Another informative video, enjoy watching what you’re working on. I see a couple of Bobcat machines in the background, the S250 and 334……any videos on those?
Actually Barreto makes a 37-SG which is the same machine with a bigger engine and hydraulic system but for some reason they are way more expensive and much less common than the 30SG. I'll probably sell the Bandit but I want to use it a little more before I decide.
Guys ground out a sycamore stump at my place. They had 4 pieces of plywood. Two pairs joined with hinges. They made a barricade so rocks wouldn't fly out and break stuff. Effective.
Different belt companies measure their belts differently. Some denote inside radius while others denote outside radius. Two different brand belts with the same designation can be either slightly longer or shorter depending on the belt manufacturers method of measurement. There’s not one standard across all manufacturers. Impressed by your abilities for a young buck. Line boring on your mill was very clever indeed. Keep up the good work.
I can't say for certain but I'm pretty sure this machine was rolled over based on the high center of gravity and all the broken parts on top of the engine. As far as I can tell it doesn't have a low oil shutoff so I think it was rolled and starved for oil before it could be shut down. It's showing 738 hours on the meter.
Great job bringing that machine back to life, most folks would have considered it to be totaled between the engine and the damaged shaft bore. You going to keep both stump grinders?
I have not bought any from the scrapyard I doubt that would be very profitable. I just get them here and there from random people who have them saved up usually.
I feel that too well, spending too much time scouring marketplace and just being unable to pass up on good deals for new projects, I just wish I had the space to work like you, but nice video as always!
@@AlwaysBored123 Very much, but hey sometimes you end up getting such crazy deals, like I got a toro walk behind skid steer for only 300, although missing the engine it was still a fun project!
Very informative repair video and excited to see how the engine is revived. I'm wondering whether you're up for a collaboration? Hipa supplies parts for small engines and maybe we would work together to help more people in the community.
Sir, you are incredible! Outstanding craftsmanship and amazing repairs! It was amazing that you fixed the idle on one of the engines by simply adjusting the governor!
