The Poor Mans way to sharpen Green Teeth

[@darrelpederson2595]

This has been my favorite video. I learned a lot today. I bought a big drill press at an auction two weeks ago for 150.00 and mounted my grinder on it and bought a diamond wheel but haven't used it yet. I am glad you shared all those safety tips because I am a little scared of using it to be honest with you. I really want to see a video on the drill press mount to see if I did it right. Thanks again!

Just changed teeth on my 630B vermeer, just a tip, harbor freight is currently running a deal on a Pittsburgh brand 25 inch breaker bar for $14.99, I had 1 bolt so tight I put a 5 foot long cheater pipe on the end of that breaker bar, completely expected it to break but it didn't and it broke the bolt loose, great $15.00 investment. It saved the day! Enjoying the vids here in southeast Kansas.

[@garywoods2986]

I enjoy your videos. I am recently retired as a LEO. I have been purchasing equipment to start a stump grinding business. The tips you provide are informative.

[@scottcobel5726]

me too retired state trooper, started yesterday and mad 800$ in five hours but charged way to little

[@justinrainier4310]

Been grinding for a couple of years but not full time. I stack my stumps and rent a machine. I have been watching your videos and they are really helpful. Thanks for your honesty and for making the videos. Very helpful for the guys getting started. Honestly, your video where you explain your pricing and how you get jobs as a subcontractor gave me the insight/confidence to reach out to local tree guys and the amount of work O got exploded. I pick up the first machine I'm buying on Friday!

[@mustangrebuilder]

That is awesome!

Thanks boss. Im a landscaper, driveway restoration company. I have been mulling over buying a stump grinder for 3 years.

Glad it was helpful!

[@billmakros7873]

Great videos sir, what a great way to save money on teeth, problem is for me is that i run from 7 till 5 pm then have to go look at tree jobs amd stump jobs till dark, i have been wanting to sharpen my own teeth forever, i dont have the time, so i just buy a ton of new teeth and run! Love watching your videos, and now that i have freat guys working for me , think im going to start sharpening my own! Thanks for the kick in the u know where! God bless

[@mustangrebuilder]

I understand ..I do it on rainy days and I also send them out to be retipped at www.wit-sonquality.com/services/ mention me Mustang rebuilder (youtube) or Adams stump grinding and get a small discount ..hope that helps

[@anthonysanchez9746]

Great safety information👌👌👌.

[@mcciaccio]

Thanks, I have been spoiled and had a buddy that worked at a shop who sharpened them for me. He no longer works there, so Im going to have to do it myself now.

[@mustangrebuilder]

Right on

[@shaneseguin9824]

Ya it is amazing how dust can get you even outside! Have you ever had to grind the elongated teeth,the ones that are more the shape of a horse track. If so, is it done even remotely the same way because of the length of the tooth?. I have the bench grinder, and the drill press tools already when needed just going to grab a green wheel to start but the tooth being not round I am thinking it would be different but hey I figured I would pick your brains on the subject first if that's cool brother! Thanks for all your tips btw, saving me alot of lessons learned the hard way! Appreciate it

[@williamfelts7530]

Love the videos I'm not a pro I have a small home owner stump grinder I have lots of trees some die mowing sucks when there are stumps mess up mower blades I don't take them deep I just grind below surface but hitting rocks and dirt gets expensive even on home owner grinders thanks again

[@mattcooper4405]

I know this is a 3 year old video but I’m glad I saw it at least for the safety tips, haven’t thought about the dust factor and contaminants that come from these teeth and green wheel, just bought one and will be sharpening mine soon, thanks

[@mustangrebuilder]

Glad it was helpful!

[@chrisstathopulo9887]

Great Video on how to resharpen the grinder teeth. The wheel you showed was a 100 grit diamond Wheel D1A1 4"x1/4"x1 1/4". There are numerous grit options on ebay for this same D1A1 wheel. Thanks for the video.

[@mustangrebuilder]

Hey, I just wanted to say thank you for all your help with this.

