I killed my wood chipper. Broke the fly wheel right off the engine.

Any idea why the flywheel broke? |

That would be the prima facie version of the failure. I believe cRiPpLe_rOoStEr was inquiring about the actual breakage of the flywheel to crankshaft union.

The flywheel assembly has been parted from the rest of the crank at the tapershaft nub. I destroyed it pretty good.

Makes me wonder if a belt coupling could prevented such damage.

I bet that's why the "commercial use" wood chipper has a belt drive. The new version is going to be belt driven with a 1.25 inch 4130 steel shafts turned down to a press fit 7/8 keyed shaft. It will have replaceable bearings.

Too bad you most likely can't (legally) get those horizontal-single either Yanmar or Kubota thumpers, which have built-in pulleys in the flywheel. Definitely boat-anchors, but they're indestructible.
