Stump Grinder Teeth

[Xtra]

Green Teeth was showing a new way to sharpen their teeth @ the Hartford show . . . I'll try to get a pic up when I have time.

They put the tooth in a drill press, put a weight on the arm of the press to lower the tooth onto a diamond wheel, use a shop vac for the dust (a lot less that a green wheel) and use a light/hot tub timer on the drill press/grinder combo. You set it up, walk away, and in a few minutes the tooth is done.


A_Lopa & Aaction . . . I learned a new one today at a seminar. The guy called today (friday) "POETS" day, he said he learned it from his Aussy friends . . . Piss Off Early, Tomorrow's Saturday . . .

I chuck them out and put new ones on, stuff the sharpening and retipping!

100 retipped teeth,$600 drop off/pick up

The bed the tungstan sits on by the time I throw them out is rooted!

Grinding lots of palms let you run them into the ground.

But that's a cheap offer, the tips alone are $5 here plus silver soldering them on.

i don't know what teeth your using... i use vemeer pro... new they are $ 6.61..why would you pay $6.00 to re tip a tooth ???? the shank is so worn by the time the tip needs to be changed.....
