\"ContinentalCBI’s Log & Stump Screw, 484B ChipMax Wood Chipper, 5800BT Horizontal Grinder, and the 6800BT Horizontal Grinder entertained crowds throughout the weekend.<\/p>\n

The person who got the closest look at CBI\u2019s machines was the show operator, Josh Qualey, who ran the Log & Stump Screw and loaded the machines for two days straight.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt can split through anything you want to split through,\u201d Qualey said of the CBI Log & Stump Screw. \u201cHard wood, soft wood, big gnarly stuff, small stuff\u2026 it doesn\u2019t matter, it blows right through it.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Log and Stump Screw, mounted on a CAT 314E, continuously split and stacked material up to 70 inches in diameter. The screw\u2019s sleek and simple design mesmerized those passing through the booth\u2014many guests spent more than an hour in the bleachers watching the screw crack material. Showcasing the Log Screw\u2019s versatility, Qualey was able to quickly detach the screw in front of the crowd and install a thumb-loader to the same excavator for feeding the wood chipper.<\/p>\n

Freshly split wood was fed into the portable ChipMax 484B, which blasted consistent fuel quality wood chips into a trailer to be trucked away.<\/p>\n
