How did the team determine that the body was placed in a wood chipper?

What team are you talking about

Well, the sentence or the question is related to the TV series, Bones Season 1, episode "The Man on the Fairway".

Explanation:

The main Theme of the Episode:

It includes the investigation into the bone fragments.

Steps that the plot follows: Kane suspects (and always has) Karen Anderson, his father's girlfriend. She still lives in their house and in two years, if Max's body hasn't been found, he'll be declared dead and she'll stand to get his estate. Booth and Brennan pay her a visit and Karen (along with her new boyfriend) claims that Jessie should be the real suspect. He and his father didn't speak for two years before Max's disappearance: Max cut Jessie off. On finding that the fragments were cut up by a wood chipper, Booth finds the only person with access to the right machine: Ray Sparks. This episode has some of the first blatant Booth/Brennan flirting and it's nice to finally see them developing the back and forth that we come to know so well.
