Power King 14HP wood chipper vs timber bamboo - who wins? Review included. 

I really enjoyed your HONEST video. The tips about und-jamming the chipper drum was terrific to keep in a back pocket for those who use this style chipper rather than the disc style chipper/muncher. Introducing Ernie and your wife was a nice tid bit, too. Best wishes with continued success. Thanks.

Thanks, great review! One small comment: the owner's manual says that the lithium grease should go in the flange bearings once per season (or, 100 hours), not once before every use.

Can you provide the exact name of the dolly product that you purchased through Amazon for the chipper? Manufacturer and model info would be appreciated.

Probably the best advice: "The wife is always right." Thanks, both of you!

I enjoyed the video...just purchased a DR Pro 501 chipper/shredder. It was in stock in Waimea, HI. We don't have bamboo, but our problem is thousands of Monstera plants. No problem for our shredder.

Looking at chipping some bamboo too thanks for the advice on bamboo

Looks like Henon? Nice grove. I just culled out my Congesta grove so I could walk around in it. Next I have to do my Decora grove. Bamboos are magnificent plants. Funny, I use the exact same Makita saw and those same pruning blades. The saw is a beast. I've done a lot of hard work with it and it has held up well. I run the 5Ah batteries in it.

This is really helpful, as I am trying to make a chipper specifically for Bamboo . I may after seeing this choose to go with a disk instead of a drum .

REALLY LOVE THIS CHIPPER I NEED ONE FOR WORK 😁

The only chipper I would buy is DR Power.

Good review I just ordered my chipper this morning!

dope. Nice work.

I've been told bamboo destroys the knives. How did your chipper hold up over time?

I wish I live in Sacramento so I can help you to haul away some of your Bamboo. I live in Southern California and each bamboo stick cost me $15

Chipper still working fine? If so,, how highly do you recommend it?

Good review

Now that you probably have more than 25 hours on this machine, do you still like it and recommend it? We live in Hawaii

Is the chip chute turntable if I want to send it into a trailer or something

Have you checked the knife to anvil gap, should be 1/8" - 1/16" .

Which state are you in? Can I buy some bamboo from you guys?

Bamboo is called nature's steel and when dried almost impossible to work with it.

You also would get far less jamming if you would feed the bamboo in at the correct angle. Stop sticking it in and ramming it in the center of the chute, and let it lay on the bottom of the chute as you push it in. They make that chute at that angle for a reason.

I have chipped bamboo and its awful! that stuff is hard as a rock and likes to bind up the flywheel

Nice chipper but why would you want bamboo.

Why chip ? You can build lots of things with it…or give it to your neighbor like me

Dry wood even bamboo dry stuff does not chip well. Dry stuff just dulls your blades and Beats the hell out of your machine . But if you want to screw up your chipper keep chipping all the dry stuff . Then you will have Avery high price paper weight !

I hate bamboo, the neighbors field has it and over the years has grown out of control. I bought a DR400 chipper/shredder and the shredder makes short work of the bamboo even dead up to 2" in diameter. The harder bamboo I just burn.

Why chip bamboo? Other uses will be nice

only people that like bamboo are the folks growing it. neighbors hate it!

these videos are so much nicer if you dont talk; just chip the material up..

lucky you, i bought the DK2 power version (same as the powerking) it fell apart in 2 days.
