    Default Replacing Worn Out Belly Pan in 18" Wood Chipper

    No before shots, but these shots of the Belly Pan after I cut it out, shows what it was like before hand.

    General shots of where the Belly Pan has been cut out from the machine. Will grind all of this back in the morning and tack new Pan in place.

    If the weather holds off, should see the new Pan tacked in, then welded and re-assembled by tomorrow night, then I can get back onto repairing tray on the truck and a few mods whilst it's off the truck.

    Default All back together ready to go to work

    Big day was had today, ground all the old welds and surplus from all the oxy cutting yesterday, new pan dropped in and temporarily bolted in and weld positions marked, everything then doubled checked, welded in and new internal side bars welded in, which assist to blow the chips out the chute.

    All went well in putting it back together and is now ready to go back into action next week, will let the pictures do the talking.

    Cheers Cookie, it wasn't really hard work just fiddly with climbing in and out and hot when welding, worst was when I was under it doing the welding.
