My B2620 Projects

My good friend and neighbour down the road bought this Wallenstein BXM32 chipper/shredder for us to both use. It works very good. I have put stuff bigger than 3 inch through the chipper no problem and the shredder literally turns leaves to dust I blow back onto the lawn.

As you can see I added some 4x4 wooden feet to the bottom of it. His new BX would not lower it down far enough for it to sit on the ground with his quick hitch on, so he would have had to fight to put it on and off. That was the only problem we found with it.

Love the forks for doing firewood and storm cleanups too. No more bending over to cut the logs.

Doing firewood. My big splitter is home made by my father when he had the welding and fab shop. It was made in the late 70's early 80's? It was originally a Lincoln welding machine trailer. it's been through a few engines as he always lent it to all his friends who did their best to kill it.
It currently has a 1982 Toyota Tercel 4 cylinder engine on it.

But it's getting tired and hard to get parts for, so I recently bought a new Forest King 25 ton splitter.

It was 534 pounds in the crate and my B with the clamp on bucket forks lifted it off my trailer and carried it across the yard with no issue at all. I was pleasantly surprised. I didn't think it would since those clamp on forks add so much leverage further out past the bucket.

Couple pics of the LED lights I replaced my dealer installed halogen work lights with.
I think the forward light bar is 22 or 24 inch, 120W combination spot and flood.

Rear I put an 80W flood. Rear facing pics comparing halogen and LED.

More of the LED lights at work. No issue with glare while in blowing snow.

They are great mowing too because they light up 360* around the tractor, so I can see the edge of the deck on both sides.

I also added some rear view mirrors so I don't have to keep looking backwards when snow blowing.
Got them from golfcartsandaccessories.com.

They are nice quality, adjustable and were cheap. I did drill two small holes in my loader stanchions, but in a non-load bearing area.

Pics 1 and 2 are from when I replaced my septic. Dug it with a mini-ex, but back filled and landscaped with the B.

The other pics are a load of 7/8 A gravel and a load of sandy loam I brought home and moved with the B, on top of the previous 330 tonne it moved and spread.

A few more of some road work in my back yard.

Last set from the road work.

Well, I woke up to this wonderful snow again this morning. But the sun came out in the afternoon and I get 5 hours of cutting, splitting and piling done. Then another hour after I was in for supper.
