So, these are Type E teeth which are hardened steel not carbide as most others are.
I am curious
1) how many hours are guys getting on a set of teeth and or between sharpening. (I realize with different hardness trees and rocks etc. can change the time frame but I am curious on an average).
These teeth became somewhat rounded so to speak as you can see it the photo. They still worked great but assume the were clubbing the wood crushing it as appose to cutting it. This is why I chose to simply put an edge back on them.
I know these teeth are reversible and also have a second set of teeth but I'd like to get the most life out of each side as I can.
2) Also, being this unit is a TWIN, meaning I can rotate which side the three point is, I'm curious if anyone has used it both ways and can state the pros / cons of each direction. Typically I drive backword into larger stuff, then pull forward over thinner brush to chip better. Curious who actually has this machine and done both. Being this machine is fairly new on the market (2 years I think) and the smallest unit (aside from the 125 model) FAE manufactures there isn't a ton of info on it.
I must say I only have about 60 hours on this attachment and it's by far my favorite. I hate taking it off. But with 60 hours and having a good grasp on using it, I'm never afraid to learn more.
