Here's a few pics of what a BX25 can do. Industrial tires, no chains. Snow banks are about 7 ft tall.

Finally got paperwork done. Trailer pulls great. Put tractor on to see how it fit.

Just a few wire connections to make and it's ready for safety

Finally got around to finishing the ramps and installing them.

After seeing how much draw welding my spring hangers on my trailer frame created I decided to use this effect to help straighten my 6 ft fork extensions on my fork lift. They are made from 6x2x1/4 channel and had 1.75 inch bows from lifting 5000# racks of granite over 6 or 7 years. I ran a bead...

Painting the top of the deck was easy, but crawling around underneath with a spay gun wouldn't be much fun, so we made it easier.

Finished putting deck on this morning. That 3# expanded is definitely a pain to cut. Two 4 x 8 sheets completed the deck with almost zero waste. Now the painting has to be finished. Looks like spraying will waste lots of paint. Lots of air to paint.

Got the deck metal on one side. The 3# expanded metal is tough to cut. Don't have Torch or plasma so had to cut with a zip disk. This deck is very stiff and doesn't go bong like diamond plate with every step.

Put fenders on this morning

Got the wheels on before rain started

More pics Wouldn't fit thru doors, had to out it on a dolly and use forklift to pull outside.

A Few more pictures. After welding the spring hangers I noticed a 3/4 draw in the stringers. Not good! The plans called for stitch welds between the 2x6 rail and the 2x6 angle. I did a continuous weld, and monitored the draw as I progressed. Started in the middle and worked my way to the ends...

Thought somebody would notice that. Other side of clamp has no rubber pad. Can't remember why I did that, but it worked fine. Decking is 3# expanded metal, so no decking screws. A few more pics.

Sorry messed that post up. Rails are 2x6x. 125 tube A few more pics. Used the fork lift to keep the welding as easy as possible.

Decided I needed a trailer to move my BX25 from one property to another. Borrowing and renting proved to be a pain. To move the tractor and a piece of equipment or two I figured a 16' car trailer would be about right. Searched the net and found a set of plans I liked. Had them in PDF format in...

i just bought a Walco WC40 thru my dealer. $2250 setup and delivered to my door. Identical to Wally. Only difference is the color (only grey available). Tried it out yesterday, it works great on my BX25. cut stuff up 3"+ with no hint of slowing down or strain on tractor.

I have been looking at chippers for the last couple of months and have read most of the posts about chippers on this site. Many feel the 4" Wally to be a great chipper and will work successfully on a BX25. My dealer priced one for me and also suggested a Walco Renegade WC40 at a much lower...
