Mad mulcher

We have a large native hedge at the front of our house that twice yearly I have trim. For this woody type of pruning I have an electric chipper. This chipper is a bit different as it doesn't have a fast moving blade but a slow moving gear type cog that drags in the prunings and crushes them against a plate. It very effective and can handle large branches not mention it's a lot quieter than the chopping type.




All this becomes



Which in turn becomes



Mulch for the fig tree.
