No it finally died on me. I made a prettty simple crusher using some bar stock and flat bar.
Drilled center holes in the flat bar to accept a 5/8" shaft and had them alternate so only 2 teeth would engage at a time. Right now I’m using an old steering wheel to rotate it.
The grinder itself is set into an angle iron frame and I built a wooden box to make a small compartment to put the Charcoal. Even with just hand strength it bends nails. Not a whole lot of dust from it either especially with hardwood stock.
I originally used it this ways up but I found a lot of the char had to be guided to the teeth.
I turned it the other way up and it works much better. With bigger pieces of char it will take small bites out and eventually work it down.
I should have saved that chipper for making filter media. I might try to copy the blade and anvil design of the chipper to make charcoal. I really liked the flake consistency it made for very dense fuel. 9 pounds per 5 gallons worth even with soft pallet wood.
