What would that be like on hawthorn - or any material that does not come
in convenient "straight stick" format? Hawthorn is very bushy and stiff.
I cannot see any of the home shredders being much fun to use with my
hedge as as far as I can see, they have such small throats for safety.

Or am I wrong?


I've have not tried it for Hawthorn. The only thing I've had trouble
with was a rose bush but that went in with a bit of brute force. Too
much force tends to tip the whole lot over as it only has three legs.
The more modern version looks more stable.
