Making Stump Grinder 15hp

  • I built a machine for grinding / milling stump. I made a 350mm disc, and to drive the shield used gas power engine 420cc 15HP. I reduced the rotation on the disc. I reduced the rotation on the disk with teeth by using 120mm pulleys on the disc, 80mm pulley for the engine. In order for the machine to be safe, I made covers of thick sheets, brakes and an emergency switch that immediately turns off the machine.
    The machine does a great job, the disk rotation is not too high or too low, easy to maneuver even in difficult terrain.

    This was a wonderful example of the joy of do it yourself. I absolutely love watching someone that enjoys building something from scratch rather than going out and buying it. I used to do this myself and I can't understand the people that give a thumbs down,how can you not be impressed by the ingenuity and skills required to do this. Keep up the good work and thanks for the entertaining videos.

      A person with the tools and knowledge is exciting to watch. Why has our education system done away with shop classes. Youth of America should pursue skill centers of there area, to learn trades. This man is only able to do this by his learning all these trades, like welding, metal lathe, laying out and fabricating parts, also electrical knowledge. Thank for the video. You would have made one of the best shop teachers around.

    I run a stump grinding business, the trick is to always stay on the side of the stump so the teeth are cutting with the wood grain and not above it cutting across the wood grain. It cuts faster and your machine and teeth will last longer.
    Sweep across the side of the stump and down until you reach full depth, then move in for the next section.
    Cutting top down also causes chatter because too much of the disc radius is cutting.

      @@DavidFlores-mt3bm I run commercial stump grinders for work, to answer your question, yes. If you hit rocks it will prematurely wear the tungsten carbide inserts and will chip them. A good operator can avoid mist rocks but some are inevitable. But in my opinion its still a better option than burning stumps. Its not as easy as it sounds and if you try and burn a stump and fail, that chared layer protects the remaining stump from decay for a lot longer than if you were to leave it alone.

      Thats a wee bit if an exaggeration... It takes skill, sure but hardly decades worth of experience... and as far as tooling; mayyybe $1000 worth of tools.

      And when, not “if”, but WHEN you need a job done- just take out a second mortgage to hire a “real man”, and stay in debt, working on the plantation until your heart gives out.

    Some extra cutting teeth on the side of the cutting disc might help with the side to side movement. Nice build 👍.

  • @kniefi
    @kniefi Před 2 lety +4

    Very nicely built!
    Although I think a stump remover with a geared shaft which turns horizontally like a big "screw" and peels off slices of the stump is much fastet and has much more power.
    I have used one if the big-wheeled stump routers before and with big freshly cut pinetrees it was simply too much. even though the thing had 20ish HP, it would stall and end up burning the wood but could not cut through.
    .There would be a HUGE market, if you could make one of those rotor style stump cutters for a couple thousand maybe - they are SUPER expensive!
    But really really good.
    We fell over 100 trees on out land and trust me - the difference in time/labour is not even funny.

    @calholli Před 3 lety +19

    9:08 ... you should have drilled a couple of holes in that square tube so you could weld onto the large shaft insert too.. makes it a lot stronger (not that it really needs it).. And if you make the blade very heavy--- like maybe 4 plates thick, it won't be as hard on your engine if you hit something too hard. The heavier the blade, the better. Great build.

  • @martinwyke
    @martinwyke Před 2 lety +3

    That was a great build, it is pity you couldn't get hubs and wheels with a matching stud pattern.
    A good follow up would be an adaptor, a feed mechanism to use it as chipper.

    I'm not commenting to say how great your welds look, nor am I commenting to say how what you've made here looks like it should have just been taken off of an assembly line, and I'm definitely not commenting in absolute awe of how well this thing works. No. I'm commenting to say that wherever the hell you are in the world, you have amazing looking soil. I'm in southern Louisiana, living on a river delta, and even our soil doesn't look that nice. Our soil is clumpy with clay and if you dig down more than 3 feet you've hit water. The ground in your yard looks like it was just poured from a bag of Miracle Grow Potting Soil.

    The only thing i'd do a bit different is making it a double row. Yes, overkill for most common small trees, but i've always got better results whenever i rented the double row cutters vs single row (or single disk, if you will). Awesome build, in fact, i think this is even better than a commercial one, certainly doesn't shake half as much.
