Next to taking down trees and clearing, I would have to say that my next favorite thing to do is burn. I spent two days tending a burn pile (not quite as big as yours). In between feeding the fire I can sit in my machine (just a skid steer) and watch the pile burn while I reflect on losing my oldest son (probably about your age). I find it amusing when I talk to my co-workers at my "regular job" which is mostly in front of a computer keyboard about taking trees down and burning. They tell me that "it sounds like a lot of work"! I tell them yes it is, but it's my "therapy". I could spend each and every day on a machine doing "work" on my property in the woods and be content.

Watching Chris work his excavator always reminds me of seeing Fred Flintstone on his dinosaur at the rock quarry sitting atop the dinosaur in his cab with his rope control where the the Volvo excavator has the same look with the boom and bucket/thumb being the dinosaurs neck and jaws. Love the dedication Chris puts into his work. John, Perth Western Australia.

Mulching that would not be a good idea. The rental place doesn't like rocks being sent through a chipper. Also fine branches don't chip. I used a chipper to chip willow branches and clogged the chipper, two hours later after disassembling and assembling the chipper after unclogging the chipper box learned my lesson. KZfaq has a lot of watchers but when you become a doer you know the answers. Because you made the mistakes. Trust me this man knows what he is doing.

What we use around here, Central Texas, where we can’t burn for “environmental reasons”, are big tub grinders. These are big machines driven by a couple hundred horsepower diesel that grind whatever you put in them not try and chip it. So it will anything from trees, shrubs, vines, and just about any vegetable matter. Probably animal too but we don’t want to think about that. It’s not mulch material but rather ground up small enough for composting. They put it in giant piles, throw in all kinds of stuff, let it ferment and in a couple of years they sell it to the Karens to put on the yard. Not as cheap or easy as burning, but what you going to do?

No need to reach out and constantly check for heat with your hand. 2 bucks apiece. Sell in a pack of 10. 1.5 inch black sticker. Put on the inside window of all your machines. Temp goes to 122 degrees, the sticker changes from black to a red warning message. When it cools, back to black.
