Are you going to do yours like this video, or off the side of the bucket?

I would suggest to use joystick tilt also with front and back movement.

Probably a good name for it.

Dear Carl,

That's an amazing tool. I'd love to have one, and I only have about four stumps. That really grinds through the stump. What kind of tree stump was it?

Can I make ask a couple more questions?

• Wouldn't you want a really solid lid to it to contain the inevitable rock/tooth failure?
• Would some locktite/lock nuts on the pillow block bolts/nuts be good?
• Would a bar/guard to protect the end of the axle as you manouver the grinder?(after you cut it down)

Great job!

All the best,

Peter

I am building the civer this week. Those bolts are self locking but I threw on some blue as well. Good idea on the protective cover. Will use some of the scrap from the cover build.
