Do you guys sharpen your stump grinder teeth ?
There seems to be a question of sharpening vs recapping.
Any thoughts?

I’ve never known anyone with a stump grinder that didn’t sharpen the teeth until they needed recapping or replacement.

An example of cost of sharpening v retipping v replacement. https://jeffssharpening.com/
Assuming there are stump grinding services in your area, there are likely local vendors who sharpen and retip. YMMV…

Your BX has enough HP to run a WG24 like I have. You would just have to take lighter cuts than you can with a bigger tractor. At about 420lb your 3 point should be OK with it.This just makes me want a bigger tractor....
Question would be if your BX has sufficient mass to hold onto it or if it would be bull ride where you have to hang on a lot longer than 8 seconds. There are folks here who run them on B’s and LX’s. Not sure if there are any running on BX’s.
