Nice build but I get a very unsafe feeling from the back of my neck.

When working around this type of equipment there is never a totally safe way to build or operate it. Safety practices begins and ends with the individual

I totally agree Frank, I love this machine, it’s simple and strong and doesn’t look any more dangerous than any other PTO attachment I have ever seen. Most farmers would use this safely and those that fail to will only strengthen the gene pool.

It is a nice build and safety aside as stated above the only thing I might do is put a cover over the gear train to keep the chips out and some grease on. Impressive cuts on that ~3"+ green stuff.

The plans for the wood chipper are on page 11.
I've worked up a design that incorporates a mulcher as well to deal with the small stuff.
