Equipment Review - MacKissic 12P Chipper Shredder

Visit http://jandjacres.net for this and other hobby farm activities. Our first ever Equipment Review: The MacKissic "Mighty Mac" 12P Chipper Shredder. We'll talk about what comes with it as well as one of the extra accessories, an additional screen, that we purchased. This is a great "Mid Grade" or homeowner model. While it is more durable and powerful than the seasonal makes and models you might find at your local garden center, it is not quite the power horse you might see a contractor use. Rated at 3.5" for the chipper and 1" for the hopper, we are quite happy with this machine. And with Made in the USA quality, we are sure it will last us years and years to come. We will use this not only to make wood chips to serve as a covering in some of our livestock areas, or as mulch in our Back to Eden garden, but for pathways and (dare we be adventurous) our driveway as well. Plus, we will process dried rabbit manure for use in our garden, and goat manure to be spread around the yard. Indeed, this machine will help us make more use of the resources we already have on our property - paying us back in no time.
