finally managed to get a bit of time to start the new stump grinder project got the engine from a road tow compressor deutz 2 cyl diesel started making the shaft and the front frame its also getting mounted on our wee tracked arb truck

If your interested my friend has a stump cutter wheel with pockets and loads of finger teeth for sale . Just thought I,d mention it . Looks like a cool project

thanks for the offer but i am picking up the new wheel from the profilers tomorrow and theres a new set of greenteeth on route

Sounds good . Did you think about using a multi tip wheel at all ? Looking forward to more pics

Looks like a cool project. Have a bobcat skid steer and mini digger, been thinking about making up a stump grinder that can be swapped between them.

What was the original tracked machine?

did think about multi tip but the guy that sells them over here was quite slow/forgot sizes and i also spoke to the fella that was selling one on ebay for a 28hp predator and he was selling it because greenteeth work out cheaper. also i can machine the holes for the pockets really easy and the profile for the wheel works out about £35 and greenteeth are £209 = £244 green wheel was going to be £350+vat+del and it would still need tweaked to match shaft sizes

the tracks were the same that i still use for our other grinder from a honda power barrow that had been converted to a drill rig:thumbup:

Fair enough , Multi tip teeth are about £11 each but last well . I am sure looking forward to the development of this thread

todays achievements were pretty good got the profile and got it machined to take the cutters and the mounting holes

does any body know the torque for greenteeth pockets and tips