I recently bought a sc30tx. Looking for your opinion, switching over to green teeth.

[@mustangrebuilder]

You will notice an improvement

[@andrewwastien]

what green teeth series were you grinding with that wheel? they all have different diameter and they might need a different diamond size wheel

[@mustangrebuilder]

900's

[@farmerbob728]

Nice video as usual. Again learning from someone who has lots of experience. When I use a grinder or sander,, as well as using the mask and safety glasses. I have a regular fan that is blowing on me as well as the grinder. This way the dust doesn't lay around.

[@mustangrebuilder]

Great tip!

[@87GP400]

Thanks for the information !

[@mustangrebuilder]

You bet!

[@scottcobel5726]

silica dust leads to black lung, so great job pointing that out. anywhere there is sand you will find silica dust but the fine particles are what gets you so where your mask. what grit wheel is that?

[@mustangrebuilder]

I think 150

[@liampattinson9718]

Hey buddy. Been watching your videos from England , after I got myself a bandit hb20 in July. Been running the grinder to help grow my tree and fencing business. I got myself a silicon carbide wheel for my bench grinder , however the wheels thickness is the same as my green tooth 700. Because of this I can’t get a groove/dip onto the tooth. Although it leaves a nice edge it’s more 90 degree / a flat surface rather than the dip / bowl shape that the tooth comes in. I’m wondering is this a deal breaker , before I go and sharpen a full set is it worth getting a thinner wheel I see you recommend a 1/4” diamond wheel to really get in to that groove on the tooth. If I was to sharpen each tooth and give it a nice edge but not angled is that a waste of time ? It seems difficult to find diamond tipped wheels that aren’t crazy thin over here, they’re all designed for cutting tiles and maybe 2-4 mm thick. And the silicon carbide wheel is the only one I could find so may be difficult finding a thinner wheel in uk. Any advice appreciated buddy. If my explanation is unclear I could send pictures of the tooth next to the wheel so you can see my issue if you send an email address. Any advice appreciated and have a great new year buddy Pat !

[@mustangrebuilder]

Diamond wheel is the way to go but having the sharp edge ok also ... years ago many professional sharpeners would sharpen till flat and they still worked ... try alli express or ebay for the diamond wheel

[@suburban999]

I see the diamond wheels on ebay .but they are all different grits.which one do I use? Excellent information

[@mustangrebuilder]

100 to 150 grit

[@franturner6335]

Hello, this is how I sharpen my green teeth as well. I typically purchase throughout the season and sharpen buckets & buckets over the winter. I use a full masked respirator and have a vacuum near the wheel to suck up the nasty dust. I run vacuum for about 30 minutes, stop grinding for about 30 minutes (allows vacuum to cool down) and repeat the process. I use a gallon milk container and cut a section out to form around wheel & stick the vacuum end (just the hose) into the containers spout. Masked respirator and hearing protection are a must. Vacuum contains the mess and easy cleanup. Thanks brother for the video’s

[@mustangrebuilder]

Thanks for the fantastic feedback

Hey thanks for the info. How many hours on the teeth before you sharpen. I’m talking average wear that just rounds the cutting edge a bit. Not rocks and crap.

Depends sometimes I can get 2 weeks out of a tooth that is a lead tooth and more out of the ones set back

Whats going on Brother.... got a request on a video. Could you tell us a story on how to handle when you have to eat a job. ( basically make,nothing on it, and even lose $ on it)...

[@mikemason3148]

So uh did just get my 1/4" Diamond grinding wheel In from Amazon. As I sharpen my teeth for my stump grinder it looks like it is putting more of a flat surface on than a sharpened edge. I am grinding very softly not putting too much pressure. With that being sad if you think I am doing something wrong please let me know thank you.

[@mustangrebuilder]

Dont worry about the flatness ..look at thee edge which is most important ( sharp )

green wheels normally don't list the grit but a diamond wheel does and should be around 100 grit and yes you can do a chipped tooth but you have to hold steady and light touch
