Hey Mitchell, I enjoyed your video. One thing I wanted to point out is you mentioned to always wear PPE at 6:41. Thats Awesome! You were great on the first grinding operation, but then failed to wear eye protection for the rest of the grinding after that starting at 8:19. By the way, I will probably be purchasing that balancer. Thanks for your video!

Amazon wants $220 plus tax for a Mag1000. The cost of my blade brand new is $12, so I can just replace my blade with a brand new one 18 times and have some pocket change left over for the price of a little blade balancer.

@JoshWeaverRC 3 месяца назад

How much for the mower

@markroth6236 2 месяца назад

Your outer edge is the most important because that is the edges that intersect with the other blade. I sharpen multiple blades, wide and narrow. I have the balancer that has the six mags on it. Took 4 off and it works like a charm. The mag on that sharpener is to wide for the smaller blades.

Are new blades so expensive it's worth buying all that equipment I get it if your running many lawnmowers I also have no idea what all that cost but looks expensive 🙂

I offer a professional mower blade maintenance service to homeowners and contractors.

@johndeaux9987 2 года назад

I guess it's a matter of perspective, I'm just a home owner, not a pro, my mower uses 3 blades at $22 each. I find they need to be sharpened or replaced 1-2 times a season at least. It does add up pretty quickly to just replace and discard....for me anyhow.

@mithgo_outdoor 2 года назад

@@johndeaux9987 homeowners that have started using my service have found they aren’t buying new blades anymore. Under normal operating conditions and proper maintenance my service extends the life of the blade. There’s a lot of life in mower blades if properly maintained. I can service and/or repair a mower blade for less than what a new blade costs. I enjoy educating both homeowners and contractors in my local area. My customers have been thoroughly pleased and most are repeat customers.

@johndeaux9987 2 года назад

@@mithgo_outdoor I agree 100%, that's what I meant. I sharpen my blades vs replacing, that's why the cost of equipment pays for itself quickly.

If you don't have an accurate blade balance, then your spindles can be damaged. Spindles cost far more than blades.

@bruteforce109 Год назад

Hey Mitchell, quick question do u balance your blades while you sharpen or after you sharpen the blades? I start out with a balance then i count passes, after the passes i balance again as i go along. It seems like it takes me a long time to sharpen a set unless its my blades which i take off after 15 hours of use. Do i have the correct process or am i doing it the hard way?

@mithgo_outdoor 9 месяцев назад

sorry for the delayed response. I don't balance the blade until after sharpening.

@cliffjohnson2273 2 года назад

Do you really expect a home owner to spend $200.00 on a blade balancer? I can maybe see for some lawn service might. but a home owner that sharpen one or twice a season?

@mithgo_outdoor 2 года назад

I don't expect anyone to do something that it's out of budget or need. For the homeowner you mention, I'd recommend taking the blades to a professional with the proper equipment to service them. If i was needing a set of blades sharpened that that little I'd never purchase this equipment...the return on investment would never equal out. I operate a service for homeowners and contractors, that's why I have the setup I do. Thanks for tuning in Cliff.

@motorcitymadman146 Год назад

Nail works the same way. Gravity is Gravity.

@mithgo_outdoor Год назад

Contrary to belief, a nail doesn’t show a mower blades balance. When you put a mower blade on a nail it isn’t measuring from the true center of the blade.

@staylofordo7111 Год назад

It has very little friction to affect the balance. Good product.

@fredtaylor9792 Год назад

Your nail is on one side, changing the center of gravity. It can be used but it's not going to be accurate.
