Stumpers Going to TCI Expo

[stumper63]

Any stumpers able to go to the TCI Expo in Hartford next week? I can't make it but would be interested if you see any new products or machines at the show that would help us all out in the stump grinding biz.

The Bandit Sidewinder handlbar unit that pivots looks neat if you use that type of machine. I don't now, but may add one to the pen as needed.

I picked up the StumpRGuard folding screen a few months ago, seemed expensive at $250, but now don't work w/o it. Adds peace of mind when working near homes/cars, also way less cleanup when working in parking lot islands, etc.

I recently switched to Sandvik wheel/teeth on my 252 and am very impressed with tooth life, less chip spread, speed, etc.

Anyway, let us know what you find!

I'll be there (only a few hours drive from NJ).

I'm in the market for a new machine next spring, so I'll be looking at what's new.

I'm running a Carlton 4400-4 and Rayco 1625jr.

GreenTeeth have redesigned their product.
No more nuts on the teeth, they are friction held and the new pockets are thinner and sleeker . . . it looks really good.

More info tomorrow.
