Your website is very interesting- lots of machines that are not commonly built
out of Legos such as the milling machine.
The chipper will be configured like a large unit pulled behind a dump truck.
The pics are just ideas shown in 3 modules. They will be heavily modified and
squeezed into a chipper body along with the motor and battery box.

This all may take a long time to do, considering my schedule at work and the
fact that the dump truck needs a hitch to fit the chipper, a full suspension, a
more realisitc gate locking system, and possibly an electric motor to pull it
and the chipper. Lord willing the chipper should get done this year, but if it
takes longer it will just mean more fun!
Feel free to ask as many questions as you like!
