    Don't know....never looked for one of those. I know there's a company called MaxPower that makes similar ones for regular mower, and also 8Ten, and even Husqvarna makes them for reg. mowers.

    Yupppppp

    All that's needed to handle the leaves is to dry them, munch them and run them through the pellet mill.

    If we had more leaves I would do it in a heart beat

    If the moisture content is where it should be the stuff will make good pellets without additives

    A beautiful day today...
    Took care of barn chores and then hauled out the Munchy.
    Ran a couple barrels of 1/2 rounds and got them crushed up.
    Weather is going to be getting more winter like come this weekend and possible SNOW by mid next week.

    ......Not enthused about snow, but oh well...

    I grabbed the last of the Oktoberfest, No white xmas yet! :(

    With the new brewpub just down the hill, I'm hoping they have a seasonal brew that goes good with the bird. :)

    Colder weather showing up...upper 20's F this morning.
    Only 66 F in the shack this morning.
    Lit off the big stove a few minutes ago... should be quite cozy in here in a bit.

    The little stove just will not keep the place comfy when the temps drop below 40 F

    After the extensive changes that happened during the addition of the new custom controller the wee stove is far better than it was, but still it's a small stove and located at the far SW corner of the living room/dinning room....so it take a lot more to heat this place when the temps drop.

    Still, keeping the temp at 66 F is not too bad.
