what is the size of material (branches) after they are shredded? 1inch, 1/2 inch, sawdust, what?

Depends on material being shredded. Hard dry branches chip to about 1/2 inch. Greener material varies significantly.

It depends on whether you feed it through the chipper tube or the shredder bin. Virtually everything I've fed in have been larger branches and small trees going through the chipper. The vast majority of the resulting material is essentially a very coarse sawdust. Meterial fed through the shredder tends to come out quite a bit larger, perhaps one half to three quarters of an inch long with a few green branches up to a couple of inches long. Because of this difference in the fineness of the output, I prefer to feed as much as I can through the chipper and only use the shredder for leaves and similar material.

It varies in size, but mostly about small 1/2 inch chips. I use the chips as ground cover.

Most of the output is between 1/2- and 3/4-inch... occasionally green twigs will go through in up to 3- or 4-inch lengths

The largest branches I cut were about 1-1.5in diameter. I was surprised how easy it was!

They are 2 pieces x 4 ft. long. And they can be cut with the same types of saws made for wood. (Might want to do something to trap/separate the sawdust, depending on how you use or dispose of it. Mixing plastic in would potentially cause problems for some uses of it.)

I don't have it hand for an accurate measurement B. but think inches. I used it to cut some baseboard 1/4 round I think it is called. It worked fine for that. I'm looking at buying a table saw for some more adventurous projects I have planned.

1 1/2 inches seems about right. I actually got a measurement that was slightly more than that - between 1 1/2 and 1 3/4 inches.

It's very thin. I would say 1", yet it thinned much more with only about a week of use.

I measure 3 inches even with the blade that came with the saw. I have been using it attached to the EZ Track Saw system - and get 2.5 inches deep with that. I have been ripping 2 inch thick slabs of hickory that are 8 feet long and it works very well.

Hi, I just ran some chipboard through and the measurements I got were: 5/8", 1", 1-1/2", 1-5/8" and 2".

I believe so since the shredded pieces are so compact together but I can measure it for you and let you know asap to be more precise. But just by looking at them I can say they are pretty slim and as thick as the paper you shred.

We use ours for branches up to about 1.5 inches and it works great. Tried leaves and it was not to good.

They vary is size, but assimilate the size of real leaves. I would say 2 1/2 to 4 1/2 inches long.

It is cedar ~5/8". Good quality, some knots.I think this is the wrong question though. The best hardwood out there will crack if you drive a #10 with no pilot hole. Cedar is a fairly light wood chosen for insect and rot resistance. I added hanging racks for hand tools using drywall screws carefully installed and it works fine. Heavier weight items should use the included layout for cutting shelves.

2 inches by 7 inches -- I cut them into smaller pieces when that is what I need.

I think 1 inch. Also looks like the amazon web site had frequently bought together the 1 inch arbor. Saw is in Alaska and I will not be back up there for a few days.

They are the standard large sized sticks....looks to be about 1/2 an inch or so...

The paper ends up being shredded into approx. 1/2 in by 1/8 in tiny rectangular strips. I don't know if that answers your question exactly, but that's all I know. I have owned this shredder for 3 months, and I really like it...quiet, basket is easy to empty,reliable

Wasn't sure because mine are wrapped around my trees! But I found it in the description: 60 x 2 x 0.1 inches.
