    I run a Ferris and Dixie chopper and a grasshopper. You were racing an old Dixie chopper against a new Ferris when that Dixie chopper was maid it probably was the fastest get you a new one and race then. Dixie also has a suspension system now but the Ferris is hard to beat I’ve been at a company for 25 years and we still use the first Ferris we ever bought it’s got to be 15 years old and a high end grasshopper diesel is hard to beat also but if I had my pick it would be a 60 inch Ferris with the Kawasaki engine for the money I would go with the Ferris it’s also hard to get parts hear for the Dixie the grasshopper hopper industrial mowers are more reliable and easy to get parts for the Ferris is a little easier than the Dixie to get parts for but for the right price i would by any of them again

    Say a 1 ton of aluminum at say 42c lb or....maybe 45 dollars a 100 weight would be....like 800 or 900 dollars if it is "clean" no ferrous screws or nails or rivets mixed into there. If they downgrade it to less than half the scrap money for all the ferrous screws and nails that would be like 400 bucks, or maybe $425.

  • @bensanders7392

    I look for scrap metal sometimes, so I'm just seeing a ton of aluminum siding going in there with the wood and everything. Although it's probably loaded up with 1000s and 1000s of rivets and 1000s of ferrous nails that would be way too much headache to get out, so a scrap yard doesn't downgrade all that non-ferrous siding( and possibly the roof metal too) to "dirty" aluminum or aluminum breakage price.

    Awesome firewood cutting video. I noticed that you talked a lot about chainsaw, wood cutting on your channel, Are you up for a collaboration? Hipa supplies parts for small engines and maybe we would work together to share some tips on chainsaw using and maintenance and help more chainsaw users in the community.

    4:20 было ясно что закусит, надо было с самого начала, разметить, прорезать снизу, положить подставку под большой кусок швеллера, прорезать середину, потом сверху, не заглубляя диск прорезать, в прорезь поставить внизу клин, когда чучуть останется разбить зубилом и кувалдой. 🥸 демонтаж опасная работа.

    The Dixie chopper looks like a kids toy 🧸 out there beside that beefy dang Ferris lol, I know the Dixie chopper is a great machine and All but not many things come close the cut quality of a Ferris especially when your redneck mower racing while cutting tall grass, nice drifting on the Dixie tho, enjoyed this little lawn Daytona 500
