A simple alteration for better function.

I see your teeth are looking a bit dull, digging too much rock!

How are the pins fixed in place on your Vario bucket? Epoxy?

The ripper tooth works xllnt! Thanx buddy.

Haha! Yes there been some rock digging, actually where i dig there is a mix of garvel, rocks and soil so i guess it wears a bit, but thats just scale, right?

I fixed my pins with LockTight 638 ("Cylindrical fixing", spelling?) seem to work fine so far.

Glad the ripper is a good helping hand for you down there, that clay look sticky!

Will watch your new vid later today!

Now back to work.
Keep it up Joe!

My dragline bucket teeth look about the same after 80+hrs of digging in sandy soil. Mine are made from C1018 cold finish steel. The milling machine marks wore off the first weekend out digging and the edges rounded some. I guess we need to make some tougher replaceable teeth for these so called TOYS
