In this review, the author offers the idea of how to make a do-it-yourself device that is easy to manufacture, with which you can quickly and easily chop small chips. It is necessary for kindling boilers, stoves or fireplaces.
For the manufacture of woodchip, a profile pipe of rectangular section 40 * 20 mm and an old file (even “bald”) will be required, as well as some other details.
Someone will say: they say, why do this adapt when there is an ax? If you like to work with an ax - to health!
This device is for those who value comfort. The wood chip is attached to the wall directly inside the room where the stove or fireplace is located. You can’t wave the ax in the house.
It should also be noted that the chip produces much less noise than an ax, and does not harm the floor. If you stab with an ax on a deck in a room where tiles are laid on the floor, then it will quickly become worthless.
The process of making woodchip
First of all, the master cuts off a piece of profile pipe 40 * 20 mm of suitable length. Then he makes a marking and drills through holes.
At the next stage, with the help of a grinder, he cuts “steps” in the profile pipe - for different lengths of firewood.
Next, you will need to drill a hole in the file. After that, the author proceeds to sharpen one of the sides of the file.
As you already understood, this will be a cutting knife. Then we attach the file to the profile pipe, make a handle from the pipe and paint the homemade product. We attach the finished device to the wall.
For details on how to make a wood chip yourself from a professional pipe and an old file, see the video on the site.
