    WC88 chipper operation review

    I finally used my chipper, for a total of 5 operational hours over three days. For the most part it went well. The trailer hitch works great for my set up. The chips are more like course sawdust than the chips you would buy at a nursery. I believe this is related to the wood entering the...

    Dozer, found in concrete

    Found this on facebook. It is/was in the Kootenays dam in B.C. Canada. Supposedly it got stuck and was too much work to get out. The tracks are on backwards to give it better traction when backing up. It's on the "lost kootenays" facebook site.

I used 3/16 x 2 inch flat bar for the left side ( the first one I made) and 1/8 x 1 1/2 (it's what I had on hand) for the right one...

    Lube on wheel stud/bolt threads.

    I personally use a a small amount of coppercoat anti seize on wheel studs/bolts when installing wheels. I have never had a damaged wheel from one coming loose but have lost studs, nuts, bolts from seized threads that were put on dry. I also check my torque after installing wheels.

    Front bumper chain box

    Some one else made one for a different series, which gave me the idea for this one. It seems to work well. I am concerned about damaging the paint on the nose of the grill but will just need to be carful. The cut outs in the corners and the holes in the middle should kept the dirt from building...

    I finally found a mug that fits the cup holder. It is a "Bubba" from Canadian Tire. It holds one US quart or 950ml. It works well, stays in place but is still easy to pull out.
