woodchipper
Log-eating machine
A woodchipper is a machine that reduces branches and tree limbs to small chips, typically by feeding them through rotating blades.
Landscapers and tree services use woodchippers to dispose of debris.
The device has a grim cultural association from the film *Fargo*, where it disposes of a body—giving rise to dark jokes about "woodchipper accidents."
