Identifying this piece of equipment

[Logmanoz]

Hello Folks,

I came across a video of this small log cutter.
It's run on tractor PTO and cuts long small diameter logs into even lengths.
Help would be greatly appreciated in sourcing where to buy something like this. I'm struggling to find anything on google that comes close to it.

Here's a link to the video


Many Thanks.

Its homemade I believe

What's the purpose of 4" long chunks?

i agree with JeffHK454, but it looks like it's made with Vermeer chipper knives...

Obviously across the sea. Pretty neat though.

looks like green softwood. Willow, poplar or aspen going through it. Would like to see it handle oak or locust!

The small chunks are for wood stoves. Just a larger version of pellets. I have a couple of guys around here that take all of my ends and discards for the same reason. it all burns.

Looking at his sweatshirt, this system may be from Sweden. Uppsala University on the sweatshirt.

probably easier to scoop up a bunch of them up with the tractor bucket too

I have seen units like this used to make chunks for a gasifier stove, and also a vehicle that ran on "wood gas".

It's called a chunker.
Must be they shovel the stove full. I guess if all you have is sticks you work with what you have.

on the web someplace there is one made from a tractor trailer brake drum.

I was watching wood splitter videos one day and got into a bunch of the machines that make chunks. They still make brand new ones that do the same thing. I think all the ones I saw were European made, Joe.
