the insane amount of white pine limbs I may have to chip, it sure would be nice to have for the more efficient discharge.
@@homesteadtwins the 8x10 opening would be helpful for less trimming of branches and the twin flywheel is definitely a nice design to keep pto speed at 540 for the added torque for sure. That was my only turn off to the 68 was the plugging issues some people complained about. Probably not something that happens often though.
@@Outdoorsappalichia Depends on the material. We had to stop trying on a fresh white pine tree. We had to stop every second branch. We didn't have problems in the winter but in the middle of summer we couldn't do it. The pile is still there and hopefully drying out will make it better this summer.
If any chipper owner regardless of the model has had any problems I'm sure we all would like to know. I presume. Lots of reviews of the positive but not much feed back as to the areas that need improvement. Look forward to any and all comments from the chipping community in the US and Canada.
Nice video. Im considering an 88 mostly to chip a ton of short needle spruce and balsam fir saplings (2-4" trunks). Do you think I'll have similar issues to what you described with with white pine?
I have a WC88, quickly there is the good and the bad. The good is obvious to us owners and their video/comments. However the questionable bad, that concerns me and perhaps others is to no end, on the input pulley/shaft from factory, I've had to deal and still am dealing with the two lose spindle nuts, an alignment/belt tension/belt rolling problem etc. Woodlands is trying to wrap their head around this, they've been understanding, but there is a lot of down time and frustration that goes with a brand new product and very very very very very low hours on the unit, I mean low hours. That is all I will say for now. Has anyone else know anything about this. Looking forward to the day this is all made good.
I have not ran into the problem you are talking about and haven't heard about it. Although, since buying I haven't watched many videos for the older models. I would be interested if you can post your own video or show me more of your specific problem, so I could offer a better opinion on the fix.

I’m looking to get an 88 or the new 810 here soon. Enjoyed the review, new subscriber

No, I don't think so. Although I haven't tried that species I think the short needles with go through the chute much better than the long needles.

Thanks for the review. I think I am going to pull the trigger on the purchase of this machine. Are you aware of any coupon codes for this?
Not a coupon code but they are running a free shipping deal right now. I paid $349 for the shipping so at least that is a savings for you.

Truly hope that I am the only one that this has happened to, feel free to comment with ideas.
