Can the size of the chips be varied? I'd like a bigger wood chip than 1/4 inch.

No you cannot vary the ship size or change the chip size. The standard chip size is 1/4"

U may be able to for a few tries. What's interesting is once I started cutting wood my first blade quickly dulled. Worked great on carbon fiber (thin). I can't imagine it working too long on 3/4 inch wood.

You could also check the manufacturer's website to get specifics. The come in different sizes as well.

The opening for the punch is only large enough to fit three pieces of medium cardstock (90#). I imagine that 'medium' chipboard is thicker than that, so I don't think so either.

If you cut down the wood chip to a small size you will be able to use them in the nordic smoker

Never tried but I have seen small smoker boxes on Amazon that should be able to fit wood chips. There is enough space above the element on one end to place it there. Of course that will eliminate cooking space probably. I was looking at my bag of wood chips for my charcoal grill and it does mention being used on electric grills so I guess anything is possible.

How big do they ave to be? My wife and I have no issue with the size of the chips. They seem perfect to us. We had a board back in college, and if memory serves me right, the chips were the same size. A non issue as far as I'm concerned. Hope that helps.

The wood chips that I've purchased from Home Depot come in a variety of flavors and are actually perfect for this smoker. I use them all the time! They're about the size of a dime in circumference. Most pieces are 1-2 in in diameter

The PM ones are nice. The 1/4-in bit from Wood River breaks routinely in hard maple, so buy two at a time. Other than that, it depends on how big your mortises are. The rule of thumb is 1/3 shoulder, 1/3 tenon, 1/3 shoulder, so 1/4" for 3/4" thick wood.I just used a PM 3/4" bit for a bed I'm making.

Depends on thickness and type of wood. 1/4"? Yes. 1/2" pine? Sure. 3/4" hardwood? Not easily. A small job could likely be done with just a rotary tool like a dremel or rotozip

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

I have been ordering these chips for a couple of years. Dimensions and thickness vary by the bag. They vary so much that I try to have two bags going at all times so that I can match the chip size to the size of my dogs and the time of the snack. Despite the variability in size and thickness of the chips, I continue to order these because they do not have unknown chemicals, etc. which is what you get in chips from China.

It's fairly small, but works very nicely with the recommended wood pellets. Not sure how it would work with wood chips, but the pellets work very well.

I believe a 4" will do it. but if you have steady hands you can save yourself some coin if you tape it off well and cut it with a sawzall, jigsaw, etc.

These come set sizes. In our woodshop at Capitol City Lumber, we can custom make this size, but is not available through Amazon.
