shredding Ivy
as long as the blades are nice and sharp and you run the unit at fairly high
rpms, they will grind up nicely. bill "Charlie Morgan" wrote in message ... I have a property with a lot of english ivy that has run amuck. I want to pull it up and run it through a chipper-shredder. I'm just wondering if one of those 6.5 HP Troy-bilt units from Sears or Lowes will handle ivy without jamming every 10 seconds. Has anyone ever tried shredding this stuff? Yes, I understand that the ivy will grow back. So will the stand of bamboo I will also be cutting down and running through the chipper. I just need to clear it for the short term. My only question is about whether this machine will grind the ivy reasonably well, since it looks like that might be a good question to ask, given the tough, stringy nature of ivy. Thanks CWM |
